6 months and it's going great

[dirtmonkey]

Just noticed I've hit 6 months without smoking, yay me!

I haven't had much to post about here, my preferred juices settled into pretty boring home made ones, and I've been mostly alternating a few eGo/T & similar things with smallish tanks with Cig2O emergency backups from the corner store. And really, I'm down to hardly even vaping unless I have a drink in my hand. So effortless, even enjoyable, compared to the stress and relapses from straining to quit smoking on patches and gum and drugs... and less $$$ out too. I'm lovin' it

hey dirtmonkey, yay for you on the 6 months w/o smoking!
I also use a ego, what smallish tanks do you use and from what vendors? How much did you invest to start making homemade juice?
Again congrats on the 6mos I'm about 1/2 the way there

Good for you, best of luck to you and keep up the good work.

Thank you.

2oldnot2, I have been getting random things from NWVapors (he is local and fast) and a kiosk at a local mall... Honestly I haven't paid much attention to brands for a while, because the differences haven't been that great any more. Most things work, and the few that don't get replaced. The one I can ID right now is the CE4 Clear "Cartomizer" which is just a tank and atomizer without any filler fiber stuff.

For the juices--- well, I bought a LOT of things I ended up giving away, because I discovered that I don't like the flavors I thought I would at first, so I spend a couple hundred experimenting around. I had a BIG collection of flavor concentrates. But, I have been going on the same $30 bottle of nicotine liquid and a cheap bottle of extra VG, plus about half a dozen flavor concentrates, for months, with at least a couple more months of nic left, and at least several months, maybe a year or more, of flavors left. If I had to start over right now it would probably be $40-50 for everything for the juices, that would last a long time.

Congrats! I am dipping my toes in the DIY juice pool myself. For less than I have spent in the last month on juice...I have at least a year worth of supplies. If I can make it work and stop buying gizmos I'll rack up some savings. Either way...I feel better.
