Jabberwocky Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 Im not sure if its been mentioned yet because Im too lazy to read through the thread, but theyre going to radically drop the prices of nicotine patches and other stop smoking products. At least it`ll help the smokers who want to stop. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Darbees Posted April 2, 2007 Share Posted April 2, 2007 By starting the ban in April instead of July in Wales they have actually said that an extra 100 lives will be saved. I wonder who those 100 people are. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At least it`ll help the smokers who want to stop. Thats a good move, the patches cost a fortune. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wonder who those 100 people are. iraqi/ afghani children maybe, less cigarettes will be smoked and less tax raised to spend on ammuntion. they can't say banning smoking will save lives, it might prolong them and who in the right mind wants pensioners living and claiming longer than they do already Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
