10 wouldn't last me for a day... But almost.
When i buy smokes, i usually buy two packs of 30 smokes.
They last me about 5 days, so i smoke about 12 cigs a day.
I've managed to keep it at that for over 3 years.
I wouldn't rate that too bad, when compared to most of the smokers in the world.

Haven't smoked and I never will. I will never drink alchohal either. I am strongly against drugs. Smoking gave my war veteran grandfather lung cancer, and he's in heaven now.

Smoking is a habit that is hard to quit. My cousin has been smoking for quite a while now and he told me never start smoking cause it's hard to quit when you start. In any case it's a death stick. I don't see why some people find it cool to start using something that they know, and it has been proven, will kill them in time. My advice to you all is to try and stop smoking if you've started and seek help and if you plan on starting or want to try smoking DON'T.

* Styrene: Found in disposable cups. Possible human carcinogen
* Vinyl chloride: Used in garbage bags. Human carcinogen

What are the cosmetic effects of smoking?

* Bad breath
* Deep, premature wrinkles and discoloration, often called “SmokersFace,” even among young people in their twenties
* Stained teeth
* Doubles a person’s risk of losing teeth
* Dehydrated skin
* Yellow-brown discoloration of the fingernails, especially with unfiltered cigarettes and usually of the fingers that hold the cigarette

What are the health effects of smoking?

* Reduced fitness levels (due to increased stress on heart and lungs)
* Increased phlegm and coughing
* Higher chance of getting emphysema and asthma
* Increased risk of infections: common cold, influenza
