Cost savings

Imagine what you could do with the money you save from quitting.

How much money is smoking or vaping costing you?

Smoking and vaping don’t just harm your health - they drain your wallet and your freedom. Quitting them both can change your life.

Smoking and vaping are expensive. Use the free Cost Calculator to see how much you spend.

If you smoke 12 cigarettes a day, quitting could save you around $120 a week - over $6,000 a year. Vaping costs add up too. Devices, liquids and accessories can cost a lot of money.

Imagine what you could do with that extra cash: a holiday, new furniture, streaming subscriptions, gym membership, or even a new car.

Smoking and vaping also take away your freedom. Nicotine addiction makes you feel trapped - always planning your next cigarette or vape. Quitting means no more late-night runs, no more searching for places to smoke or vape, and no more cravings controlling you.
