    Can you get the stop smoking chewing gum free from NHS stop smoking.
    Might be worth asking at your local chemist to see if you can

    Dilema- I have a bracelet that an ex boyfriend gave me, white gold, pink and white diamonds. This was the 1st and only present he gave me. Although we are no longer together and havent been for 2 years we still talk. I do not wear this bracelet and its just stuck in its box.

    I keep thinking...

    Do I sell it and put the money towards paying my debts?

    Awww but he gave me this for christmas, the only thing he ever bought me in 2 years!

    im so confused

    Re: bracelet. If someone could buy it off you, and get pleasure from wearing it, then sell it. (I always take photos first if necessary to keep as a momento).

    sell sell sell!

    Why would you want to be reminded of someone who only bought you 1 present in 2 years??? And what good is it doing sitting in a box?

    Hi :wave:

    Good luck on your journey and I hope quitting smoking goes well!

    I'll second the others - sell the bracelet. :)
