SMOKING COST CALCULATOR
What could
you keep?
A pack here. A pack there. See what cigarettes cost you over time—and what you could put towards something else.
YOUR ESTIMATED CIGARETTE SPENDING
Over one year
US dollars (USD)
An estimate using constant prices and habits, 30 days per month and 365 days per year. Other costs, such as quit-smoking treatments, are excluded. Currency selection changes the unit; it does not convert prices.
THE NUMBERS, EXPLAINED
Small purchases.
A bigger picture.
How is smoking cost calculated?
Divide the price of a pack by the number of cigarettes it contains, then multiply by the number you smoke each day. Multiply that daily cost by 30 for a 30-day estimate, or by 365 for a yearly estimate.
Daily cost = pack price ÷ pack size × cigarettes per day
For example
At $10 for a pack of 20, smoking 20 cigarettes a day costs $10 a day, $300 over 30 days, or $3,650 over a year. Those are example inputs, not an average cigarette price.
How much could I save by quitting?
The results show the cigarette spending you could avoid if you stop buying cigarettes. Your actual savings depend on future prices, changes in how much you smoke, and any other costs. The estimate does not include investment returns.
