Good for you all, I quit 13 years ago and am healthier and richer than I was back then. Don't miss it at all, among the best things I ever did. Keep up the good work, it isn't easy, but it is rewarding when you accomplish it!

The first year, I put the money in a "piggy bank" every time I would have purchased a pack of smokes. We went to Hawaii for a week on the savings...after that it was a no-brainer: Kill myself smoking, or go to Hawaii every year.

Make sure you do something nice for yourself as a reward (save and buy that something you always wanted but couldn't "afford" because of all the money you were spending smoking)
