i'm not talking about the nicotine, i mean the perpetual "grass is always greener" search for your next pv/juice.

i have equipment i'm perfectly happy with, i have juice suppliers i'm perfectly happy with yet i can't shake this vague feeling of dissatisfaction with what i do have and the feeling that i'm 1 purchase away from having my mind blown. i'm already window shopping just in case i get money for christmas.

this is literally the most addictive hobby i've ever had, to the point that my other hobbies are suffering. anybody else in the same boat?

:oops:Ya me too...exactly...always looking for something better....but its already so much better than cigs. So Im not sure what it is that drives us for more more more. I'm going to have to force myself to be on a bugget...50 for my vaping habit a month. That is AFTER I'm able to order my two more Reos! And I can save that up...incase a new awsome mod shows up someday! I have a gallon of e juice and about 20 bottles of flavors!

Yup, same here. Can't seem to get enough juice and try new flavors. Have an entire box of them and still ordering more almost every day. Some are awesome, some not so.
Will hate to see my credit card bill in January, ouch! At $58 a carton for regular cigs, this is still a bargin. I figure I'll stop ordering juices sooner or later....not! LOL

Guilty as charged! This has taken priority in my hobby intrests as well. I was under some delusion that I was going to be somehow saving money by quitting analogs. Although, If I were to sit down and do some calculations im sure im still ahead. There are way too many shiny toys and yummy flavors out there! The juice is my downfall............. I NEED da JUICE:)

I wish I could have the opportunity but I am retired so I am $$ conscious. I have tried a few attys and cartos but is stuck with eGo models. I am currently using 510 and Joye eGo mega cone. The mega is bigger than a standard atty. It produce a satisfactory amount of vapor since the heating bridge is much bigger. But being bigger does not mean its good for everyone. I have to adjust myself to the design of the mega atty to finally get satisfaction. No I am not addicted in a 'hobby' sense.

I've noticed that the excitement of just replacing smoking analogs is what fuels my "craze" for liquids, PV parts, boxes for storage...

It's SLOWLY fading, now that I know how much I vape a day, what I usually like in a vape, and my "treat vapes" that I occaisionally vape.

Also, I've been crocheting and knitting more since the inconvenience of analogs and yarn is no longer an issue.

Try your best to do other hobbies and keep vaping, but try you hardest not to think about "I wonder how this flavor tastes on this PV..." :p It's really difficult, but I'm slowing down (somehow) :laugh:

I've spent the majority of money on the starter kits with trademarks slapped onto KR808s. Pretty sure I'm content with the eGo and should be for a while. With 3 orders currently on the way, I probably spend around $100 on average a week since Thanksgiving. haha. Glad I've ended my search.. I hope!

My cig habit expense was around $350-400/mo, so I'm quite happy spending HALF that on seemingly endless vaping goodies.
Next up will be the ego-T !!

I saw a video of the Ego-T (unfortunately it wasn't in English). That might be the only device that draaaaags me away from my favorite 510. I've been real happy with my lil 510, so we haven't had the expense of ordering different kits to try out other devices. BUT... now that I'm a little more comfy with the whole e-cig thing I want to try some different flavors. We have some flavored juices coming (gawd I wish they'd get here already!). Someone from another forum is sending us (hubby and I) each a carto filled with HIS favorite juice. I've never tried a carto so if I end up liking that more, well.... cha-ching, more stuff to order, lol.

I think, for the most part, it's just the new-found novelty of it all. I'm *hoping* that once I get more settled in with it and find the flavors I just can't live without, I'll be spending a lot less money. At least I hope so!

I was exactly like this when I first started vaping. So much so that I feared I would go completely broke if I did not get it under control. My friends here told me not to worry that the phase of buying every juice and flavor in sight would pass with time. They were right. It really will get better. Hope that helped.

Yep, bought a ton of different flavored juices from a few different vendors (Although I am lucky I found Tasty Vapor and Ms T's pretty early in my vaping life, so did not buy too many juices I did not like at all). Now I am making my own juice and have bought all kinds of different flavors for that. I have a 510, a Saber Touch Mod at 6V, 1 box mod at 3.7V and 1 box mod at 5V, I have a Riva and now have a LEO on the way!! So, yeah it is a little expensive, but still less than the stinkies!
