Blech!!!! - Emptied the outside ashtray today

[Debian Dog]

Man I almost forgot how much analogs STANK. I have an outside pail that I used to throw butts in when I was smoking outside. I decided it was a good day for it to go and I dumped the pail in the trash. Good grief over the last week of not smoking the smell almost knocked me out as the ashes spun around in the wind.

Had to wash and vape a bit to get the smell out of my head. Nothing worse that old cigarette smell.

Congrats....your smell is returning.....lol

I was in the city this past weekend. I ended up standing in line behind a lady who had been smoking. OMG!! The stench from her clothing almost killed me. I quickly grabbed my cart and got in another line up. I just could not take it. I'm turning into one of those born again non smokers.

I work with a couple of smokers, and even before I see them coming back from break, I can catch that aroma of stale smoke. And to think I used to smell like that myself. It is a wonder my wife stayed with me.

I hear you there.I did the same thing when the snow melted after the winter.It got buried from not being used. Its amazing the difference in smell after you have been away from butts for a while.Then you think to yourself,man I used to smell like that? The worst is when a smoker talks in your face after a smoke.Talk about Blech. That alone is enough to make me not want to go back but the joy of vaping is a pretty sweet cherry on top!

LOL. That's funny!

I don't feel like such a freak after washing my car ashtray 5 times to try get rid of the smell

Same here! During my fourth day vaping at my work bench, I smelled sumpin' horrible. It was my ash tray. So I dumped it and put it in a storage closet at the other end of the garage. Well yesterday, 27th day tobacco free, I had to soak and clean it. My sense of smell has truly improved.

Why did I keep that ash tray, you may ask? It's an aluminum USGI memento that I've carried around the world twice. May have it mounted with a global map... ;-)

As to my bride of 42 years this year, think I'll keep her!!!

Congrats on the 42 years to both of you!

Yep I can now smell the customers who smoke, quite embarrassed to realise I used to stink like that...and no amount of perfume or breath mints can cover it up!

Yes I suppose you are right

The wife put the "No smoking" sign in the house early so I never smoked inside and tried not to smoke in my truck. I can't imagine years of smoking in the house. I bet you had to wash and paint!

Man I almost forgot how much analogs STANK. I have an outside pail that I used to throw butts in when I was smoking outside. I decided it was a good day for it to go and I dumped the pail in the trash. Good grief over the last week of not smoking the smell almost knocked me out as the ashes spun around in the wind.

I bought a pack of analogs this week because my good battery died. I have another battery, but it's fussy and only works with very few cartridges and of course all of those cartridges were dead. I hated the way I smelled and the nasty taste in my mouth afterwards. I was so happy today when I received my new battery. I have another on the way and I think I'll order one more just to be safe.

Sam's Club sells a product called OdoBan. It can be purchased in a gallon jug for around $9. You mix one ounce in quart spray bottle and use just like the other fabric/odor control sprays. Some Wallymarts sell it in the spray bottle ready to use. OdoBan is great for destroying the odor completely. It is also used in hospital settings because it kills germs and bacteria. I have never found another product that will remove smells so well. It is safe for pets and children. It totally removed all smell of smoke from my vehicles. You can even put it in your wash and it will remove the smoke smell. If it is a smell you want gone, it will work.
Disclaimer: I do not work for any store that sells, or manufacturers OdoBan. I have not been paid to endorse OdoBan

We have quite a few dogs in out "kennel" and swear my Odorban!

Actually when I had the inside painted about 5 years ago, I demanded washable paint ex-hubby(now) gave in lol.....so washing was all I needed to do... of course, this was only after painting complete house every 5 years or so,,,,I had smoked for over 40 years, been in this house for around 15ish years or so.... and sorry to say, I ain't getting any younger..... washing the walls was almost like painting....except it smelled so much better than paint.....lol

I dumped the outside .... can early on after quitting, so it didn't bother me much at the time. A week or so later I put something else into the same trash can and when I opened the lid of the can, the smell that wafted up was AWFUL! Now, I can smell smokers, too. It's not a pleasant smell by any means, but it also doesn't bother me much and I don't mind if people smoke around me. I guess I'm not going to be one of the 'reformed smokers' that can't tolerate the smell of analogs.

On the plus side, I have an herb garden that I used to have to pick a leaf and crush it in my fingers to smell the herb, and now all I have to do is walk through the garden and I can smell the herbs as I brush past them. THAT is cool!
