I was running out of my daily minty/menthol mix I make and I was curious because I had never takin the time to plug in all the numbers but I realised my daily vape is $ .10 per ML. This is using wizard labs nic with 4 TPA flavors. Not to shabby IMO. I made 40 ML @ 24 mg and final cost for the bottle was $3.86. I am pretty happy with that.

I vape about 5-6 ML a day in a tank and with a carto lasting at least a week I figure I am under 6 ish dollars a week now. That is way cheaper then smoking at roughly 25 bucks a month.

Yep the real way to save money on vaping is DIY juice. Mine is only 1.52 for a 30mL :) mostly thanks to the gallon of usp PG I got at tractor supply. It astounds me how much of a premium you pay to vendors for that stuff but I guess if they sold a lifetime supply to everyone for $20 they wouldn't make much money :D. I could get the cost down even more if I could afford upfront a more conectrated nic level. I only use 8mg/ml nic though

This is the reason I started DIY-- to save money. Once you figure out what flavors work for you it gets even more affordable because then you can buy bigger sizes of your favorites. I use the tractor supply too for PG. Never calculated my average cost per bottle made but I'm pretty sure I'm doing ok because I gravitate to sales and never buy anything without checking the deals & steals and coupon code list.

I sure hope I'm saving more than $25 a month. Cigs cost me about $10 a day so that was about $300 a month. If I'm not saving at least $250 something's wrong.

I was thinking the same thing, I was spending $6 to $7 per day, $25 would have blown through in less than a week. . .

OP Congratulations! That's the beauty behind the beast of DIY. :vapor:
