Steelroots, that's a great idea - the smell of an ashtray has always been bad and that helped me to quit. My hubby still smokes and since I got him outside smoking he'd throw the butts in an old flower pot full of water. Well let me tell you if you ever want to smell some stinky sludge that is about the worst thing I've ever smelled. Almost like an outhouse. Just dis-gus-ting. That keeps me quit now!
As for my last pack, I went from regular strength cigarettes down to ultra lights for a few weeks, then smoked the last pack down on New Year's Eve into the 1st. I'd fallen asleep after midnight but still had that last cigarette, so at 3 am I smoked it and that was that. It did taste like crap (I remember posting that here) and I really concentrated on how I didn't want to do that anymore as I smoked it. I used to smoke more whenever I had to throw half a cigarette out (for instance when I was in a rush to get into a class/work, etc.) because I wanted that full break and felt cheated if I didn't finish the smoke. I knew if I'd thrown out any of that last pack (carton actually) I would have felt like I left something unfinished. I finished it and have not looked back.

I bought my last pack on the way to work on the morning of my 52 birthday and smoked the last one on my way home that day. Put it out as I pulled up in front of our house. I never kept any in case I felt I might need one because I knew I would talk myself into smoking them when the craves got bad.

The last quit, I did save a few on a high shelf with a lighter. Well I saw that didn't work very well. This quit, I stretched the last pack over 3 days. My daughter & her husband stopped by. It was at noon, I lit the last one... looked at them and said Ok this is my last cigarette.. May 7th at noon.

My last pack of cigarettes...easy to remember. I smoked every single one in the pack...pretty much chain smoked them util they were gone. I felt a bit ill but I couldn't bring myself to flush them or throw them out. I took a shower to wash the smell away and I threw a patch on right after. On other quits, I saved 1 smoke, wrapped it up and put it in the freezer for peace of mind knowing that I had one just in case...that never worked. I don't need a "sniff" reminder...I'm like Brenda, I never liked the smell of cigarettes but I understand how that would be a great motivator for others.

Well mine isn't very inspirational but it is true. I had a pack of 10 which I put in a cupboard along with a lighter too. I wasn't sure how my quit would go, and I did not want to be in a situation where I was climbing the walls, and no cigarettes, Thankfully they remained untouched in the cupboard, and when we remodelled the kitchen I found them, I was amazed at how small the packet seemed and how tiny the cigarettes were, I figured that this may be because they were no longer a 'big' part of my life? and so mentally they were now insignificant. I dont know, but what I do know is they went straight in the trash.

My last pack of cigarettes? I made sure I smoked every LAST one of them. I stayed up late that night just for that purpose. That's the power of the addiction!
That's nearly 2 1/2 years ago and now I can safely say...I don't crave any more. I still look at this as a daily thing and I never become overconfident. I am grateful for every smoke free day I have.
Years ago, during one of my many quits, it was suggested that cigarettes butts be saved in a glass jar with a bit of water of in it. Just one sniff was enough to put you off. Guess I didn't save the jar long enough that time.
One day at a time this CAN be done!

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.
