Quitting Rate Lower Among Smokers Who Can Buy cheap tobacco.

Smokers who had easy access to low-tax discount smokes sold on Indian reservations were less likely to quit -- and more likely to relapse when they did -- compared to smokers who paid higher prices, Medical Study News reported May 26. The same situation may be observed with cheap smokes online buyers.

Researchers from the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in Buffalo, N.Y., surveyed 1,548 adults in two New York counties and found that smokers who frequented nearby Indian reservations to buy low-tax discount tobacco or purchased cheap cigarettes in online smokes shops (for example your favorite cheap winstons) were half as likely to try to quit compared to smokers who bought full-price sigarettes. When they did try to quit, the low-tax cheap smokes online buyers were less likely to succeed.

The authors concluded that the low-price cigarettes were a dangerous incentive for smokers purchasing discount Camel cigarettes, cheap kent cigarettes, discount Marlboro cigarettes, Discount parliament cigarettes, discount Salem cigarettes or discount Winston cigarettes,etc in Indian reservations.
