Quitting smoking enriches your life in several ways. One of the major benefits of quitting is improving your health; another great benefit is saving money.
On average, a pack of cigarettes in New York costs $13. While this may not seem like a lot, it does add up and can become expensive. Quitting can help you to save and apply your money towards other items or goals. Here is an example of how much you can potentially save over time and a few ideas of how you could spend the extra money.
