Isn’t the number four bad luck in China, whereas the number eight is good? I think that’s it.

Check out buyreddragon for a new way to quit smoking. Ive had my electronic cigarette for about a month and nothing has ever worked better for me. Before buying I did my research and found this company superior in all categories, most importantly quality and price. This coupon code worked for me with no minimum purchase; just enter 235-278-487 when youre checking out. The advantages of this product are endless. I hope this helps even just one person kick the addiction!

I know that the number 8 is supposed to bring prosperity in China.. 7 brings Death XD i think…
lol if anything …
lol if anything this would make non smokers to start so they could get rewarded
to be perfectly …
to be perfectly honest, had this been around when I was a child, I would have taken up the filthy habbit just for the reward, you are 100% right Jezza.
Money incentive to …
Money incentive to quit smoking is quite a silly idea, I think. Who’s to stop them from smoking again in the future?
Scientific studies …
Scientific studies have clearly shown that cash incentives are one of THE most effective ways to get people to do stuff. This includes helping drug addicts quit and stopping criminals re offending. So… basically… ‘why we giving money to criminals/smokers/whatever’ … it’s coz it works! no matter what your common sense says.
oh and cost of bribes is vastly less than cost of treating smokers for lung cancer on the NHS so taxpayers alliance can stfu too.
*sigh*
ps this is …
*sigh*
ps this is aimed at vid maker not all other idiots… not rly worth trying to convince this one :p
DON’T just take your info sources from newspapers and tv news stories…. it’s all bullshit anyway. Not saying it’s all lies… but so twisted by personal opinions and not actually caring about being accurate to facts. *hates comment character count* see next comment:

kids smoke dats how it works if der body s up then its der problem…same wit me…
“so clockwise16912 …
“so clockwise16912 is not a douche.”
haha thanks and im sorry but that made me laugh really hard.
its like. confusing languages makes you a douche, not being a person who cant correct someone without insulting them rudly over a youtube comment….. yea.
sorry, the whole convosation made me laugh. lol.

im sure you do a birmingham accent at one point
as an …
as an impressionable teenager myself i would have to say that this money reward system would fail epically as they would take the cash and just keep on smoking, well duh, i would!
wouldnt you just …
wouldnt you just swap the vouchers for money, and then spend the money on cigarettes.
plus, its not rewarding kids who dont smoke in the first place
Silly idea…the …
Silly idea…the money incentive is about as helpful and effective as the YouTube Community Help Forums.
Terrible idea. I’ve …
Terrible idea. I’ve never smoked- where’s my reward? Apart from healthy lungs, of course.
omgsh, that 13 year …
omgsh, that 13 year old dad look about 6 to me!!! gosh if you look at him next to his “girlfirend” its unbelievable. what has this society come to?
he should think that girls have diseases and not go any where near them. wow, im gobsmacked.
how could that girl sleep with a 13 year old guy?! he looks young enough to be hers!!! im just humendusly disturbed tbh.
I am so sick of the …
I am so sick of the stereotype of the knife toting, baby popping, chain smoking adolescent hudlum that permeates the media…why is it being allowed to dictate policy and priorities to our government? A tiny fraction of Britains’ health problems are down to underage smokers, many of these kids will see the error of their ways and give up anyway with only a little encouragement. So why offer a bribe that will get them to start smoking in the first place?? I agree that it is simply stupid.
i agree with the …
i agree with the dude with the weird accent
they shouldn’t be able to get hold of them.
bribing them is just ridiculus tbh. : /
free range eggs of course
It is a sad day …
It is a sad day when people will give up smoking for money but not because they are ruining their health and potentially ruining the lives of everyone they know.
is it supposed to …
is it supposed to be Scottish??
-I definitely agree that the way for the kids to get educated about smoking would be to have a conversation/meeting with someone who has been for sometime now.
YES!! I eat eggs every other day at least!! YUMM!!!
Show them the …
Show them the inside of lungs and arteries of smokers… and livers of drinkers while they are at it… cirrhosis and cancer are seriously ugly… skin cancer likewise looks so awful that it’s been fairly effective to show the real damage via scans to people who use tanning beds and the like.
What about the kids …
What about the kids who aren’t smoking? These kids hardly get recognition or rewarded for not doing things like smoking or drinking as minors yet it is those who are breaking the law that they want to reward for stopping? This is only going to get good kids to start smoking for a week so that they can get some pcoket money. It is showing kids that messing up and then realizing your mistake is more important than realizing that it is a mistake in the first place.
no, they’re givin …
no, they’re givin them more money to buy more cigarettes. raise the age, teache them
