Product: Cigarrest

Company: Cigarrest.com

Price:  A free 30-day supply offered on the website.

Consumer: Smokers who wish to quit

The purpose of Cigarrest is to help smokers quit smoking.

Pros: Smoking cigarettes is an addiction. Smoking is an addiction that keeps smokers chained to their cravings and prevents them from living smoke free lives. The smoking addiction is not one that is very easy to kick. I’ve heard smokers say that it would be easier to give up eating than to give up smoking.

Cigarrest offers a free 30-day supply of their product. Included in the welcome package are 30-day supplies of chewable tablets, Cigarrest gum, and VitaGuard Smokers Vitamins; a Cigarrest program guide and exercise handbook; and a Cigarrest program audio CD.

The Cigarrest program addresses the entire cigarette addiction – not just to the nicotine in the cigarettes, but to the entire physical process of lighting and smoking a cigarette.

Cons: There aren’t any cons associated with Cigarrest. It has been on the market for a long time and the site claims to have helped millions of people quit smoking.

Guarantee: There is a guarantee that reads in part, “You may return your remaining product for a refund less shipping and handling charges upon request for a refund and return of the product within 30 days of being charged.”

Value for money: Good

Product: Tar Block Cigarette Filters

Company: Quit Smoking.com

Price: One box is $5.00 but the price drops dramatically with quantity purchases. (30 filters per box and each filter is good for 4-5 cigarettes)

Consumer: Smokers who wish to quit.

The purpose of the Tar Block Cigarette Filters is to block the tar inhalation by smokers when the smoke cigarettes.

Pros: Every cigarette smoker that I have ever known is constantly considering the possibility of quitting. Quitting smoking, however, is a big step. Almost all of those who attempt to quit fail more than a few times before they eventually succeed. The Tar Block Cigarette Filters are made to remove the tar and nicotine from cigarettes. The nicotine is the addictive drug and the tar is the harmful substance in cigarettes.

The Tar Block Cigarette Filters remove both the tar and the nicotine without removing the taste of the cigarette (taste is a part of the addiction along with behaviors such as holding a cigarette and the hand-to-mouth motion of smoking). So the Tar Block Cigarette Filters remove the harmful aspects of cigarette smoking until the cigarette smoker is ready to kick the whole habit. It isn’t a perfect solution to a smoking habit, but it is a step in the right direction.

Cons: The Tar Block Cigarette Filters are only basically a "first-step" stop-smoking aid. They are designed to eliminate the tar and nicotine that those who smoke cigarettes inhale.

Guarantee: All products purchased from QuitSmoking.com come with a 90-day money-back guarantee. If you are not completely satisfied with your purchase, simply return the item or items within 90 days for a full refund (less shipping/handling).

Value for money: The Tar Block Cigarette Filters are probably a good value for those who continue to smoke.
