Smokers who want to quit could save thousands of euro a year.
That's according to a new survey out this morning from Healthy Ireland.
The HSE is encouraging people to make 2023 the year they take back control.
A new campaign is being launched this morning to help people kick the habit.
The HSE's Tobacco Free Ireland Programme leader Dr. Paul Kavanagh says motivation is the key.
"For somebody this New Year was thinking of stopping smoking, we reccomend focussing on motivation.
"Motivation might be concern about your health, concern from a family member, or concern about money.
"We know that someone who smokes 20 cigarettes a day that costs them €5,000 per year."
