I didn't quit cigarettes and alcohol at the same time but for me, quitting smoking was harder. I don't miss a bit.
And agree with Rev, the cost alone is enough motivation these days, but for me, I quit for health reasons (on both counts) and am glad I did.
Actually, I drank like a damn fish until several months ago. So, really just recently gave alcohol the heave ho. Not sure I could have stopped both addive vices at the same time. I mentioned on these boards earlier, I just got laid off of my software job so I am in between jobs, and for me, that's the biggest risk factor for me, to much free time on my hands. Free time and me is a disaster waiting to happen :-( I know this will change over time, but for now, trying to find a job asap!!
