Hasta La Creative!

Quitting to Smoke is something hard these days but you can be assured that proper authorities and groups will exhaust all means to help people kick the habit. The recent passage of a law by Congress to expand the State Children’s Health Insurance Program (SCHIP) means Minnesotans and smokers nationwide will see the price of cigarettes increase soon.

Beginning March 31, the price of a pack of cigarettes will go up about 62 cents, raising the average cost in Minnesota to nearly $5. The tax increase will be used to provide children from low-income families with health care. President Barack Obama signed the bill into law on February 4, 2009.

With the cost of cigarettes increasing, Minnesotans can rely on ClearWay Minnesota’s QUITPLAN Services for free counseling, support and access to nicotine patches, lozenges and gum to help them quit smoking. Minnesotans can find out about all the free help to quit smoking through QUITPLAN Services by visiting quitplan.com
