I have read of others saving butts, sometimes in a jar with a lid and some water... The other day I got a crave. I knew I had emptied the car ashtray in a bag.. I went and looked at it, just taking the lid off and opening the bag, it was disgusting.
My car still has a little bit of underlyig smell... Time for more spray... I still have 2 jackets to get in the laundry.. they don't smell so great. Looking at the butts reminds us of the money being thrown out too....
Keep up the great quit.

This is probably crazy for most of you, but I decided to post this anyway, because it may help some of the other new- comers. I intentionally saved the butts of the last pack I smoked leading up to my quit day. When I have my craves or think too much about smoking, I go outside and take the lid off the container and sniff- The 1st week or two it didn't smell too bad but tomorrow is day 40 and it's beginning to smell really bad. It reminds me how my hair and clothes may have smelled to others.
