And yet you can get nicotine patches etc to help quit smoking ( and no I'm not having a go at smokers )
Of course, as nicotine replacement items replace cigarettes, so smokers are saving money as they give up and reduce intake overall. So, giving an initial batch of nicotines patches / gum etc seem fair enough, then it seems fair enough for smokers to pay for rest, which may actually help them to invest in using items wisely to achieve end result of giving up completely.
