Dollar-A-Day Group

[3mg Meniere]

We now have a support group for budget-minded vapers. http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/forum/groups/vaping-dollar-day.html It was created just this morning! Join, and tell us about your economies, why you are budget-minded, and anything else. When the pressure to spend gets too much to bear, we will remind you why three Provaris are two too many.

 

[Tinkiegrrl]

Um... What's wrong with 3 Provari's? One for hubby, one for me, spare for either of us to use if our main device needs to be repaired. See? There's SOME logic behind my madness. Oh, and I absolutely needed that Erlkonigin rta I just bought for $190 something. Needed the extra glass tube with it you see. Needed it! I swear!

Okay... Maybe I should join. I think I need help. However, I may wind up dragging others down the rabbit hole with me.

There is strength in numbers. If you really want to stop the progression of shinyitis, this is the place for you.

 

[Tinkiegrrl]

Progression? Oh no. I'm there. Not sure how much more I could "progress" into. I just spent almost $200 on a tank...

 

[BigCatDaddy]

I joined and posted, let's see some action on there!!

The best thing I ever did for my budget besides DIY was the purchase of my Reos. I haven't had the need to buy a single piece of hardware in months and I have been happily vaping my DIY stockpile without spending a dime.

 

[3mg Meniere]

Well, Mr. Minimalist, come on over, and tell us how you continue restraining the impulse, since making that big purchase!!

 

[3mg Meniere]

Twelve members!! Bump for the overnight crowd.

 

[alisa1970]

joined! Now I'll have to remember to check in...

I don't know if I'd want to splurge and go all the way up to $1 a day.

We need you! Come share how you keep it so low. Whatever your goal is-- is good enough for us. Goal maintenance is just as important.

I am at an astronomical $2.5/day overall, thanks to my initial outlay.
This past year though I'm down to ~50¢/day for juice and batteries.

I never buy anything without waiting at least a day.
By then I've talked myself out of it.

You are definitely using the more rigorous way of calculating cost. I am afraid to! How long before you reach a dollar-a-day total overall?

I have wishlists at several places. I generally wait a month.

This kind of calculus is beyond me
I come up with ~ 6 and a half years

LOL. I have a background in statistics. The weight of the past really slows it down.

 

[Boiler]

On the bright side, I'm saving $5/day from smoking

 

[3mg Meniere]

Twenty-three members. I can't promise I won't bump again.

We need to watch the boards, and whenever the subject comes up again, refer people to the group.

 

[glointhedark]

I have not bothered to do any calculations, but we usually manage to keep the vape budget to under $100 a month for both my daughter and me. This includes eliquid for the 2 of us, and replacement coils for our Evods. I love the fact that I can prolong the life of the coils by cleaning, and have just started dry burning. We are happy with our Evods.

 

[3mg Meniere]

A good clean and dry burn can go a long way towards extending coil life-- but not forever. Some say around three C&DB cycles. Coils may seem to be a minor expense, but it does mount up. With wick and wire, you can cut yet another cost. And that doesn't count the shipping expense with small orders.
