I've lived next to a high school for 10 years and it's only since the pandemic ended I've seen kids smoking vapes whilst walking to school. The expensive cost of fags had people on rollies but that too became expensive, change in age for consumption and general loss of it being available really cracked down on underage smoking.
Now I see vapes littering the school and blazen adverts for them in the local co op. It's ducking weird.
