"Cigarettes are the only substance sold that, when the user follows the instructions carefully, will result in the consumer becoming toxic, chronically ill or dead!"

The cost of smoking

Ever wondered how much money you spend/waste on cigarettes a day? What about a year? What about 20 years? How about how much time you’ve wasted standing outside a pub, the office, a party having a quick fag?

But it’s not only the time and cost of smoking that’s scary: smoking kills around 114,000 people in the UK each year.

Of these deaths, about 42,800 are from smoking-related cancers, 30,600 from cardiovascular disease and 29,100 die slowly from emphysema and other chronic lung diseases
