Tobacco Cigarettes Go Up $1.00 Today But Guess What?

All you tobacco smokers beware! If you haven't heard already, go to your local convenient store and ask the new cost for a pack of cigarettes. When you do your jaw will probably hit the floor. Today is July 1st 2009 and today is the day that the price of a pack of cigarettes go up $1.00. Pretty nice rude awakening there right? Well one thing is for sure, the electronic cigarette cost didn't go up $1.00.

Slowly but surely the cost to smoke tobacco cigarettes is going up and how much more expensive they go up no one can predict. This is another reason why tobacco smokers should switch over to the electronic cigarettes. What is the price for a pack of cigarettes now? Like $6.00 or $7.00 right? Ok so that means 10 packs of cigarettes or a carton of cigarettes is going to cost you about $60.00 or $70.00 right? Ok now times that by 4 weeks and you are looking at the same amount some people pay a month for their car payments. Pretty scary huh?

Not only can these electronic cigarettes curve your nicotine cravings, they will help keep you away from getting lung cancer because you don't inhale any carcinogens when you smoke the electronic cigarette. Heck, there isn't even any smoke or smoke smell either because it gives off nicotine water vapor and not smoke.

Electronic Cigarette Refills

Next thing is that you can save over 50% by using the electronic cigarette because you can buy electronic cigarette refills whenever you run out. They have 5 packs of electronic cigarette refills with a bunch of different flavors such as menthol and regular tobacco flavor. The best part is these electronic cigarette refills cost $15.95 per pack of 5 and each pack is equivilent to a carton of tobacco cigarettes. So do the math. A 5 pack of electronic cigarette refills equals $15.00 per week depending on if you smoke a carton of cigarettes a week  and a carton of tobacco cigarettes equals $60.00 per week. Ok so the $45.00 you save can pay a bill or take your spouse out to a nice dinner.

Whatever your opinion is about the electronic cigarette the facts don't lie. You are going to keep paying more and more for tobacco cigarettes because they can charge you more for no reason at all but to help pay the national debt. With the economy the way it is, you have to save as much money as you can at the same time doing the things you love to do most.
