Quit Smoking Calculator

Calculate how much you spend on cigarettes daily, yearly, and over your smoking history, plus how much you would save by quitting today.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is vaping a cheaper alternative?

Initial setup is similar to monthly cigarette spending, but ongoing pod or e-liquid costs run 40-60 percent less than a pack-a-day habit. Long-term health effects are still being studied; the FDA has not approved vaping as a quit-smoking aid.

How much do most people save the first year?

A pack a day saves $2,000-3,500 depending on local taxes. New York and California exceed $5,000 yearly. Heavier smokers (2+ packs a day) often save more than $7,000 in the first year alone.

What about cigars or pipe tobacco?

This calculator targets cigarettes. For cigars, multiply price per cigar by daily count. Pipe tobacco averages about $1.50 per bowl. Adjust the cigarettes-per-day field to reflect daily usage equivalents.
