I mostly smoked Camels and Camel Lights, toward the end I was smoking Pyramid full flavor (an off brand) because I had no desire to pay $5-$6 a pack -- just under $4 was the cheapest I could do. I quit VERY quickly after getting my KR8, and "forced" myself to smoke a cig a day for a week or so, to avoid or alleviate any minor issues with MAOI or alkaloid withdrawal. I started to hate cigs more and more...

Good call on this thread! I started on marb lights when I was 13 and they will always taste the most like what a cigarette should taste like to me. For the past few years though, I've been buying whatever premium brand is buy one get one or at the very least $1.00 off. Light, regular, medium, wide, whatever. Picked up the vape 2/1, cheated on 2/5 and haven't had an analog since.

Newport Light 100's - period.

Never could smoke any other brand. When I was forced to smoke something else, I'd buy Marlboro Menthol Light 100's - and often didn't even finish the pack. As soon as I could buy my regular brand - I'd give the others away or let them go stale and toss them.

I vape the way I smoked - I'm a one vape girl - I try other "flavors" - but it's that "one thing" that satisfies me, and I just stick with it. How boring. :lol:

Before 1975 I smoked Marlboro 100s. I was only smoking, perhaps, a half pack a day then.

Around 1975 I discovered and switched to More Reds 120s, and for the next 35 years smoked from 1 to 2 packs of them a day. Through that period, Marlboro 100s remained my backup choice. And, for a while in the early 1980s I'd buy some Nat Shermans when I wanted something different. The Shermans cost about double what the Mores were costing ... I think I paid $2.50 a pack for Shermans at the time.

I still have 4 or 5 cartons of Mores on hand, going stale and neglected.

First cig was a Parliment stolen from my mother in 1965. Started buying Larks (long gone, I think) and then to Winstons. After that was Kools and then Merit Menthol. Switched away from menthol after that and was mainly smoking Camels. For the last 10 years or so it's been American Spirits. I haven't quite quit yet, but I'm getting there. A 45 yr habit is very hard to break.
