Is vaping cheaper than smoking?

[triplxratd]

For those competely switched over to vaping from smoking. I used to spend around $200 and up a month for cigarettes. I totally quit this month and started vaping, and Ive stocked up with around $700 in supplies and juices. I will need to see how long that gets me before Ill know if its cheaper for me or not.

After you get all the batteries you need for your unit of choice......I would say yes. I spend so much less on juice than I did on cigarettes.

In the beginning it is more expensive, for a short period of time.

That period of time becomes longer as you try to find the right juice and nicotine strength.
That period of time becomes longer if you start messing with different models.
That period of time becomes longer if you start looking at mods.

That period of time becomes MUCH longer if you start stocking up.

If you are satisfied with something that works, once you find it, then it is way cheaper than smoking.
Because ongoing costs to keep you rolling are MUCH cheaper than smoking.

I said it's a little cheaper because I just recently started and have probably already spent what I would in a month on analogs. Then again, I'm trying out all kinds of juices so I'm spending more now than I probably will after I settle all the way into it.

After 6 months of vaping we're staying $500-$600 pretty consistently under what we would have spent on analogs. It's been that way for a while now.
Like everyone says, the first month or two will make you doubt you're ever going to save money vaping. It balances out. At least it's worked that way for us.

It's way cheaper. I've already shown my savings on my blog, so I'm not gonna bore you all with it here. It's in the neighborhood of $300/month savings though. I like USAmix and my wife likes Vanilla, so we don't order juice a lot.

Even with buying a battery mod about every two months it's still cheaper. At $50 to $60 a carton which last one week at best, look at what you can get in PV's and supplies with that money and how long they will last. Granted I have spent a little over $2k in the last 6 months, but I have more than enough supplies to go for something like 2 years for both me and the wife. Cigarettes costing me over $350 a month, a modest figure, would be $8,400 in two years less the 2k I spent makes the savings at over $6,000 in two years! My cost for vaping wouldn't be as high as it is if I didn't think I have to collect battery mods like I do.

Well the $700 in my first month includes around 400ml of juice, a dozen batteries, and a pile of attys etc. Im pretty sure Im good for a while. Really though, I dont care how much it costs, I would pay whatever I had to...
I plan on stocking up much much more soon soon soon...

After the initial exspense.

Absolutely cheaper. In the last 8 months I would have spent well over $1000 on cigarettes. I haven't spent nearly that much on vaping and that includes about a 6 month reserve of juice and atomizers and a whole bunch of spare batteries.
