Are you done stocking up?

[Sara Love]

A bit of tfa raspberry works great with these two. Very few flavors are good solo according to my tastebuds.

Creams, vanilla, sweetener, marshmallow, citric acid, other stuff. It is fun and maddening all at once. I have about 150 flavors and use about 15-20. But I needed to go through all those flavors to figure it out. No one can taste it for you. Flavors are cheap compared to mods and rda's. I say go crazy and have fun.

Edit - resist the urge to buy large bottles until you know you like something.

The very basics on diy for me would be:
Creams- Sweet Cream and/or Bavarian Cream, etc (I use sweet cream in almost all recipes)
Vanillas- Vanilla Swirl, French Vanilla, etc (I use Vanilla Swirl in almost all)
Sweetener- I use TFA Sweetener mostly, but also use EM or Cotton Candy
Then you have other secondaries, like marshmallow, sour, menthol, honey, etc
And your primaries, depending on your preferences: Bakery, Fruit, Tobacco, candies, chocolate, etc.

It's usually best to find a few recipes that sound appealing and buy flavorings based on those.
Btw, Raspberry will mellow out the chemical taste of some fruits if added at a low percentage (around 2%)

Thank you.

You all have given me good info and it will help tremendously when I go shopping and I love to shop.

I plan an order to BCV on Monday though I hardly need it.

Sara,I would highly recommend getting Vanilla bourbon and Irish Cream. Great mixers. There are so many more..... I rarely if ever use sweetener but that's me.

I was put off when I tried vanilla bourbon as a standalone flavor (too high of a percentage) but once I diluted it I liked it and now that I started using it in very small percentages in some recipes I absolutely love it. Eager to try the aged bourbon cream vg I just ordered from real flavors.

Glad you ended up liking it. It's a great flavor but not alone.

Whoah! Price gouging at its finest. That stinks.

Not price gouging - that's called Wow these are flying off the shelf - I must have priced them to low!!! Ethical - maybe not, but business is business. Easy to pass on... And if it is passed on to much the price goes lower...

Morning,Semi

Haha. You are so right. I should have kept that comment to myself. good thing I'm not a business woman. Lol

Morning Fran - are you staying on the watching the sales mode?

 

[Semiretired]

Haha. You are so right. I should have kept that comment to myself. good thing I'm not a business woman. Lol

Nope, your comment was what everyone would be thinking - you were just the one that spoke up. I see it all the time.

Like when you see a BOGO deal, but don't notice that it is not a BOGO of the regular price - instead the price is raised and then the BOGO is offered...

Both of those sound really good. Thank you for the suggestions.

For the most part. I did stocking up 4-5 years ago. I have bought some stuff but not much.

You could buy the extension ring (or use one from a P3, if you have one, along with any extended cap and you can run all size batts with the different configurations. The rings are a bit pricey at 12.95 before discount. Is this what you are looking for?
They only have black, polished and satin silver so not sure what color you would need.

I guess I wasn't sure which ring fit with what. Provis don't leave the house, so "matchy-matchy" wouldn't be the end of the world..... Thanks for the info

 

[ScandaLeX]

Just wanted to make sure I wasn't breaking the rules. I'm a rule follower.

Ohhhhhhh you poor thing! We'll have to do something about that!

 

[rosesense]

Are you psychic? Or do things float around somewhat there typically?

I just looked and they're still the same so I'll check later on tonight and see. However I see they came down on those $149 Provaris.

They ticked me off so much. I started a chat to ask about the price hike on the Vari's and 'Skylar' came on the chat, read what I said and exited without a word. Poor CS, if you ask me. I was nice in what I wrote, just wanted to know why they jumped the price up. I was never going to buy there again but checked back in case they had a glitch or made a mistake and saw other things had been changed and the Vari's were back to original price. I think they wanted it to look like they 'dropped' the price to boost sales or something. If you do end up ordering and if it is 60.00, split it into two orders, use code getcarded and at least get 4.00 off each order,plus free shipping. I am out to get them after that gouging. lol

ETA: Yes, it is gouging. At first I thought the same as Semi but when they dropped the price after only a few hours and put the 149.99 price there with the 'reduced' price, I believe it was all done to make it look like a reduction in price. They knew what price Provape is selling them and they know how much they paid for them. They have had some for sale for months so not like they suddenly felt they had underpriced them. I am probably one of the few buying them and the only reason is that I wanted colors I couldn't get from Provape.

Now if someone had the metallic bronze, I might consider overpaying for that one.

 

[SmilingWolf]

He is a beauty, so elegant. What color LED did you get?

Green. My mini Dragon is red - which does seems more fitting for a Dragon (fire).

 

[SmilingWolf]

I came so close to ordering one today but somehow resisted it. After seeing how beautiful yours is, I give up. Going to order it right now.

If you're going to do it, now is probably the time. My only issue is ... now that I like it so much ... I feel like I need a second of the same as a back up. Never ends.

I never thought of that. Now I wish I had one with red LED. I have green and blue.
