I began smoking tobacco products at the age of fourteen. Kind of young to begin but living the great state of North Carolina, it was not hard to find a friend willing to give me a cigarette. I was not a heavy smoker at first, but moving on to high school everyone smoked so i did too. Best i could do at the time was maybe a pack or two a week. Or on special occasions one pack a night. Once i turned eighteen i had at least a pack a day most three. It was not good for me. My body began to feel the strains of smoking and i began to feel weaker than my normal self. I had friends that had E-Cigs and that began to open my eyes to the alternative smoking. I bought my first ZMAX Mini with a vivi nova tank and i have not even thought of picking up another cigarette. It was probably one of my smarter investments and its been great. No odors to deal with, and i’m also saving a bunch more money than i ever could have if i continued my use of cigarettes. With times changing and more people growing away from the cancer riddled cigarettes, Electronic Cigarettes are a great, healthier alternative.
