The vape shop I typically go to sells 120mL of house juice for $40. That lasts me about 2 weeks, but it definitely gets costly! Are there cheaper places to find juice (ex: online) or should I go with learning to make my own? I'm fairly new to vaping but understand the basic principles. Any input is most appreciated. =)

I make my own juice and it is a bazillion dollars cheaper than the so called Premium Juice-----sold at shops.....

Is it difficult to learn how to do? I know that for a tank you usually go 70/30 on the VG and PG, but honestly beyond that I don't have a clue how to make my own lol.

I went to Tractor Supply Store and got a gallon of Propylene Glycol---20.00 and then to Walmart for small bottle of Glycerne---6.00....

and found some Loranns Flavors concentrated candy making flavors.........mix 50/50 of pg/vg and add 10 drops of flavor and

try it.....if too much flavor cut back on the drops or add if it is not strong enough............add a few drops of Menthol from

a vape shop juice source to give it some life and throat hit and you are all set........

You should of course realize that as soon as you post asking about cheap juice the obvious answer is DIY. Any vaper serious about cheap and good juice eventually comes to that. It's not that hard to pick up on, just get the basic ingredients, nic, VG, PG, and flavors then have at it. Just jump right in and do it. You might waste a bit of juice in the beginning, but in time you will be happy you did it, and you just might surprise yourself with what you can produce on your own :)

You might also want to read the blogs by dannyv45 and several others before trying DIY. There's a lot of things to learn, be careful of, etc. especially when working with sometimes pretty strong nic base.

By the way, the trucker, that VG cost you $6 at your Walmart? I bought the identical bottle at mine and it was $3.88. I wonder why? It wasn't on sale, and was the same at 3 other Walmarts, too, in my area.

I'm pretty sure the TSC stuff isn't USP grade purity.

I don't know the purity of this stuff but this is the label.....It came from Tractor Supply Store---it say's for animal use only but aren't we all animals....lol...View attachment 533813 ......


Oh. I was wrong. Yours is USP grade. The TSC stores in my area are not. Looks like you got a deal.

Interesting how different places have different stuff.......thx for the reply.....I learned something...........

I have been vaping this stuff for a year now and so far so good---probably should have ordered from a vape shop but this jug was handy..

at the time.........
