Do you use other nicotine products? - Page 3

Snake Hips · 09-25-2009, 08:12 PM

I smoke a cigarette now and then (2 a day at the heaviest) because I enjoy the nicotine rush occasionally and I enjoy smoking tobacco in general. Never could get addicted to it though. I enjoy clove cigarettes too.

Snuff (nasal) I use very seldomly, but it comes in handy on long drives when I'm tired. Never chewed in my life.

Better stock up while you can then. As of the 22nd, all flavored cigarettes with the exception of menthol were banned.

Yeah, it sucks. I bought a bunch, but my B&M still has two cubes in the back room and will sell them to me for $1.99 a pack whenever I want them. Like I said I have one now and then, so I should be good for a while fortunately. But I'll miss them.

SmokeyJoe · 09-25-2009, 09:15 PM

Cigars... period!

09-25-2009, 10:49 PM

Well on rare occasiona I dip soe Red Man, but mostly I smoke a pipe f I don't have a Cigar to chew on..

JJG · 09-25-2009, 11:19 PM

ex cigarette smoker checking in.

It was actually cigars that got me to quit smoking cigarettes, and I didn't just replace one with the other. I didn't smoke at all for two months. Now I only smoke between 1-3 cigars per week, generally on Friday and/or Saturday.

shvictor · 09-25-2009, 11:36 PM

I've been Copenhagen free for 1 month now after 25 plus years. Now its just cigars

Ashcan Bill · 09-26-2009, 12:35 AM

Just cigars now.

Gave up cigs a few years ago. The last time I smoked a pipe must have been back in the mid seventies. Trying a pipe again has crossed my mind on occasion, but I think I'll probably stick to cigars from here on out.

09-26-2009, 12:44 AM

Smoked for 15 years but it was killing me. I stopped 3 years ago. Cigars are damaging also but I average 2 every 3 days rather than sucking 20 or so down in a day. Better for my asthma.

09-26-2009, 09:42 AM

I'm still fairly new to cigar smoking and I only do it on the weekends. I love it and am still testing the cigars to find the best.

Finding "the best" is a Quixotic dream, but good luck to you!

09-26-2009, 11:24 PM

first thing I smoked was a cigarette. That was back when I was like 15. I maybe smoked 5 packs of them in my whole life. But I always was interested in cigars. I have tried chew before and had a good experience with it. But I stick with cigars now days and I try to limit myself to no more than 3 cigars a week.

Cigars were harder to get when I wasn't old enough to buy tobacco because I didn't know anyone who smoked em. But It is all I am into now that I am 18.

You are now as free as you will ever be. But you have to stay away from your triggers. Mine was weed. I quit very effectively
many times, and had no need to ever start up again. But if I ever went anywhere knowing that I would be smoking a joint or
taking home weed, I would get some cigs. One called for the other. 6 or 8 months of smoke-freeness down the tubes.
For many, social alcohol is the trigger. Could you stay away from it? That doesn't mean you will go back to smoking, but
you will be tested like you can't believe. Patches, gum...all that crap is useless. You only need to stop, and show some
backbone, and stay away from triggers for a while.

BlackDog · 09-28-2009, 05:59 PM

I voted "Yes, other products." I use nasal snuff several times per day, and smoke an occasional pipe, but mostly I smoke cigars. Never smoked a cigarette.

cherrybomb · 10-02-2009, 07:22 AM

keep it up Scott!! I have been cigarette free for 7 months now and it is easier than you can ever imagine. It is all a mental game. Pm me if you ever need any advice or support

Savvy · 10-02-2009, 07:45 AM

I've used most kinds of tobacco at one time or another...

Started smoking cigarettes in the military...quit after about 5 months as I found it rather pointless and I didn't really enjoy it, it was more of something I just did to get out of work for a bit and BS with some of the guys.

I chewed in the military as well. Did it at tech school, passed the time in the dorms with a dip in (broke a couple of the rules in the dorms...) again it was purely social. Quit after tech school.

I occasionally will smoke hookah with a few friends, but it's a pretty irregular thing. I'm not a huge fan, but I don't hate it either.

I've used snus. I kind of enjoyed it, and I may buy some more in the future...

I use snuff in the autumn/winter. I also talk my friends into trying it, most of them like it. I have to thank ReplicantArgent and ScottishSmoker for getting me into the world of snuff. I'll be ordering some more of it soon, seeing as its starting to get to be that time of year again.

I have a decent collection of pipes, and I usually smoke them in the cooler months. My piping has been kicking up again, and I like it

Been smoking cigars for about the last three years. Had a lot of fun with it, met a lot of good people through it, one of my better decisions of things to do in the last three years. I don't intend to quit, ever. Although my smoking has dropped a bit since I've gone into the military, I still have a nice stockpile, and I very much enjoy the hobby.

ucla695 · 10-03-2009, 07:21 PM

Why wouldn't I?

RightAJ · 10-08-2009, 06:45 AM

Anything and everything!!! Gotta love the taste of a nice cheek or Red or a lip once in a while. Cigs a few times a week, and a pipe about every 2 or 3. What can I say? I love my tobacy

Cigars are my thing though. The others are just when I can't have a cigar or I'm in the mood for them which is usually not too often.
