I don't smoke and never have, so I have no comparison to make there. I don't want to highjack your thread and if it you object, I'll delete my comment but your question got me to thinking about the price of things now as compared to the "old days". When I was a little girl, movies cost $.25. Truly. My son always teases me and says "Yes, Mom, I know. And you walked uphill to school both ways in the snow". But it really did only cost $.25 to see a movie, so if I had a dime extra, I could buy two candy bars and watch a double feature! Now do you still feel old?
