THE COST OF SMOKING

1 pack of Cigarettes/day = 7305 cigarettes a year

Average pack of cigarettes is $5 X 365 packs of cigarettes a year= $1,825 per year spent on cigarettes

$1,825 per year X 10 years = $18,250  spent on cigarettes over 10 years

According to the American Cancer Society, smoking is the most PREVENTABLE cause of death in our society

PMHC is here to help!

  • 70% of smokers say they want to quit
  • 40% try to quit each year
  • 4% to 7% succeed without help

Many people struggle quitting because it is not just a physical dependence but also a psychological dependence. If you need help, register for this class.
