I quit at the right time. Taxes just went through the roof!

Good for you! I've tried to quit many times and once managed for a year and a half.

Now I'm switching to electronic cigarettes which I hear are much healthier. Has anyone tried them?

I've heard of the electronic cigarettes, but I don't know anyone who's tried them. I've heard that they're pretty expensive.

There's a new system that claims to be 50% cheaper than normal cigarettes, or at least here in Europe... they're called Smart Smoker. I'm going to order some soon, I'll let everyone know how I get on!

Do they use actual tobacco, or does it just release nicotine?

They release a flavoured nicotine vapor that is free of carcinogens and other dangerous chemicals so there's no tobacco involved. The sensation is just like inhaling a cigarette, and you even exhale what looks like smoke but it's just vapor.

Well that's really cool. Are they reusable? I'm assuming you have to by cartridges for it, but can you reuse the same "cigarette"?
