Obligatory you should quit, it burns the ends of your DNA, causes you to age faster, you know the drill

People feel weird about investing in a bad habit. However, if you continue to do the genocidal drug, you might as well save money. A pack in my area costs $10, and I need a new one every 4 days or so. (30/4)*$10= $75 a month, or $900 a year.

Alternatively, you buy a rolling machine, and pack it yourself. I bought 1 lb of tobacco for $16, that's enough for 600 cigarettes, or 3 cartons. A carton costs $100, and 3 of them cost $300. That means when you roll, past the initial investment, you only pay 5% of what you did previously, bringing your habit down to ~$3.75 a month, or essentially free. You'll save a ridiculous amount of money. If you quit the following month you would still save money. Once you quit, you can give your roller to someone else.

Rolling has the same filter and contents as a store bought pack, it's just sold as "pipe tobacco" in bags.

Maybe with that with money saved you'll have more resources and less stress that will make it easier to quit. If you're going to kill yourself slowly, then don't fork over your life savings to do it.
