Give your cigarette money away

I have just given what would have been two days worth of cigarette to help the Japanese during this horrible time. Hopefully one or two of you may think it's a good idea and join me.

I think donating money saved from quitting to charity is a fantastic idea Fencer, and whilst I was shocked and upset to see the devastation the earthquake and resultant tsunami have caused in Japan, I would hate it if we forgot all the other areas of the world who unfortunately don't have access to the resources and infrastructure that Japan does, ie Libya, Haiti and so many others.

Of course - I hope that no one thinks I am trying to send them one way or the other.

I'm sure that's not the case, but it's so easy for us to get caught up in the latest thing that needs our help. I think your idea is wonderful and I wish I'd thought of it sooner :). Sometimes its the simplest things that make the most sense; you may have started something!

This is a top notch idea... would help every time you have a craving to know that at least you're helping the world by denying yourself a cig.
