Get a Free IPod Just for Quitting Smoking with Nicorette

Recently, I've been trying to quit smoking. Quitting cold turkey is definitely not for me, so I've been using a combination of the nicotine inhaler and nicotine gum to help me manage my cigarette cravings. Most drugstores and big-box stores like Target and Wal-Mart make their own store-brand nicotine gum which contains the same amout of nicotine as Nicorette, the name-brand nicotine gum made by GlaxoSmithKline. In my experience, although they may contain the same active ingredient, Nicorette tastes far better than store-brand nicotine gum and is available in a lot more flavors--Cinnamon Surge Nicorette is my favorite, as it tastes just like Big Red chewing gum.

Nicorette is a lot more expensive than store-brand nicotine gum, sometimes twice as much, and that is a lot to pay just for some extra flavoring. GlaxoSmithKline recently announced the Nicorette Quit Rewards program, however, and with this program you can earn free coupons for Nicorette, Visa Gift Cards, and even a free iPod Shuffle just for choosing Nicorette over the store-brand nicotine gum.

Here's how the program works: starting immediately, specially marked boxes of Nicorette in stores nationwide will contain a code number which can be entered at the nicorette.comwebsite. Each piece of Nicorette gum in the box you purchased counts as 1 point in the Nicorette Quit Rewards program. Your goal is to use 750 pieces of Nicorette over the course of 12-weeks to help you become smoke-free. As you accumulate points, you will receive pre-determined "rewards" in the mail.

At 100 points, which you will receive for purchasing just one average-sized box of Nicorette, you will be mailed a $5.00 coupon towards your next purchase. These Nicorette coupons will increase in value as you progress in the Quit Rewards program. At 350 points, in addition to a Nicorette coupon, you will receive a $25 Visa Gift Card, which is basically like free money you can spend anywhere Visa is accepted.

As the program continues, you can earn another $25 Visa Gift Card, more coupons, and if you complete the program by purchasing 750 pieces of Nicorette, you will be rewarded with your choice of a $50 Visa Gift Card or your very own iPod Shuffle (OR a DVD player...it's your choice)! The total value of all the rewards in the program is $170, which is something you just won't get with store-brand nicotine gum. The Nicorette Quit Rewards program makes quitting smoking fun, gives you something to work toward, and won't cost you a single cent beyond the cost of the gum itself. The combination of better taste and the Quit Rewards program makes Nicorette the clear choice over store-brand nicotine gum. To enroll in the Quit Rewards program, pick up a box of specially-marked Nicorette at a store near you, register at nicorette.com, and get ready to quit smoking for good!
