Practice makes perfect, and it can also win you some money if you enter in the contest that the Lung Association of Manitoba has been putting on.
For a 24 hour period, individuals must quit smoking to be entered in a contest that can win you up to $200 in cash prizes.
The reason for the 24 hour period non-smoking challenge is to help people practice before they quit for real. It is estimated that people take around 7 to 8 tries to finally quit.
75 per cent of Manitobans who smoke regularly say they would like to quit.
The next contest runs on August 24th and runs on the third or fourth Thursday of every month.
