DIY Deals

[PepNYC]

"DIY Deals" is the OP so I jumped on here thinking I'd find a few bargains and I did

GeorgiaBoy and PepNYC...I clicked your links... $3.99 for 100 ml VG and then $2.99 to ship it...at Liberty-? my calculator is broken

When I just checked LF it was actually $6.39 for 100ml VG + $2.99 shipping. Make sure you click on the 20% Off thingy at the top left of the page so you get the 20% discount. For DIY VG and PG and unflavored NIC juice I usually use myfreedomsmokes. They are local to me and I can go pick it up. Saves me the $5.00 shipping but even with shipping I think they still have good DIY prices. I can get 225ml of unflavored NIC juice for about $13.

Liberty Flights has always had consistently low prices. I've done a lot of business with them. Very pleased with their service although I can't speak for their DIY line. After reading several people's nic reviews I went with Wizard simply because they seem to have a solid track record for nic quality (in regards to purity). Cost wise, you get more for your money with Wizard Labs compared to Liberty-Flights.

In the shopping cart:

WL 36mg nic 250ml w/ no coupons or promotions = $16.29

Shipping options (to 64119):
Parcel Post = $5.55
Priority = $5.65
Naturally I'm willing to pay a dime for faster shipping, so that brings my grand total to: $21.94

Liberty Flights is currently out of stock on one of the the two nic base sizes they offer - 150ml and 30ml, both at 36mg. Currently I only see the option to buy nic base w/ VG @ 30ml - BUT let's play some more with the numbers anyway, estimating shipping costs using the available 5 x 30ml option since it's all I can add to my cart at the moment.

LF 36mg nic 150ml (after clicking the 20% off image) = $12.39

Shipping (one option, to 64119) = $2.99
LF Grand Total = $15.38

A little more math using the above "to-my-door" Grand Totals:
WL = $21.94 / 250 = .0877/ml
LF = $15.39 / 150 = .1026/ml

Even with the sale LF comes out slightly more expensive which means if you find WL on a good (coupon code) day, you could get an even steeper discount on their already low prices.

Keep the deals cominG!

Did ya check myfreedomsmokes? They've got some good quality unflavored NIC juice. Then again I only get the 24mg nic so the 36mg may be a bit more expensive.

And......coincidently I JUST got an email that they are running a sale on all unflavored nic juice. 20% off. Use the coupon code "20NIC".

 

[JUDGMENT AFFIRMED]

Just ordered 500 ml of 100mg/ml from RTS. After buying nic from Wizard {500ml} and RTS [120ml] in late November, and after comparing the clarity, I could see no difference. I just couldn't pass up 20% off on the Made in the USA nic. Thats only $7 more on 500ml compared to Wizard.

Well. There ya go. Wizard Labs wins @ $21.94.

RTS is $26.30 shipped for 250ml of 36mg, no coupon.

.1052 / ml

EDIT: The prices between quantities/concentration could be different when you move away from 250ml/36mg. I've just been using that as the standard for comparison.

True. I usually get 24mg so its a bit cheaper.

 

[graybuck]

I found it closer to .046 if you buy 100mg nic 250ml, VG 1000 ml, PG 1000 ml and mix my own base. You can make a lot of juice with that purchase at WL.

 

[Shilo]

RTS is having a 20% off sale right now and My Freedom Smokes is too. The best price changes with the sales. Check the deals and steals thread before you buy anything.

Does NIC juice have a shelf life? That's alotta juice! Wow.

 

[myxomatosis]

Shelf life depends heavily on storage.

There would be a lot more people into DIY if they knew you could make your own juice @ .05/ml. Nicely done gray.

 

[glassmanoak]

I put my nic into glass bottles and put into the freezer. It doesn't freeze solid or expand. It will keep for years in the freezer.

Did I read somewhere that some places dilute their VG with distilled water? I seem to remember someone saying that their VG was more aqueous but don't remember if they said where they bought it. I'd rather use my own distlilled water to dilute when I want to. Don't want to buy it watered down already! I wonder if that's why prices are so widely varied on vendor sites?

Just went on a couple sites: 500 ml of VG at RTS is $13.50
500 ml of VG at WL is $ 9.49
1 pint of VG at Essential 2.74
Does it boil down to shipping costs or are the cheaper ones diluted?

Greed.......

 

[Striker911]

I get my VG from walmart. Its about the same price as WL but you save on shipping if you had to be at WM anyways. Them gallons are an awesome deal. Says the sale ends on tomorrow. Wish I had the money.

 

[PepNYC]

Greed.......

Yep. Pure GREED.

It's a shame we can't even be sure we're getting what we are assuming we are paying for.

" if you had to be at WM anyways." Haha...nice. I think almost everyone can find a reason to be at Wally World. They have EVERYTHING!!! ... Don't they?

 

[vsummer1]

I get my VG at CVS when they have the 2 for 1 sales. Easy, cheap and convenient. And I don't have to store mass amounts in my dark closet. I just picked up a bunch of 100 mg/ml nic on sale also (used WL for the price) but that gets repackaged and stored in the freezer at the condo. Serves 2 purposes: keeps the space used up in the freezer so it is more efficient and stops any oxidation of the nic. Only problem is that if the apocalypse comes I would have to get to the city to get it!

Thanks for the thread!

I did not know this one. How much a gallon a WM (she asks even though she has over a gallon already!)

I dont think they sell by the gallon. They have 6 oz for $3.88. I try to pick one up every time I go into WM.
