I sent that out to him today...he will probably get it on Thursday. I put some traditional tobacco 24 mg and a handful of samples...I hope it works for him. If it doesn't let me know and we will keep trying...in my opinion it is all about finding the "perfect" flavor.

One other thing..I sent him manual batteries...in my experience stubborn smoker seem to like them cuz they hit harder

36tinybells hope he can successfully make the switch.

Very awesome of you Chad sir.

Thank you so much, really! My sister was so excited when I told her- she is a nurse and ex-smoker who is at her wits end with him. I was there in September on a rare visit and she made sure he knew she was fine with me vaping in the house, no issues with vaping with her since the hospital she works at GIVES smokers (crap) ecigs when they are staying for extended periods. I hope this is a Great American Smokeout for him, he is a good guy who is reaching a point of serious issues! I will let you know how it goes!

Okay, update on the Great American Smokeout kit prize!
Got a text from my sister. 3 days in and he must be turning into a vaper because his big problem is he's having trouble finding the right flavor! So far Apple is the one he likes best!
You are awesome Chadley! The extra flavors you sent are really letting him see the possibilities, thank you so much for your generousity! Will update in a week!

That is incredible! Another smoker slowly being converted!!

 

[36tinybells]

Update- We are still working on the best vape experience. Shocking to him, but no tobaccos. Yet. He surprised himself by getting down to 3 cigs per day without noticing it! So we are getting there! Thanks again, this is taking a while, but good things usually do!
You have done a wonderful thing with this prize. Really wonderful!

Thats awesome!! It sounds like he is really giving it a go. I hope so much that he keeps trying and it works for him!

 

[36tinybells]

I know, I am thrilled! My sister was hoping for an instant fix, but I made her understand everything cigarette he doesn't smoke is gold, so she is totally on board now. Cigarettes are $5 a pack at his area, so it would be hard for him not to come out ahead vaping, and he totally gets finances. We are supposed to have a long phone call this weekend. Fingers crossed I find the words he needs- I wish he would just join ecf and read! So many great people to help you here- that is what made it click for me, multitudes of opinions until some fit my vaping style.
