Ha ha Great story -- thanks for sharing -- er, confessing!

Well Tilly - You are one step ahead of me...I was trying to figure out how to get the patches without going to the courses (I failed!) so I had to go on paying for mine...now if only I weren't so lazy...I'm sure I could act like a smoker...I had lots of practice.

In January 2006, there was a study done by our Ontario Government(I think) on NRT's. Only so many were accepted and you only had to answer some questions on your smoking habits. I got 8 weeks free patches and unfortunately used a few here and a few there until they were gone. Had to buy new patches for this quit, but at least I'm smoke free!

Tilly, Hee hee hee :eg: I always say things are so much better when they're free! Good for you. If it saves you a bit of money, then why not?

Lol at Tilly. Well done you! I am in Fife in Scotland. We are even more advanced here. Our local leisure centre is running a campaign called "Quit n Fit". You can have your choice of NRT free for 12 weeks. Attend either group sessions or solo with counsellor sessions for that 12 weeks. And (once you've done the inductions) get free use of the facilities - gym, pool, aquagym for 12 weeks as well. The meetings and the gym stuff is what makes it for me. Just brilliant at helping you to focus and also to work off some tensions. They have been having really good results here with this combined approach - and yet are struggling to get funding??? madness. Tilly, hope you enjoy those freebies!

Love this post! I sure wish something like that were offered here in the US. I live in tobacco country and the bible belt.
