Are you done stocking up?

[440BB]

I was updating my vape inventory just now and did a little math about my coils. I have enough drop-in coils if I changed them every two weeks to last me 51 years. I have enough premade coils if I changed them every month to last me 49 years. Yeah I'm covered. I'm chucking them when they get dirty.

I have enough toilet paper and food and face masks for two people to last about a month. And with coronavirus ........ maybe less.

And I'm not ashamed of the coils or the tp. I take my stocking up seriously.

First to 100 years wins!

Edit - nevermind, research has shown that 49+51=100

First to 1000 years wins!

You need more coils. 51 years doesnt sound convincing. And more premade coils to make it an even 50.

You know you’re right...I could live past 105 years old.

I’ve had 1.2 zenith coils on back order at FT for about a month or so and they just pushed the ship date back again to 4-4. I think I’m going to cancel the order.

I'm also waiting on the 1.2 Zeniths. I'm just letting the order sit out there. They are shipping separately, so they'll get here when they get here.

Has anyone heard of using "Soap & Water" or "Leaves" instead of TP . . . Just Sayin' . . .

Never forget: "Leaves of 3, don't wipe with me" [emoji16]

Whatever happened to using Sears Catalogs. Lol

The online ones don't work unless you print them.

Back in the Roman empire they had rows of open public toilets and leaning against the toilet was a stick with a sponge on the end to wipe your behind. When you were through you put the stick back down in the stream of running water hopefully to be cleaned well enough for the next Roman. This is where the saying "grabbed by the wrong end of the stick" originates. So there's always this method of cleaning.

So now that my vape gear/nic stocking up is pretty much complete. I'm now looking into hoarding toiletries, modern and ancient, thanks to this thread.

My wife's grandmom had a sears catalog in the outhouse.

 

[Iron Molly]

I will go back to hoarding yarn!

Stocking Your Supply For Shortages​

March 6, 2020 (Eightvape)
As the Coronavirus ravages it’s way through China, and now the rest of the world, we here in the vaping world are being hit by a shortage of all things vape. ... almost 95% of the products on the market are made in China. Currently, I believe there are only a few factories working and all of those are working with a minimal workforce so we can’t expect production to ramp up to previous levels for some time.

People are coming to blows in Australia for Toilet Paper, we are all going ... is going on here? TP? Really?

I was surprised my grocery store had restocked toilet paper today and the shelves were much closer to half full from 1/3 full. I got a 12 pack of mega rolls instead of the 8 I was going to buy last night. Because if everyone else is going to buy it all out I need to have a good amount on hand... and this is how it snowballs lol.

The lady working the shelves was at least nice enough to not laugh at me when I asked where the hand sanitizer was and said they're still getting small shipments but they sell right out.

Dad should be getting his 49 boxes of SSOCC coils today, I kept one of them to try. Since he changes coils about once a month that's 20 years worth, and he had already ordered 20 boxes of regular OCC coils. I loaded him up on mods and tanks so he just needs to get a few RTAs and he should be set.

Whatever he needs past that I should be able to help him out of my stash.

For those of you stocking up on TP, we always buy my daughter these 36 roll packs at Sams club for her and her suite mates at college. A couple of those should hold you over for a while.

@UncleJunkle Try to reduce your footprint on the earth and dont use single use TP. Why cut down co2 scrubbing trees when you can use washcloths that can be laundered by hand because washing machines and dryers use electricity.

My solution to unflavored is use so little flavoring (1%) I never tire of it so only need one flavor. That's worked for 5 years.

I only bought a couple of items that failed. I still prefer my original stockpiled RDA's and Pico's. i've been in retirement mode for the past year so the bigger clunkier stuff is okay since doesn't need to go in a pocket. I don't mind the newer stuff but it's not so superior to my early stuff.

I'm hearing speculation that if community spread takes over the number of cases by early May might be enough to fill all the hospital beds. So I'm thinking, if infection is inevitable is it better to get infected sooner and get it over with so if I need a hospital bed there will be one available.

I was actually just checking out bidet toilet seats, lol. They can be purchased for as little as a few packs of mega-roll toilet paper. Well, it would pay for itself many times over and all but eliminate single use toilet paper. My sister (who I live with) said NO WAY. Psh. She hates change. She doesn't have to use it.

I created my Vapocalypse stash back in 2016. I'd getting ready to do an inventory. I ordered 3 Pico Megas and am expecting those this week. I may panic buy a bunch of mods over the next couple of months. Man, these are scary times.

I really like my bidet but people react weirdly about them for some reason.
