Living on Guam almost everyting must be imported, with that said everything can be a bit more on the expensive side. I bought a Ego starter in august 2013 for about $85 included a 10ml blueberry juice 18nic, I played with it for a bit and added some menthol $12 per 10 ml to the juice which made it a little better. Still smoked 1.5 packs a day of Paul Mall greens at $5 a pack. Just vaped once or twice a week at the time. In late January 2014 I picked up a twist vv bat, along with a two or three diferent Juices and a few clearos at about $100 for the vv twist to include 1 clearo topper and charger $6 each for the extra clearos and about $12 for the juices. Started to vape more and more and smoked less and less till I was down to two cigs per day in mid Feb. Toward the last few days in feb I pulled the plug on Cigs compleatly, Bought a few more juices In various nic strength from 18-6 and a few more Cheap toppers. The other day I pulled the trigger on a vamo 5 and all the stuff to make it work. so here is what I am looking at.
Items purchased at local B&M stores
Ego starter $85
Various juices $200
various toppers $100
VV twist type bat (kit set) $100
--------
estimated total rounded up $500
First online purchase Mt. Baker Vapes
Vamo V5, Batts, 1 juice, 1 PT2M
extra coils, charger. $148.42 (includes shipping)
So this $650 shocked me as I had not realized I had spent this much so quickly. I then started to look back on my 25 years of smokeing, and added up the cost. When I started it was about $3 per pack of Marlborro, then went up to about $8, a few years ago I switched to Pall Malls which have remained steady at about $5. Using the $5 per day for 25 years came out to $45,625. Lets round that up to an even $50,000. That comes out to $3,802 per year!!!! It blows my mind. not included are the many times I wasted doctors visits for half used Chantix, niccorett, patches etc...
Back to the present and future, I do not anticipate spending more than $50 per month on Vape suplies which will run in the average of $600 per year. Was it worth it to make the switch? Well my family loves it that I no longer smoke and stink in fact I smell like a donut shop. I feel better knowing I am no longer inhaling all those chemicals, by breathing is getting better, as well as my sense of smell. And although my wallet is curently empty I look foward to the savings to come.
Again was it worth it? Yup, every penny.
