Started out on B&H from a friend, used to nick my granny Senior Service, Settled on Gaulois, Gitanes or Disque Blue for a while, loveley fags, but ripped my lungs out. Marlboro Reds for a bit, then Marlboro Lights, settled on Drum rollies for years as I enjoyed the ritual and extra skive time.
Now use 'Red tobacco' from TECC , searching for a decent Drum flavour, also something that tastes like french fags.
Started out with Merit when they were about 75 cents a pack. Me and my smoker buddies always used to say we were gonna quit when they got to $1.00 a pack. Yeah, right. Used to buy 'em at the corner "drugstore" after fighting over whose turn it was to go buy smokes. The elderly lady behind the counter would give us the stink eye and ask, "Are you 18?". "Oh, yes ma'am", we'd say, and walk out snickering.
Eventually moved on to Marlboro Reds and then, after many years, went to Marlboro Ultra Lights. Then when prices went through the roof the cost factor became top priority. In the end it was Pall Mall Lights for 5 bucks a pack.
I started on Marlboro Reds for $1.65/pack and finished on Grand Prix Lights for $5.25/pack. I am still working on finding that perfect juice but I believe Copper Creek House Blend is a contender. I've only been vaping about 2 months though.
I started smoking Export A, Canadian of course, then in the end Peter Jackson lights. First Vape was cherry cigar which I still like, but my new ADV is 75%-Hooligan Vapes Cedar House Tobacco mixed with 25%-Halo Captain Jack..... This just does it for me WOW!
Started out sneak-smoking my mom's generic brand from the Commissary (way cheaper by the carton on the fort than at the corner store) then around age 16/17 started buying Marlboro Lights (so gross!!! but everyone was using them) and around age 18/19 started trying menthols. Went from Salem & Kool and Benson and Hedges & Virginia Slims to Newports. Stuck with Newport 100 full flavors until today. I'll be 40 my next birthday.
Favorite vape is coffee, closely followed by RY4, then light fruits. Mmmmmm. . .
Started on pinching Lambert and Butlers from my mothers handbag Also did the co-op buy from a local shop with friends, getting an older brother to buy them for us. From then I switched to Golden Virginia rollies and stayed with them for over 20years.
It was interesting on holiday in Jamaica last year, when I was still a smoker, that the Americans and Canadians were still surprised to see someone using rolling tobacco.
I used Marlboros but i had a long stint of hand rolling bali shag gold which i would have preferred but hand rolling was a timesink. I found wordupecig red to have a flavor very similar to that bali shag gold i used to love so much, and it really nailed it for me. Not sure how i progressed but now i pretty consistently vape wordup strawberry cheesecake diluted down with their kosher strawberry as of about 2 months ago. I still use the red from time to time, and i tend to recommend it to new users as it has a nice sweet tobacco flavor and consistent TH that i needed to badly
Marlboro red, started at 65 cents and once they started going higher in price I said once the reach $1.00 a pack i'm quitting
never happened. 38 years later and about $5. a pack I quit.
My first brand of "cigarettes" were these when I was 8. I wanted to be just like my Dad. For those too young to remember them, yes they actually sold these to kids and the bubble gum had a powder on it. You could blow through the fake cigarette and simulate smoke.
I was heavy on marlboro menthols and then i went light menthols. Tried pall mall menthols after for a while and then went back to normal marlboro menthols.
I think my first partial pack were Tahoe full flavors or lights when they were like $1 a pack, maybe a little less. I almost immediately started smoking Marlboro lights after that, when I could afford them (via giving money to someone over 18, since I was 16). I smoked Camel menthols for the last few years. They were 2/$7.01 the last time I bought them, or about $4.50 for one pack.
The first flavor I vaped and really enjoyed was Classic Menthol from V2 Cigs. I think the first juice that really made me say "wow" was either Truth Serum or Antidote from Roar.
Camels, Winstons, Parliaments, Lucky Strikes, Camel Non Filters, American Spirits, New Ports, Pall Malls.. Camel Menthol's, pretty much whatever I felt like smoking that day. Never Marlboro's though, I've always hated them for some reason. Camel was my default brand though.
I started with a pack of Marlboro Reds and a pack of Pall Malls (back when they were filterless) a day...yes a pack of each. Half pack smoked by 9.00 am. These were $1.70 / pack.
Moved into rolling my own (American Spirit Medium Shag) when packs got expensive. Rolled my own for about 12 yrs.
First flavor that hooked me on vapes: Afternoon Delight (from MBV) cut with some Peach. Now, I've been vaping cola just about everyday.
Can I get 2 packs of Marlboro Menthol Lights in a Box Please. Kinda miss saying that LOL (not for the ciggs just got so used to saying it for 15 years and talking to the cashiers, heck I dont even go to gas stations anymore unless I need some gas ha)
