【2Firsts News Flash】According to a report from a convenience store on August 4th, new data released by the British online e-cigarette shop "Vape Superstore" shows that people in the UK who switch from traditional cigarettes to e-cigarettes can save money annually.

 

Data shows that smokers spend an average of £112 per week (approximately $149) when calculated based on smoking only 10 cigarettes a day. This amounts to a total of £2920 per year (approximately $3882).

 

On the other hand, the average monthly spending on e-cigarettes is 40 pounds (about $53), which can result in annual savings of 2440 pounds (about $3243), meaning a monthly savings of over 200 pounds (about $266).

 

The report's author, David Phillips, stated:

 

“People often pay more attention to the health aspects of switching from smoking to e-cigarettes, but there are also economic incentives at play. Smokers can save a significant amount of money each month simply by switching to e-cigarettes. If smokers are determined to say goodbye to tobacco and choose e-cigarettes, the savings and smoke-free lifestyle can become powerful motivators for them to quit smoking for good.”
