The latest gift idea for smokers

The latest gift idea for smokers

If someone close to you cannot kick the smoking habit, give them an e-cigarette for Christmas.

E-cigarettes offer the complete smoking experience without the toxic chemicals or smoke produced from burning tobacco. Users simply inhale and exhale harmless, odourless water vapour.

The end even lights up when the smoker draws on the cigarette - all batteries and lights!
The e-cigarettes are sold free of nicotine.

The special "starter kit" pictured contains a battery charger, a basic cigarette with battery and six screw-on cartridges, each with equivalent "puffs" of about ten cigarettes, depending on lung capacity and personal habit. Recommended retail price for the pack is $98.50. Savings against the cost of traditional smokes accrue when refills are ordered.
A refill pack of five cartridges is available for recommended retail starting at $22.50. Individual USB cigarettes with one cartridge are also available at rrp of $22.50.

E-cigarettes are due in over 300 foodmarkets, retail stores and pharmacies by the end of the month.
