To avoid pharmacys being dicks, and paying inflated prices, go to a farmer store. Farmers inject their animals with medicines. So a TSC store will have a very good supply, or any feed and seed style store, Co-op ect.
Also vetrinary syringes come in larger sizes because of the larger animals. Where its hard to find a 10cc at the drug store and the 1cc for diabatics ones are useless, you can get 30ml (ml not cc) syringes at the TSC store.

Agreed. My wife is diabetic. She had some 1/2 cc and 1cc's laying around that i "re-purposed". They dont work so well with e-juice. ESPECIALLY anything more than a 20% mix with VG.

I don't know if they are in your area but I bought a syringe at Tractor Supply, I think they sell them for vet use.

Wow, lots of great suggestions! I just give the dropper tip a quick wipe w/ a napkin, grab it, and twist it off each bottle. (You can re-use empty dropper bottles or buy new ones at usplastics.com - look for boston round dropper bottles.) Then i pour slowly and carefully from the big bottle to the little one. If I get a little on my fingers, I rinse my hands in the sink. I think absorbing a deadly dose from a drop on your skin will take a loooong time. My skin is pretty liquid repellent - I am not made of absorbent paper towel material, and I don't notice any adverse affects from a few seconds of having a bit of e-liquid touching my skin
It's not like the liquid drips onto my skin and is instantly a completely absorbed - it just sits there. Maybe if you smeared e-liquid all over your face and neck and waited 10 minutes without washing it off, you might get into problem country?

I don't use syringes because I'm worried about contacting the e-juice, I use them to get a quick, accurate measure with minmal waste.
Add 3 ml of flavor you can count out 60 drops, loosing count 3 times and ending up with nasty e-juice with to much flavor. The syring is very accurate, very quick, and not waste from spills, and residue left on measuring devices.

you do realize that 1 ml is the same as 1 cc, correct?

Yes. What I meant to post in brackets should been ( 30ml not 1 cc). The point is you can get large syringes for those that have only seen the small ones used with humans. Mixing 30 ml/cc with a 1 ml/cc syringe would suck.
Sorry about the confusion.
