I have smoked since the age of 13 years old..... Same way as alot of people start is at school.... It's the thing to do to look like you belong.
If i could turn back the clock now and not of started believe me I would.
I've always been surrounded by smokers, my parents, friends and people who I socialise with .
When I started smoking 10 years ago it wasn't just the cost that was different but the avaliability, 20 cigarettes were around £3.50, yes alot cheaper than today, I started smoking benson and hedges gold, because this is what my parents had always smoked. But once I had left school and started going out to clubs more where at the time you could smoke alot of my friends were smoking richmond superkings, so I soon changed.
Not just because friends were smoking them but because they were alot cheaper than other brands, they didn't play on my chest so much and because they were superkings I found myself not smoking so much , which mean't I wasn't buying cigarettes as often.
i have tried other brands, mayfair, lambert and butler, But as digusting as smoking is I still preferred Richmond. Not only that John player has been around for many years, you see alot of fake products, but I have never come across fake John player, If you are a smoker I would suggest trying them, If your not please don't start, what your parents say is true.
Once you start it's hard to stop !
