Where I've been finding my supplies so far:
[B]Cart mods:[/B]
[U]Straws:[/U] [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B001B5CRGS?ie=UTF8&tag=caseente01-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B001B5CRGS"]Swisspers[/URL]. I got mine at Walmart in a color to match my e-cig. (link provided for visual reference only)
[U]Teabags:[/U] [URL="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000BU7U0C?ie=UTF8&tag=caseente01-20&linkCode=as2&camp=1789&creative=390957&creativeASIN=B000BU7U0C"]Teeli flip filters[/URL]. Purchased these at the gourmet cooking store nearby. A bit pricey, but the quality makes store-bought look pathetic. Plus, you don't have to fill up the trashcan with crappy tea.

I've tried Fluval and I hate it as much as the regular poly-fill that the blank carts come pre-filled with. At least it was relatively cheap, and can be kept around as a backup.
[B]DIY Juicing:[/B]
At the moment, I'm not sure where I would recommend to go buy the base juice.
[URL="http://www.e-smokeytreats.com/"]E-Smokey Treats[/URL] has incredibly fast service, and I've ordered twice and both times got exactly what I ordered in both equipment and juice. The flavor selection is a little limited, and "only" goes up to 36 mg strength. The quality is pretty good. Then again, I have rather limited experience with juice quality. :oops: So, for shipping time, and reliability, I can definitely recommend them.
I placed an order with [URL="https://www.myfreedomsmokes.com"]My Freedom Smokes, [/URL]and while I haven't gotten my order yet, I should be getting it early next week. This site sells 0-48 mg strength, in sizes ranging from tiny to 1000 ml. I'm wanting to stretch my juice $$$, so I'm glad to find a company with a reputation for quality products and fast delivery. I [I]can[/I] say that the customer service is so far A++++.
[U]Lorann candy flavors:[/U] I haven't bought these from the internet yet; instead, I've found most of them at a local gourmet cooking shop.
[U]Glycerine:[/U] Wilton's 59 ml bottle from the cake-making section of my local craft store.
[U]Syringes:[/U]
Larger than 1 ml: [URL="http://www.shop.cmlsupply.com/category.sc?categoryId=8"]CML Supply[/URL]. The smallest assortment pack, combined with a 10 pack of their 3 ml syringes, will give you almost everything you need, including a thin-enough gauge for refilling carts.
1 ml: [URL="http://www.dogcatetc.com/01101bd-1.html"]Dog Cat Etc.[/URL] CML doesn't sell anything smaller than 3 ml syringes, so I bought my 1 ml syringes here. Besides, I have pet rats, and all those extra syringes will come in handy in the future.
I've ordered from both places, and the turnaround time is good.
[U]Containers:[/U] I know many people use 5 ml dropper bottles. When I can't get hold of [URL="http://www.drugstore.com/qxp217188_333181_sespider/scope/breath_drops_original_mint.htm"]Scope Breath Drops[/URL] anymore, I will get hold of some of those. Yes, they're considerably more expensive than a bulk order of 5 ml dropper bottles, but the Breath Drops container is really cool and virtually impossible to drip all over the inside of your pocket once it's closed. Besides, so far I haven't need more than a few of them at a time. Using one of the syringes from the aforementioned assortment pack makes it easy to clean out the nasty-tasting breath drops and refill with yummy juice.
