cheap smoking

so my hubby smokes. He is really good about not smoking in the house, not smoking in the vehicle with the kids but he doesn't want to quit smoking and I can't force him to so I told him he has to smoke cheaper cigarrettes. My parents and my brother make their own cigarrettes using a hand held device that you put the tobacco in, press it down and slide a tube with a filter on it on the nozzle and you slide back the filling part and it makes a cigarrette. I found today an automatic maker with a hand crank. Uses the same tubes but no packing the tobbacco etc. I made him some cigarrettes today and it is a handy little device. It will save money. Granted him quitting smoking would save even more but like I said I can't force him to.

1 lb bag of tobbacco is $16 (makes 4 cartons)
4 boxes of tubes is $6.50 (200 tubes per box so 4 boxes will make 4 cartons)

so total cost for 4 cartons (which will last 2 months or more) is $5.63 a carton
or 56.3 cents a pack, just under 3 cents a cigarrette.
Much more affordable then his newports, cheapest carton price is $38.15
or $3.82 a pack or 19.1 cents a cigarrette.
