I've smoked for about 14 yrs.. For 12 of those 14 I was a complete Marlboro Light snob. I refused to smoke anything but them. Then DH got laid off and due to financial constraints, we had to either quit or find an alternative. We tried to quit and failed, and then we came across an internet site with really cheap cig's.
I've been smoking a brand called Euro's for a year and a half now (tried other brands and liked them but the site couldn't keep them in stock). I think that anytime I bummed a smoke from other people, they were mediums or full flavored and that's why I resisted anything but Marlboro Light's for so long. Anyone who knows me couldn't believe I would smoke a generic brand (and neither would I before I tried them) and yet now I miss the generic I'm used to when I have to buy a name brand (on the rare occation we order late and have to supplement before our shipment arrives).
At the rate Michigan's cigarette taxes have been going up, you can't beat $9.49 a carton vs. $30-40 a carton. Of course, you have to deal with the occational weird charred tropical bug carcuss or solid chunk of bark/wood in your hots, but overall it's worth it!
