75. Liking flavors of e-liquids when I don't like the same flavor in real food. That surprised me.

76. Having something to put into all those plastic storage containers I bought on sale but never used. They work nicely to keep my liquid and gear organized.

77. Not having to stop what I'm doing to light up and finish a whole cigarette. I can take a quick vape or two and continue. I get so much more accomplished.

78. Emptying the trash cans used to be a chore because the stink of the butts was overwhelming. Now my office trash smells like vanilla and butterscotch.

79. No more late at night panic because I realize I only have a couple of cigs left and I know I won't want to run to the store before having my coffee in the morning. I have juice and juice and juice to last for months.

80. A big one for me since I travel a lot--no longer worrying about non-smoking rooms in hotels. Sometimes, the only hotels with rooms available were completely non-smoking and I would spend more time outside than in my room. Now I happily vape away in the bed while watching an in-room movie or writing.

JudeD - your comments resonate 100% with me. Especially the following

- #76 - I also made use of two such organisers I was "storing for someday" LOL.

- #77 - 100% true. My only minor concern with vaping is that I can't hold my Protank and Vision Spinner in my lips to free up two hands to type or play a game on my iPad that requires 2 hands ;-)

- #78 - I used to ash and deposit my butts while smoking outside in a half filled plastic water bottle. The stench when it fell over a few times and trying to clean it up was too terrible.

- #80 - I havent thought of this one yet since I haven't travelled yet since I started 2 months ago. Can't wait. In Italy on vacation, my better half and I had to go outside our room onto the balcony for a smoke. It was tricky, since it was so tiny for us both to fit out there. We spent so much time out there, people in the road must have thought we lived on the balcony LOL. Come to think of it, you are right, at hotels I normally spend most of my time at outdoor lobby areas, when I could be relaxing in my room.

Great post

Thousands of butts not thrown on the ground. I know not everyone did, but I did and so did a lot of people I know.

Yeah, that really is disgusting and it's surprising nobody has mentioned it until now.

(FWIW, I'd normally try to find a bin, put it out, and bin it. But I'd be lying if I said I always did that...)

I knew a few seasonaires at ski resorts who would get into physical fights with people who refused to pick up their butts. They'd be there for the spring melt, when the entire valley was drinking what came off the mountain. Everyone got sick...

Ish!

I used to pay my kid 10 cents per .... to pick up the yard in the spring. She made quite a good bit most years. So gross.

135. Knowing I can stay on my sofa and vape something good when Sherlock returns on new years day
136. Not having to stay upright trying to smoke outside in all the winds that have been blowing us this week
138. Depriving the chancellor of some of my hard earned money which should be going on the nhs but somehow doesn't seem to quite get there :0(
139. Being the first in my band to quit fags. Now just have to convince them my ego isn't a penny whistle ....
 
I haven't read all the previous pages but here's a few benefits of mine:

- not having to take out the trash every time I left my condo for fear of having some still smoldering cigarette butts within
- not having to risk being struck by lightning while going outside to smoke in a thunderstorm
- not having to carry around small bottles of cologne and mouthwash every time I went to the Doctor and Dentist offices
- not having to get in my car at one o'clock in the morning to go get a pack of smokes because a few hours ago I threw away my last half pack because I quit
