A mate 🙂 has recently fallen off the non-smoking wagon and is using nicotine lozenges to help give up again. When buying some at Boots, he was told by the lady behind the counter that if he joined their Stop Smoking Club (more details [url= http://www.boots.com/en/Pharmacy-Health/Health-assessments-services/Stop-Smoking-Service/ ]here[/url]), that he could get two weeks worth of lozenges (his favourite brand are currently £13.99 for a week's supply) for a prescription charge - £7.20. Bargaintastic.

Beware though, he was breathylysed (for carbon monoxide) today when picking up the next two weeks worth of sweeties. He was, however, at the level of a non-smoker :mrgreen:

Your shortened life expectancy will be no doubt good news for many 😉

Smoking's good for you. Keeps me healthy and young looking. Plus, right, I can ride a bike better than you as well.

..........and thanks to its growth inhibiting properties, in your case, exceptionally short.

Any smoker that doesn't want to quit is deluding themselves, I speak as a non-smoker who's been on and off for years and smoked all sorts. By not smoking you gain -

Energy
Health
A healthy throat
No stinking cough
No smell
Improved taste
Improved smell
Free Money
And a feeling of stupidity for being a slave to the dreaded weed for years and all the money you've wasted.
And believe it or not booze is better without the cigs

Back to the original post, this isn't any kind of special deal. It's all part of the NHS stop smoking service. There are thousands of points-of-access to this service all over the UK.

I help support the NHS through the tax I pay on my ciggies.

Just to inform, this hasn't been the case since 2003.

I'd guessed it wouldn't just be Boots doing it Sponging, just the handiest spot for most people, that was all.

2003 was when you started buying duty free ciggies from the bloke down the market who sells them out of his pockets
