Cathy p Posted March 7, 2007 #3 Share Posted March 7, 2007 A cruise is a great time to quit. You have so many things to do that you don't have time to think about missing that cig. Don't mean to start a war on here, it is just that I am on a cruise 4/14 and that day will be 3 years since I quit.:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phish tales Posted March 7, 2007 #4 Share Posted March 7, 2007 marlboro i think were 2/$35 -- i know you can only bring 1 carton per adult travelling in your party. under no circumstance will you be allowed any more, as they will be confiscated..

CruiseZapper Posted March 7, 2007 Author #7 Share Posted March 7, 2007 thanks, i think it's great if you can stop smoking, i've never smoked so i can't be a judge on how easy it is, i've been on many cruises and never noticed before because no one in my family smokes, this is a friend of mine at work that wants me to get them for her, i don't mind picking them up for her if she wants me too, i just didn't know how much to tell her to send,i don't smoke, don't knock anyone else for smoking but i will not spend my money on cigarettes for anyone, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
isujim Posted March 7, 2007 #8 Share Posted March 7, 2007 Well that is what happens when people make assumptions and just dont answer the question:) Have a great cruise. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chasetf Posted March 8, 2007 #9 Share Posted March 8, 2007 If you are a smoker and plan on an extended pre / post cruise stay you may want to check out local prices. As an ex-smoker, I am curious when in different countries as to the price .....if I still needed them. In Scotland they were 6 pounds in a machine. That would be almost $12 US a pack (20).:eek: In New Zealand when we stopped to gas up the car, they were about $10 US a pack (20) in their "Stop and Go" Market.

nbevins Posted March 8, 2007 #10 Share Posted March 8, 2007 I smoked for 35 years and qit 6 weeks ago--I used the new drug Chantix and it is great..Cravings are very limited--right from day one. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cathy p Posted March 8, 2007 #11 Share Posted March 8, 2007 Melika091800, thanks for the congrats. Nbevins, that is fantastic. It is not easy by any means. If I had not walked into my doctors office and he did not say that I would be on oxygen the rest of my life within a month, I would probably be with everyone else puffing away. I enjoyed smoking and every now and then get a smell of one and go hum I would love to have one. I am 56 and do not desire to carry around an oxygen bottle and hope I never have to. Some of my best friends smoke and as long as we are out in the open I have no problem with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jixjix6305 Posted March 9, 2007 #14 Share Posted March 9, 2007 We paid 19.95 a carton for all Marb varieties...they did run out of Ultra lights very quickly. They also had a deal 2 for 29.95 and some nifty half cartons that looked like giant flip top boxes...I think they were 14.95. Let us know. We usually do the 2 carton deal so we have some on the trip and some to take home. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know I won't be smoking on the cruise for I'll be with my son. I am a current smoker, but never smoked around my son. So vacation will be the perfect time to quit for me. I'll be too busy, hopefully, to think about wanting a ciggy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
newmexicoNita Posted March 9, 2007 #17 Share Posted March 9, 2007 yes, congrats to anyone who has quit, but let's not turn this thread into a smoking versus non smoking issue. $22.00 is about right for a carton, the choices are limited and 2 cartons will run about $35 to $37.00. Hope this help OP when telling her friend how much to send. NMnita Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
