hey guys i only have about 5 days worth of patches and due to working cannot make smoking sennsations and the doctor wont give me a line for patches. obviously not wanting to pay the extrodanary prices as i already pay every 3 months for all my medication.
Is there any other way of getting them?

I'm sorry but nothing to offer re obtaining patches as I don't think shop lifting is condoned on this site :eek:
A few members have posted up that the longer they were on patches the more they thought to cut down on there usage. This actually meant that they were cutting (with scissors) the patches to smaller sizes. Possibly you could try that and eke out your supply for a longer period.
You may say that this wouldn't last you too long, but there again others have stated that they came off the patches quicker than the subscribed period.
The decisions are for you to take as nobody knows better than yourself.
Read, read, read through the posts and educate yourself regarding quitting and that could be the cheap answer that you are looking for.
Not sure what level your on but I'm using 15mg & Boots own make are £6.25 for a week. Would have cost me this a day to smoke, so not bad! If wrong mg might be worth searching web for best price, supermarkets etc do deals.
I have cut my last patch in half as I cannot get any until Saturday. So far I don't feel any different and don't think I will as I have been off the cigs now for 11 days now (gives herself a pat on the back).
Anyway, don't panic I am sure you will be okay especially as you have the determination to quit.
