Need good ideas!

So, I really need to quit my habit. Not drinking, beer is too good. But I do need to quit dipping/chewing. I've done it for about 4 years and its taking too big a hit on my cash (I'm in college so money isn't really something I have a lot of) and I just don't want to continue running the risk of cancer. I just had a physical and a dental appointment, still in great health. BP is great and cholesterol is outstanding. No signs of oral cancer. But why run the risk to ease me when I get tense?

So, the point being, what are some things I can do to help ease out of this? I've went from maybe a can a day to about 2 or 3 pinches a day, max (my days aren't short. I get up at 8 every day and I don't go to sleep till around midnight, 1am range). So, I'm easing off. But the headaches are getting worse and I'm trying to make this can my last. Want to get down to 1 or 2 a day starting tomorrow.

Should I start chewing gum to replace? Heard that works. Also heard that you end up spending just as much money. Start working out more to get my mind off it? Spend more of my day on the boards? I'm open to any reasonable ideas. Thanks in advance to all!

Most non-tobacco stuff just pisses me off.

Got a bucket of gum and 2 giant bags of sunflower seeds. 5 bucks. Decent value for all that. Pays to know people.

Yeah, I tried the whole sex as a replacement thing. Apparently its against the law to club a chick on the back of her head and drag her to my cave.

    • No, the casual fan gets sucked into THIS^^^ kind of thinking, and it's so woefully incorrect that it's almost sad. The first is what I've said numerous times, NOTHING about non guaranteed contracts save the billionaire owners a single penny, because they still have to spend their cap floor, and the only reason teams ever don't spend the full limit, is to then roll it over into the next season to be able to spend more that year. But in the end, owners pay the same amount of money no matter what. The reverse is also the same, that the players in totality make the same amount of money as well, because in your example of Clowney not getting that money this year, it will go to another player, as the cap needs to be spent. And you say how we just cut Clowney after we gave him the 2 year contract, but everyone including Clowney's agent and himself, knew when it was signed, that it was more likely to be a 1 year contract than a 2 with how it was structured.  The 2nd year was just to be able to spread out the cap hit and he was always most likely going to end up getting traded or cut. It's why agents and players don't care about the total money in a contract, it's always and only been about the guaranteed money, as the years and overall value are meaningless, always have been, always will be.
    • Agents will have their 1st round picks hold out until the pay structure of their contract is to their liking, not how much money they'll get or even how much is guaranteed, just the when/how they will get the money over the course of the contract. If they're willing to recommend those players hold our, do you really think they won't do it for 2nd rounders to guarantee them an extra 10% of their entire rookie contract?
