Then, there is the pocketbook. I don't smoke but husband does. He pays as much as $7,00 a pack, but, typically, closer to $5.00 a pack.

So for a month, two packs a day, he spends...... (Uh, add this, multiply that....) a whole bunch of money that I could be spending on senseless baubles to adorn myself with.

Between $300 and $420. Seems like enough for sensible baubles to me--ones with resale value.
