Deposits
Same as Usual Care, plus participants will have to deposit a certain amount of their own money as an incentive to quit smoking.

The participant will be refunded all deposits if he quits smoking at 3 months, as verified by a urine cotinine test. The participant will forfeit all deposits if he continues to smoke at 3 months, as verified by a urine cotinine test.
