Ummm... General Yaris / Vitz Discussion?

How high do cigarette prices have to go so you people stop wasting money on them? Not that I care what you do with yourselves, but...

I remember hearing that the 'Smoking Man' in the x-files, who wasn't really a smoker, smoked cabage leaf cigarettes in the show.

I had to wait a year.
Quitting was the best thing I ever did. And I firmly believe
that no matter what method you use, you have to be ready, and committed.
Otherwise, you'll find an excuse.
Do it!

The life insurance I have said 1 year, but I'm not sure if all life insurances are the same.

started already 2 months ago just need the time frame for my life insurance to lower my premium..they said a year but i think i can do it half way..

Stopping is easy. Staying stopped for me isn't that easy. It's been 10 months and next month we are taking a cruise. It will be hard going to the casino without lighting up.

According to the company I work for, you would have to wait a year for your rate to go down. The premium you're paying right now should stay the same until renewal. Premiums go up as you get older, so on your renewal app. you wanna make sure you mark the box that says "Standard-risk non-smoker" to keep your cost down, but you have to absolutely be sure you're tapering-off the habit until you quit completely. And if you go cold turkey during that year, you can mark "preferred risk non-smoker" on the following renewal and still save a few bucks. Hope this helps:thumbsup:
