I was not a smoker but I currently work in an electronic cigarette shop. I have had many customers that have come into the shop that have smoked for many years and once they walk out the door with an electronic cigarette, they never pick up a cigarette again. Other customers of mine have gone from smoking 1-2 packs a day down to just a few cigarettes a day. My customers talk about how much better they feel, how much money they are saving, and how they love not smelling like cigarette smoke. They love the healthier alternative to smoking.
