well my advice would be to quit now, i used to smoke (newport shorts) for about 6 1/2 years and i was up to about 1.25 packs a day (or a carton a week on payday) and it was just spent money, and fucking colds every winter (bronchitis)sp?

i quit two years ago (at 23) and im damn proud too =)

thats like a extra tank of gas a week or herb or whatever

anyways just my .02

later,
