Giving up my keys for 3 weeks this time

Hi all, 
Last Sept I quit for around 40+ days then started again.  That was my most successful quit ever.  I started it by having my wife hide my car keys for 1 wk which meant I could not access cigarettes.  Since then, I've tried to quit about 6 times.  So I am starting again and this time I'm having my wife take away my keys again, but for 3 weeks.  I realize one has to learn to be able to say no under all conditions, but this will get me through the initial 3 days of chemical dependency, and makes it easier to unlearn some of the initial daily routines.  It's not impossible for me to access cigarettes as I could ride my bike the couple of miles to the store, just makes it much, much less convenient.
