Oh, a big one is when he is talking on the phone after work on the back porch! I hate commercials during TV programs we are watching because I know it's inevitable that he takes a smoke break.

Give the e-cig a try. It might just be what you are looking for. I'm going to order the Intellicig. I'm glad Harrysmum has done all the leg work (Thanks, Harrysmum!) and suggested it to us. Good luck with your journey to quit smoking.
Aaaaah! You're welcome!

What personally worked for me was that I didn't actually change any habits....I still go to the coffee shop...talk (like crazy!) on the phone...go out for a lovely meal...but take and use the e-cig totally instead. Everything is absolutely, exactly the same - but with a different product.

Do you know, when I first 'switched', I used to position myself 'down-wind' from the real smokers, so that I could actually smell/sniff it?!!? I can promise you (and your husband!) that didn't last for very long! Yuck!

Again, if you do decide to go with the Intellicig, may I suggest that you get at least 2 of everything? For a smoker, there's nothing more frustrating than having to wait for the battery part of it to re-charge, it's best always to have one ready and waiting - so that there's never an excuse!! Also, if you have to order it from their website, it'll save you 2 lots of shipping. I also bought the soft carry-case - it all adds to the routine and habit that your husband is used to.

The contact part in Customer Services are absolutely excellent, for both questions and stockists (and returns/replacements if necessary!). They say they have outlets in the US, so I really do hope they can fulfill all your needs. Good luck (to you both!) Sally x
