A recent poll commissioned by UKVIA suggests that smokers who make the switch to vaping save on average £346 a year, with many vapers claiming the financial burden of smoking was one of the main factors that made them switch to vaping.
Why Make The Switch?
The poll included 1790 British adults who are either full time vapers or in the process of making the switch on to an e-cigarette, and highlighted some of the driving forces convincing people to kick the habit.
On average, those who have completely given up smoking are saving £346 a year, as coils and e-liquids last substantially longer than a packet of cigarettes. It was found that many of the participants chose to put the money they are no longer spending on cigarettes into a savings account, or putting it towards a family holiday.
Another obvious reason many choose to give up smoking is the health implications associated with long term cigarette smoking. Nearly a third of the participants decided to give up after noticing a deterioration in their health due to smoking, and another 17% had a close friend or family member fall ill from smoking related diseases.
There are also the everyday differences that giving up smoking can make, such as having nicer teeth, better breath and generally not smelling of smoke.
