Stop Smoking

Launch Magazine

 

So you’ve tried everything - will power, chewing gum, nicotine patches, but nothing has worked.

If you’re sick of standing outside the bars, restaurants and offices of Barcelona, sucking on sticks of tar then Porktie is here to help.

Here’s our top 5 alternative ideas to help you quit smoking....

 

1. Become pregnant!

One for the ladies, but once you’re carrying a bun in your oven you’ll feel far too guilty to light up

 

2. Play the Lottery

Instead of wasting your money on cigarettes, buy a lottery ticket. What would you rather have – lung cancer or a private jet?

 

3. Take it underground

It may sound drastic, but try burying your remaining cigarettes. Then the next time you get the urge to smoke, it’ll be far too much hassle to dig them up again. Out of sight, out of mind!

 

4. Go Camping

Buy a tent, hit the road and pitch up in the Catalan outback for a week. With no shops nearby you won’t have any choice but to start stopping! (Just make sure you don’t put a sneaky packet in the bottom of your bag before you go)

 

5. Get on the floor

Bring out your inner tramp and pick up a few used cigarettes from the dirty Barcelona streets. Then place them in a glass of water leave it overnight and give them a right good sniff in the morning, you´ll be put off for life.

 

GOOD LUCK
