Give Me Nicotine Now Or Die

Advantages: Cheaper Than Fags
Disadvantages: Becoming an ex-smoker

...Giving up smoking is hell and don't let a bunch of non-smokers tell you otherwise, my personal battle against Nicotine addiction has been going on for 6 years now. I have tried almost every form of Nicotine Replacement Therapy on the market all of them have plus and down points. The main down point being that nothing feels as good as a cigarette between your fingers, and it is at those points that I definitely do not need a lecture from a non-smoker. IN FACT one of the worst things about giving up smoking is NONSMOKERS, a bunch of self righteous whining good for nothings is what they are, and I am well on the way to joining them. Such thoughts are among the things than in my weaker moments makes me want to stick two fingers up at them and light up. As of next year due to a bunch of whining nonsmokers there will be no smoking in pubs...

I Still Wanted A Ciggie

Advantages: Cheaper and healthier than 20 ciggies
Disadvantages: Didn't stop me smoking

...I wasn't surprised that this category, prior to my op, was empty. In order to review a product and give an opinion on it you do have to try and gain some familiarity with it. Quite frankly when I tried this gum I had an overwhelming urge to spit it out and smoke a whole packet of ciggies rather than give up. But I persisted with it for a while. Nicobrevin Gum is perhaps one of the most bizarre aids to giving up smoking that you will come across. It's a nicotine free gum, claimed to be at its most effective when used along side the 'Nicobrevin 28 Day Capsule Course' (also nicotine free) but available to purchase alone as a support to break the habitual side of smoking addiction. The theory is that when you get the urge to reach for a ciggie you reach for the gum instead. You simply chew a piece until the taste disappears, and can...

Review of Nicobrevin Nicotine Free Gum

NICORETTE INHALOR NICOTINE CARTRIDGES.

Advantages: You still have the physical feel of putting a fag in your mouth!
Disadvantages: The weaning off the inhalor. The price if not on prescription.

...Well, after years and years of smoking (about 30) and many failed attempts at giving up, the last one of which nearly made me go mad with withdrawal symptoms I am now into my 3rd month of not smoking. Thanks to this little white bit of plastic I have done better than I ever have and hopefully I will not go back to it this time. The Nicorette Inhalor is not the most trendy thing to be seen sticking out of your mouth but I have got quite discreet at having a little puff in restaurants and the such like as it is quite small. The withdrawal symptoms I have suffered in the past have not occurred this time. Once the cartridge in the inhalor is activated it delivers quite a strong blast of nicotine and the fact that you do feel that you have had a puff on a cigarette by physically putting the inhalor into your mouth also helps. You...

Review of Nicorette Inhalor Nicotine Cartridges

Quite literally 'Meat free'

Advantages: Substantial, healthy, low fat and calorie meal
Disadvantages: Slightly sickly; quite sloppy; bland veg;

...Let me first clarify that I am by no standards a vegetarian; I love white meat such as chicken and Turkey, and the occassional sausage and bacon. I like spaghetti bolegnaise or shepherds pie ready meals but I actually can't stand minced meat; it's grisly and chewy - even the extra lean stuff. I find this a shame becasue I love to make homemade dinners. I was browsing the rice aisle during our shop at Asda when I spotted 'Asda Meat free savoury mince' in a packet. Now, I wouldn't write a review for the sake of it. I'm writing this review because you, like I did, may be slightly wary of a packeted meat free mince product that costs just 58p. Moreover, the front design is er, less than appealing to your average buyer. Basically, the packet is 120g with a green bordered edge. The front is predominately taken up by a large picture...

Review of Asda Meat Free Mince

Smoke - Free and Scented !

Advantages: Specifically for eliminating tobacco odours.
Disadvantages: Because it is specialised, you would need to buy another air freshener for daily use.

...Haze Anti-Tobacco Air Freshener Cedar and Orange 300ml £1.19 from Sainsbury's I purchased this product because my husband and I both smoke. However I would like my house to smell smoke - free, and not have the odour of tobacco hit you as soon as you walk in the door! As we have a four year old daughter we only smoke in one room; our bedroom. So as you can imagine sleeping and smoking in one room does not leave the most pleasant of odours! The air freshner is sold in a yellow coloured tin with an aerosal spray but no lid, which makes it convienient and easy to use. On the front of the tin, at the top in large, bold, green writing is the product brand name and logo. Underneath this in smaller brown writing is simply "ANTITOBACCO". Below which there is an illustration of an orange, and what I presume to be leaves...

Tobacco Heaven

Advantages: Great for Duty-free Goods
Disadvantages: A long coach trip and I don't speak the language

...out onto it. Follow the road until you reach the Belgium border. The road will then turn into the A18, follow it for a further 5 miles and turn of into Adinkerke. As simple as that. ***What is Adinkerke Like*** When you first arrive in the sleepy town of Adinkerke you will notice the lovely canals that run down the main road. But as soon as you turn of into the town you will be into tobacco heaven, Every single shop is covered in tobacco signs. Its like a smokers paradise. ***Duty-Free*** The duty-free is much cheaper in Belgium than it is in France. So if you are specifically going over to save a few quid then the journey is well worth it. the duty-free shops also sell cheap wine, beer and spirit. But be warned that if you exceed your limit then you will lose all your goods as well as your car. ***Conclusion*** Adinkerke...

ALL FREE THINGS!

Advantages: FREE FREE FREE
Disadvantages: NONE

...My Top Ten Freebies: 1) Free Makeover and Photo Shoot: If you look at my photo you are looking at my free picture! The Studio are currently giving away free makeovers and photo shoots, the whole thing takes about 5 hours. The offer is for you and a friend so I took my little sister with me the weekend of my birthday, we arrived at 12pm had our hair and makeup done to whatever style we wanted and then we had a photo shoot. We brought in a variety of clothes with us and had photos taken together and alone. Majority of the photos are just of individuals as the idea is it is a makeover promotion. After this had been done we waited one hour and then we could see our photos on the computer, there were so many to choose from nearly 200 in total. The offer only includes one free individual photo each so we had to be strong. You can of course...

Review of Top 10 Free Samples

* The old hands free CARK Kit . .

Advantages: Very good sound reproduction, always set up ready for use.
Disadvantages: Needs an external anrenna, plus fitting. Dated nowadays.

..., (as are the phones is it made for) but the principle is brilliant, you have a phone holder that gives genuine hands free operation, with sound that is virtually as good as a radio. Your own voice is picked up and transmitted with the same clarity. The holder itself is very good, if a little large by modern standards, it holds the phone safely and securely, whilst recharging the phone battery. There is no vibration, and the phone will not fly out of the holder at level crossings. I do realise that a lot of bluetooth headsets are replacing this type of kit nowadays, and they are very clear, but these kits do have their merits. The speaker is mounted wherever you want it, and so the sound comes equally to both ears, unlike the bluetooth that goes in one ear only. The microphone is equally good, being able to pick up sound of very good...

Review of Nokia CARK 91 Hands-free kit

would you risk in tobacco?

Advantages:
Disadvantages:

...ok, we all know tobacco is bad for us, right? well, yes and no - you see yes, sure, medically it is very bad and we have all been in conversation at some time or other about the bad effects of smoking - but our financial health may improve if we look at tobacco from a business perspective. BAT is a comany whose earnings are solid, very solid. growth may be a bt pedestrian, but they thow up cash at a rate of knots. So, it isn't sexy, its slow growing and it is being dragged into the mire by talk of us leagal actions on the tobacco industry. This means - the share price is being hammered - and although it has rallied strongly since march this year there is no doubt that the stock is still out of favour. however, if you seek dividends - then BAT is a good long term bet. The yield is very high, and well covered. investing in...
