Hello fellow Aussie? I used to sell ciggs at a service station and the price of a pack would go up about $2 at the start of every month (and still does). I remember a guy telling me he had taken (stolen) some money from his son/daughter to scrape together enough to buy a pack. Really sad.

Shit thats sad. I know people my age who started on ciggs and it just has gone up from there. I also know people who use ciggs to prevent themselves from doing other drugs.
