Im in South St. Paul. My local tobacco shop carries some OK liquid, but overcharges. I haven't been to any shops in town, I think there are at least two though. There is a kiosk in the Roseville mall that carries a good locally made eliquid. Called smokeless smoking. Their 503 Blend 4 is a really tasty RY4. Their prices for liquid are not too bad. Carry the lavatube there, and eGos, and minis. Didn't buy any hardware from them.

I don't get out a whole lot, but definitely do not see other vapers anywhere I go. I swear Im the only person in South St. Paul. All of my bars know me and don't have a problem with me vaping there which is nice.

I use mostly Volt gear these days, though I do have a few old eGos tht I just bought a Vivi Nova for.
Where in Roseville Mall? Do you mean Rosedale Shopping Center or somewhere closer to Har Mar?

We are close. I'm just across from Ridgedale. Looking at upgrading to something else probably VV. Did you get a good deal and where'd you get it? I know someone's gonna have an incredible sale for Halloween- but also thinking of buying diy juice supplies. Just got laid off so trying to decide which way to go since I have 6 KR808's. Kinda went crazy with those Bloog 102's they're blowing out for 8 bucks. OMG this vaping thing is becoming as bad as my shoe addiction!! I have 2 clothing wardrobes and my regular bedroom closet is all shoes :) At least I'm not hoarding cats!

Howdy neighbor. I'm off of 169 and Rockford.
I tried to get into vaping about a year or so back, using an Ego and regular carts. Was completely unsuccessful. Just started again a couple weeks back. I'm now almost 3 full days without a puff of a stinky, using a Knight Rider/Lavatube with a Cartomator tank, and IKV Fusion 801 Cartos. Loving it!

I got my VR juice from Ecig crib. I called the VR guy. I'm curious about the shop. Might check it out on Thurs. Are you Vaping while sitting on that iceberg in your avatar? Lol
It's not the worlds largest shop but I like it and you can try it before you buy which is nice.

I am off of Pilot Knob and Dodd. So not really Farmington, more so Lakeville/AV but still have a Farmington address. And that is where I just bought my new setup from. They seem like a good group of people. I really like a lot of their flavors that they have. I am glad I have a juice resource near by. Though I think I am going to try my hand a DIY juice when I get paid this week.

I'm in st. cloud so an hour away.

I got my first setup from ecigshopmn, they have a store front in Anoka.

I really recommend there shop and juice line. Only negative is that they commonly are out of stock of vision ce4s, and batteries. I wouldn't buy a whole 'kit' from them because it is usually cheaper to just get a usb passthrough ego battery and a few devices to use it on. They also have a wide range of vv devices.

I'm down in Lakeville (originally from Buffalo) and have been vaping since about July. I am a big fan of Vermillion River (both the products, and the people) and buy most of my stuff from them. They have some awesome flavors of juice at great prices, but I also mix a lot of my own juice since I vape so much. I used a Modern Vapor Sidesho cigalike for a few months, then found out about Vermillion River. I bought two eGo-C Twist's from them in late October, and was instantly hooked on variable voltage. I ordered up a Provari V2 last Friday, and am anxiously awaiting its arrival.

New member in Burnsville, here! I didn't realize there were so many MN members.. I first started with ecigs years ago right when they first came out in the US, but gave up on them, as the technology wasn't satisfactory, in my opinion.. Then about a year ago, I tried some of the newer designed, and found they have come a long way! I have a a few friends who use them as well, but I generally don't run into too many vapers, but I do make new converts every so often.. I started out with the cig-clone 510s, then switched to egos, currently using ego twist with a Vivi Nova mini. I'm about to take the plunge into the whole genesis-style atomizer thing.. We'll see how that goes. I'd like to get some sort of high-end hybrid in the near future, but am pretty frustrated by the fact almost all the high-end devices are out of stock all the time, due to low production capacities.. Hopefully the manufacturers will start getting caught up to the demand sometime soon..

im from the little-known-town of circle pines, in between blaine and lino lakes. ive been noticing a lot more people switching to vaping, expecially younger people. my go-to shop has to be smokeless smoking. they can be found at rosedale mall by the caribou, maplewood mall by the carousel, burnsville mall, and they even have a vape lounge in bloomington! super friendly, well educated people. ive gone there with no intention of making a purchase just to chat with the employees plenty of times, so they all know me and my gfs names now. highly reccomend you give them a try if your ever in those areas. kind of dissapointing that no one has a shop in dinkytown/uptown! i guarantee all of those hipster college kids would throw their american spirits away tomorow is one opened up :p plus that would be a cool place to avoid all of the smokers during my lunch break
 
i live in ramsey/minneapolis. bought my first setup from ecig crib...great store. i agree that it can be a little spendy, but worth it for what they have and the ability to actually try things and talk to people about it. i now get most of my thiings online (waiting for an innokin svd when they ship monday) but i totally reccommend ecig crib to anybody starting out in the area.

Hey guys! I live in NE Mpls and have been vaping since Thanksgiving. The e-cig crib is okay, but you have to make sure you're not buying Chinese knock-off products there. I've been going to Vermilion River for months now and you can't beat their prices and custy service. But, I just found a new place that is closer to home two days ago and it's in Bloomington on Lyndale. It's called smokeless smoking. They carry their own brand of e-juice called 503 that is pretty tasty but a little spendy. I did pick up a couple flavors in 15ml while I was there.

Whatever you do, try to avoid the brick and mortar store on the weekends. It is catching on so fast that all of the shops get packed to the gills and it's hard to get service.

The Vermillion River staff is very helpful and knowledgeable and are in the 40-50 age demo. And, they know their stuff.

The e-cig crib seems to have a mixture of younger and older staff.

The smokeless smoking shop in Bloomington is run by younger folks. They have fewer flavors, but out of the 5 I tried, all of them were very mature tasting. They arent overly sweet or tart. They have some good blends of flavors that don't make you pucker.

All good shops in my opinion. But, Vermillion River is my favorite...just wish it was closer to home.
