Save a bunch of money on cigarettes for your investing fund

[Leslie A.]

Of course, the best way to save money on cigarettes is to quit. I know, I know.

But it's not me, it's my husband. He smokes 3 packs a day and is not planning to quit (been married 26 years - he isn't going to budge). At an average of $5 a pack (he smokes the cheap ones), that's $450 a month.

I found a place online where you buy roll-your-own supplies and you can roll a whole carton for about $8, including shipping costs.

So, in the past couple of days I rolled 2 cartons for him, saving $80. It took less than an hour per carton to do.

I'm planning on putting the money we save into our investing fund.
