quiting
Gunstar Hero:
Good on ya man.
Be strong, you can beat the habit, and you'll be better (and richer...$10 a pack???) for enduring the pain!
Harry Potter:
Haven't quit myself but am planning to stop in July.
For the time being, I have a control method. I only smoke socially. In the 1.5 years I've been smoking, I've had one by myself maybe 2 or 3 times and have gone for a week or two without having or wanting one. Going for longer requires more self control, of which I have zero. :P

That way, you'll ALWAYS have a pack handy. Whatever you used as a spitoon when you dipped can be used for the shells. DON'T eat the shells. The workout and motions you'll go through shelling them will help you.
Nothing will remove the cravings, but the oral fixations have so many solutions that if you can't find one to help you with THAT part of quitting, you aren't being fair to yourself. They've got flavored toothpicks all over the place, sunflower seeds, cripes, chew on a friggen Bic pen to keep your mouth busy.
Move over to cigars to ease out of it too. I get looked at like I'm crapping on someone's front lawn in broad daylight if I light one up in public ::) and they last so much longer....all of these things will reduce your smoking, which may make it easier to quit in your own gradual way.
The gum flat out sucks. Anyone who tells you that'll help....needs to be forced to chew that crap on a daily basis. The patch....I'm having a hard time keeping 'em lit ;)
