Anyone Know of a Quit Smoking Calculator

[BeeS4335]

I promised myself that in order to pay for my new MacBook Air I would quit smoking. Does anyone out there know of a Quit Smoking Calculator that will run on OS X?

There be a widget.

Google : use it!

Thanks Jolly Jimmy. Downloaded OK but sadly doesn't work!! No way to input date of quitting. The thing's inert, bless it. Maybe it's me and/or my machine but, again, I'm grateful.

quitnet.com has a tracker to calculate how many cigarettes you would have smoked and how much money you have saved.

My gf quit smoking 2 years ago, and the results are eye-opening.

why would you want to quit?

smoking makes you look much cooler than walking around with a MB air.

Alternatively, you can start ordering online.

Where do you live? Some places, the tax is more than 200% the price of the actual cigarette pack. Ordering online you'll spend probably half--maybe even a quarter, if you live somewhere with high tax--of what you would pay otherwise. This site is pretty good.

I know, I'm going to hell. What can I say? I'm a little devil.

I buy from there at €12 for a carton of Marlboro you can keep smoking and get the MB Air

Alternatively, you can just download any countdown-widget(from here, for example). As far as I know, they count up as well.

I had a calculator that smoked once -- it quit right after, too.

It works fine for me. Look for the " i " symbol like in other widgets to flip it over. It's on the bottom right.

I could never comprehend how slowly killing yourself by breathing in deadly chemicals made you look cool. I think it makes you look like a douchebag, personally.

Let's hope that after nearly 5 years our buddy has quit and bought his new MB Air.

Packs per day * price per pack * 365 = savings per year.

There now you can skip hunting down a calculator.

D'oh. I'm usually better at spotting necroposting like that. Oh well.
