Confessions of an Ex-Smoker
Times are different now than when I grew up. At the young age of 7 years old my dad was giving me a dollar to go to the store and buy him a pack of Camel, no filters. I got to keep the change to buy a soda pop and bag of chips or candy for myself. Not only was it legal for the store to sell me the cigarettes (with a note from dad of course) but it was common and cheap (~30 cents). On occasion I would pick up an extra pack of cigarettes for myself and my friends to smoke down in the gully by our elementary school. I was in first grade and I was a smoker.
My parents didn’t know I smoked until I turned 15. I grew up stealing Salem Lights from my mom and Carlton’s from my gramma. I didn’t smoke a pack a day or anything, but I smoked. It wasn’t until the doctor told me I was pregnant in 1992 that I quit. I threw away my cigarettes and refused to smoke while I was pregnant and breathing air for two. Unfortunately after my son was born it didn’t take too long for me to start again. One good argument with his dad and I ran out to buy a pack of Newports. I didn’t quit again until 2003 when I got pregnant with my second son, but old habits die hard and I started smoking again a year or two after he was born.
Over the past 30+ years I wanted to quit smoking a million times, but other than being pregnant with my sons I was never able to. If they had electronic cigarettes like V2 around back then it might have been easier. With tools like those offered in the V2 Cigs Kit a standart kit would have made quitting much easier for me and I would have been healthier and stink-free much sooner. I did finally kick the habit in 2010 as part of a new years resolution, but it took years of cravings and over eating to conquer my addiction.
Today, I’m FREE!
As part of that celebration I’m hoping this 20% OFF code “review20” will help you quit too!
The V2 Standard Kit comes with an automatic and a manual battery, USB Smart Charger, wall adapter and ten flavor cartridges. The Ultimate Starter Kit ramps this up to 25 cartridges, a car charger, a USB-powered battery, another battery, a metal carry case, a portable charging case and a lanyard.

Disclosure: I received compensation for sharing this promotional information with you today, but the story is true and mine.
Wow. I’m seriously stunned and extremely proud of you for quitting. I’ve been a heavy smoker for 10 years now and still can’t find the will to quit. Even with e-cigs they just aren’t the same, I find myself going right back to the pack.
So happy that you were finally able to quit. Hope these helps other to do the same.
