My husband and I quit about 4.5 years ago. Of course he stayed smoke free, me another whole story. Anyway when when did that I would take the money and set it aside and still do. We have new garage doors, a couple nice vacations, new lawn mower, I can't think right now, but we have a lot of things paid for in cash because we save our cig money. Keep doing it.

This is a great way to validate your quit! Use an account or a jar and really put in the money! What a reward you will have after 6 months! Josie, Support Specialist

Great idea tammatt, watch it build and by the time of your 6 month anniversary, you will have over $1600 set aside - that'll buy a tidy reward and well-deserved too. Eyes on the 2 prizes - nice reward but more importantly 6-months smokefree!! I await March 1st 2008 with interest as will your bank account!!!! Good Luck! :) [B]My Milage:[/B] [B]My Quit Date: [/B]5/18/2004 [B]Smoke-Free Days:[/B] 1204 [B]Cigarettes Not Smoked:[/B] 24,080 [B]Amount Saved:[/B] �6,020.00 [B]Life Gained:[/B] [B]Days:[/B] 193 [B]Hrs:[/B] 9 [B]Mins:[/B] 23 [B]Seconds:[/B] 30

Excellent idea, tammatt! I wish I had had the discipline to do that from the start. Keep it up and you will have that 6 month reward before you know it! It's also important to reward yourself as you go along, though. Make sure you give yourself little pats on the back for getting through triggers, for telling the junkie to take a long walk off a short pier, for not smoking TODAY. I have no doubt that you can do this tammatt, but do it one day at a time, OK?
