How much is smoking really costing you?
Smoking doesn’t just damage your health—it also puts a serious dent in your finances. Whether you're a regular or occasional smoker, the costs can quickly spiral without you even realising it.
Use our Smoking Cost Calculator to find out how much you spend on cigarettes or tobacco every day, week, month, and year. Seeing the numbers laid out can be a powerful motivator to cut down or quit altogether.
Cost of smoking per year
Volver al contenidoThe average smoker in the UK spends thousands of pounds each year on cigarettes or tobacco. Even a small daily habit adds up fast. For example:
Smoking 10 cigarettes a day at £13 per pack (20s) costs over £2,300 a year
Smoking 20 a day could set you back more than £4,500 annually
That’s money that could be going towards holidays, savings, home improvements, or family activities instead of feeding a habit that harms your health.
Our calculator works it all out for you. Simply enter how many cigarettes you smoke each day and how much you pay for a pack, or input your rolling tobacco costs. You'll see a full breakdown of your daily, weekly, monthly, and annual spending—and how much you could save by quitting.
