Just a thought supply's can get low

The Xmas run up proved a challenge as far as Cadbury's advent calendars go in Sunderland this year and this morning whilst in the supermarket this older lady gave my memory a jolt. She had left it late and her hubby would only have Cadbury 's, she had no chance, those baby's sold out weeks ago here.

Anyway , a number of years ago I done the usual new year resolution to give up the dreaded weed . Gets to the supermarket and the shelves were bare as far as NRT products were concerned. Tried a couple of chemists and similar, had limited supply's . That put an end to my quit, didn't even get past the starting post !!!! What can I say, I obviously wasn't ready to make the commitment...

The old lady and the Cadbury advent calendar, triggered that memory. I know I have a weird thought process ....weird is good right 😜.

Something to consider though , if you are in England (might be the same in other countries too) , and using NRT , you might want to get some extra supply's in before the big rush.Might not be a problem if you are on a quit program working on 4 week supply's but if you were like me and couldn't get on a program because you didn't give them prior notice before you quit (enough on that I have vented my spleen previously about organised programs) then you might to get an additional pack or something whilst the new year quit rush calms down .

Didn't realise I had become such a rambler .

Better to be prepared .....just in case.
