I think maybe I've turned into a junkie

[Kissysmom]

This is ridiculous. 8-o

On the one hand, I'm proud to say that I haven't smoked a cigarette since November 26th - the day my first order from Steve at PureSmoker arrived.

On the other hand, I think I've spent about $300.00 ordering crap from my new "dealer" in one month.

Am I alone in spending like this? Steve? Are you laughing at me when you see yet another order from SBesselieu come across your computer? LOL

Sigh....

I love my e-smokes!

 

[robw]

I spent over $1000 my first month.

 

[Joshy_1289]

Yeah, I think its becoming a hobby now as well. I ordered another DSE901 yesterday. So i have two coming in. I have a Super Mini, Dont know the model number. I just order some stuff from steve. Hes F***ing awesome. And Im thinking about ordering the penstyle steve has now too lol

Im at about 150 dollars...

 

[gryffandor]

Up over $500 first month I think I'm slowing down now???

 

[slianfoxob]

a grand? wow rob. that's impressive

i've only spent a little over a hundred and i broke even about a week ago. i'm trying to budget this so that ecigs cost me equal or less than analogs.

although i think if i had a credit card or extra cash lying around i might be as in debt as some or more.

I'm a sicko, simply a sicko because now I hardly smoke OR vape (perhaps once or twice a week) yet I religiously buy new devices as they come out, have a fridge full of juice, spend a considerable period ogling my e cigs daily and religiously read this forum! haha God help us! 8-o

 

[Mufftrix]

You are not alone! Started off just a sample e-cig pre-charged that came with 4 sample carts less than £20 to £100 spent in the first week and another £30 today on essential?? supplies haha! Have cut down from 20+ a day cigs to 1-2 but found a equally expensive hobby/adiction but hopefully a lot less harmful!

Now where was that coffee flavour I wanted?

 

[dc2k08]

yeah, i went loco the first couple of months but now I've calmed down a lot and have stuck with the tried and tested. being frugal is a hobby of mine and now that the honeymoon is over, I only see myself spending ~$50 a month. That's about a 85% saving over cigarettes and I plan on getting that figure lower by bulk ordering. even if I do splurge I will always console myself that the money I am saving from not smoking cigarettes allows me to.

I just did the maths yesterday to sort of keep track. $372 in 37 days. If I can stop this, I will be set for half a year or more. If...

No burn baby: Exactly my feelings. I feel bad after vaping too much (no real OD, mostly just stomach acting up, sweat and tiredness) and I really regret I cannot continue... Waiting for my LorAnn supplies to arrive, because otherwise I only have 1 zero nic flavour - Absinthe - which is nice, but I would like to degust...

spent £380 in the first week. Since then my costs in 6 weeks have been approx £10. If I now work on 2mls of juice and cart a day, the cost of a 901 every 2 weeks that works well below £3 a day at normal UK prices. Compared to the £6 a day I used to spend on tobacco thats a good saving.
There are also little bonuses. Normaly when I am working indoors taking photographs I used to run outside of at every oppurtunity to grab a smoke. At the last 10 days of work I have done by working in that period I easily covered a couple of hundred of the that original investment. Effectively I was throwing away at least £20 a day running outside to grab smokes.

 

[spyderuk]

spent £380 in the first week.

I know the feeling. Rn4801, 2x 901 kits, atomizers, carts and juice and now the Screwdriver and even more jucie. I'm almost at the same amount in 1 week. 8-o

No more devices for me now! Just juice!

 

[SuperStack]

One sure-fire sign you've turned into an e-smoking junkie...

Power-dripping directly from the atomizer without the mouthpiece

I did that the first day.

 

[billyboy689]

hell yeh , im addicted
compared to some other addictions i have
this ones a winner

 

[ed_bollix]

I'm between $200 and $300. Funny, I also quit on 11/26 and have become addicted to the hardware and the vapor! I now have a PeeWee, 901 and I just received a Pen. You have to have one of each to know which one you like best, right? Now I keep looking at the pipe... Not to mention the variety of cases and stuff I buy and now lug around.

 

[Nadia Maximus]

I too, am a junkie, but am very pleased with my DSE901. I havent had the desire to go with another, probably due to my lack of money.

 

[Nadia Maximus]

I did that the first day.

I did that the first day too dripped without the mouth piece. Also, I almost always have my ecig in my hands

 

[bwood12043]

I am really scared to go back and add it all up, but I do know that it has been worth it to me no matter the cost...

I don't want to count the devices, liquids, chargers, etc., either, which should tell me that I am in denial about my addiction. I don't care, as the previous addiction was SO much worse. Hubby and I were ordering analog cigs at 15 cartons at a time... horrendous.... most of mine burned up in the ashtray on my desk, which of course, no longer is the case with e-cigs..

I have a four drawer chest in spare bedroom and only two drawers are full of ecig stuff, so I have room for more... lol !

So far, it's not as bad as my ebay habit (I'm a Red Hat Society Lady) My ebay buying forced me to consider starting an E-HAB 12 step program !

Friends, I know most of you know this, but even with all the supplies, devices, spares, etc etc., the hassle is no where near the hassle of inhalors and portable oxygen tanks and chemo, etc.

No truer statement. I've only spent...eh, around $80 on it so far. A Pee Wee starter kit, and four juices from CaSH. I've been keeping track of how much I'm smoking and keeping it generally in line with what I would normally be smoking if it was an analog - when I get a craving, I drip a cig's worth.

The funny thing is, with this WHOLE new world of smoking opened up to me, I find myself on supplier's pages, making a shopping cart of everything that I feel like I NEED...and I only need it because it's cool as ****!

I love this e-cig business,
I have been a convert for 60 days today......
I loooove vaping,
my cig is never out of my hand,
it is my pacifier.....

I used to spend 5000.00 each year on tobacco.

I have spent 3000.00 on this so far,
it is my new bliss.
I have enough stuff to keep me happily vapin' for
3 years plus.
so it is a great saving for me.

now I can just sit back and vape and look for stuff
to buy that just peaks my interest, or curiosity.

I will watch with great interest all the new mods,
and improvements to the 801 penstyle,
and 901 mini.

Di .......
