Very much

No dura mucho

I was disappointed that these didn’t smoke at all. Buttttt, they really do look real as the light catches the tip and makes it look like a real burning cigarette. I got it as a joke to use at a Ladies Night with my (non-smoking) friends. It’s a nod to the very old viral video of the little boy who “likes to do hoodrat things” and “smoke with cigarettes” with his friends. 🤣🤣We got great laughs out of them through the night. They took theirs home and have even taken pics with them and continued to make jokes. If I didn’t work from home now, I would also take these to the office and use them as a jab to the smokers who have a “valid” reason to take excessive breaks throughout their workdays. 🙄. Lol. Now I’d be able to participate in the slacking. Hahaha!! 😂

The acquisition of these cigarettes was not driven by a seasonal event such as Halloween, but rather emerged as a pragmatic intervention for an elderly individual grappling with dementia and a prior smoking addiction. The visual appeal of these cigarettes proved to be so striking that on one occasion, while on a routine visit to the doctor's office, we overheard a new nurse express the immediate need to intervene and curtail the patient's smoking habit in the waiting room. (LOL). The elderly individual had been prone to falling asleep with lit cigarettes, leading to potential fire hazards as well—an issue that was effectively mitigated by the introduction of these discreet yet impactful alternatives. In addition, this habit cost this elderly person over $1000 a month and when they entered the nursing home they are only allowed to smoke 6 cigarettes a day, if they can pass their smoking test, which this elderly person was not. It was evident that the efficacy of these cigarettes went beyond their visual allure, as the cessation of actual smoking contributed to a considerable reduction in the associated risks. The subsequent purchase of a specialized electric movie prop cigarette by a nursing home further attested to the effectiveness of this innovative solution. Noteworthy features of this cinematic prop included illuminating lights and simulated smoke, achieved through the ingenious use of water droplets. Regrettably, public access to these items has been halted in the wake of the tragic incident on the set of the film "Rust." The cessation of public sales underscores the unforeseen consequences that have impacted the availability of such practical alternatives. Despite this setback, the positive impact witnessed in the specific case described here highlights the potential efficacy of these products, albeit within a constrained context. Purchased for $4.80 for a pack of 6. In conclusion, while external factors have led to a temporary halt in public sales for family member to purchase and use at home with their elderly patients, the transformative effect of these cigarettes on mitigating a critical safety concern for individuals with dementia remains a testament to their practical utility. The unique features of the cinematic prop, although currently inaccessible, further underscore the potential avenues for innovation in addressing complex challenges within care-giving environments. Not to mention that smoking increases the occurrence of stroke.
