Speaking of which...Oh all knowing, all seeing Queen of VIP, are there any new discount codes for VIP that we should be aware of that you haven't shared already? I know some have expired. Oh..and just a side note.. I probably should have read the rest of your last post before trying to vape Nyquil...my recommendation is not to try this,..but it DID stop the sniffling, sneezing, coughing, stuffy head, fever so I could rest..

Lol, guess that makes me the Cheap B1tch

The codes that are down in the Social Group portion of the VIP (Bulletin Board) are the only ones I've received lately.

No new sales are going (yet). I'll be sure to ask the Suppliers if they have anything new. Do you need something Ratty? LMK and I'll see if I have a cheap-o source.

Where did the flavoring for that come from Rob?

Got the pom with my DIY kit. I believe they use Loranns. I don't know if they re-bottle it or if they mix flavorings to get another flavor but there's no branding on the label.

Just started using the Loranns Pomegranate last week.
At first I was put off by it because of the "in-your-face" flavor, but...

I found that if I cut it with just a touch of capuccino or one of the Lorann "cream" flavors, that tones it down to a nice tart, not too-sweet, flavor that I really like.
I inevitably get tired of the fruit flavors fairly quickly, but I've been doing this mix exclusively for the last 4 or 5 days.

I'll bring the fixin's to the next meeting if anyone wants to give it a try.

Excellent! Well, it's not PG, but I found a 6oz bottle of the HUMCO Glycerine (VG) at walmart ($2.98) based on some suggestions from the DIY section of the forum. Some people like this, others, not so much, but at least it's available. So far all I did was put a drop of it on my atomizer and it produces TONS of vapor..which I like. No real taste that I could discern with a new atomizer so I think I"m ok with this. If anyone is aware of any issues with this PLEASE tell me! haha Now all I need is some Lorann's, flavorless nic juice (although I may just try no-nic for now) and some stuff to mix with. Baby steps hahaha...I hear if you cut the VG with vodka it gives better throat hit. Has anyone here tried this?

Vicky - Thanks for the code updates! And I think I'm good for now and don't really need anything. I'm just toying with the DIY stuff for now and will just pick stuff up as it's convenient. I may stop by that cake supply store later today to get some flavors, it's not too far from my work...yes I DO have a job believe it or not! haha

Thanks everyone for your inputs!

Speaking of s'moores....I saw that Capella's, which is highly recommended by many, (flavored shake, water flavor drops, flavor water, fruit drops, Flavored water, coffee flavors, bottled drinking water - Testimonials) has a Graham Cracker and a Double Chocolate flavor...and Lorann's has Marshmallow....MMmmmmmm s'moores. If you don't try this I will! haha Oh.. and Capella's also has a french toast! haha

Hey guys. I just posted some info. on a VIP Group Special Discount I got us with Tasty Vapor.

His Doublers are 4oz (1 ounce is equal to about 30.1 ml so this is about 118ml), zero nic. pre flavored PG/VG mix. Great value and good stuff. Perfect for a flavored base to DIY (and you can order nicotine liquids in 30mg and 45mg

Get all the discount and ordering info. here Local place to get PG& other DIY supplies??

Woohoo, bought my first three bottles of Lorann's yesterday! Who found that shop! Such a small quaint little place. So I don't have all the fixing to make a DIY juice the correct way but what I did worked. I have some "Turkish Blend" juice and I mixed about 10 drops of that with like I don't know I would say a drop and 1/2 of the strawberry flavor and it came out pretty good. Very subtle flavor but a nice aroma! I also did my first mod yesterday! It was a cart mod using the clicky spring method and it works wonderfully! THANK-YOU all for you help! I hope to make it to the meeting!
