how high would prices per pack have to go before you quit?

Well, I smoke cheap tabs. Richmond Superkings, now around £4.25 a pack. About 60 a week (i.e. when I'm not in the house). In the house, I smoke rollies (usually, golden aniseed or golden vanilla), about 75 grams a week £10.68

So that's £23.43 a week. I can cope with the odd 6p increase twice a year on 25 grams

Well... since all the cigs I smoke are scrounged (not that there's many) ... the answer depends entirely on my friends' budget and generosity.

they're getting to the point now where I am literally turned off of smoking my usual amount (1 pack every 2-3 days) due to the price. it's really getting obscene.

I wish I was paying Rhode Island prices let alone UK ones. Time to go R-MO for a day again I think Grin

Ouch, no. Wrong word apparently. I only smoke other people's cigarettes. (And not often, either.)
