Do you make your own juice or buy stock?

I've recently purchased a bunch of stuff to make my own, so I can experiment with new flavors tweaked to how I would like to have them.. however.. it isn't as easy as I would have thought! Gotta hand it to the pros.. they can mix em up well! I'm still trying, but it seems expensive to get a whole ton of flavors from all these different places, seems like the flavors cost as much as juice does! I think in the long run, it will be more cost effective, but collecting flavors is a pain, when I think of all the money I could be spending just ordering from a vendor and having them deal with the mixing and measuring lol..

I do have to say.. If you have an iPhone or iTouch, and you're planning to try out your own mixing, the ejuice app is a MUST! Quick and easy and saves me a long calculating process!

Good luck :)

xanax,
I can make my own for approximately 11¢ per ml. To me, that's cheaper than buying the premade stuff anyday. For me it's all about control, control over nic levels (mg), PG/VG ratios, taste, etc. Granted it takes some time and a good juice calculator (like scubatdan's), but it is so worth it!

Good luck and happy (vaper) trails!

I mostly make my own except for a couple of flavor's I haven't nailed down yet (tobacco's are hard).
I got started making my own out of sheer frustration with the nic strength most vendor's carry. Trying to find some place that carries my flavors I want + 0mg to cut it down with is horrible.
Very few places carry 8mg or less and if they do it's A)not in the flavor I want B.) far to expensive for what I'm willing to pay.

I buy premade stuff. I know doing it msyelf would be far cheaper and Id have control over the ingredients a little more but even so, I don't want to put that much time into it.
I didn't roll my own smokes, and I cant see me doing any more on DIY than mixing premade stuff to get a new taste (thats easy enough lol), or doing what Jase said.
I want hassle free and juices last me a LONG time so the cost isn't that expensive. Its still miles cheaper than buying a carton of smokes, and lasts a LOT longer than a week lol.
For ease and convenience then, I buy what others have sweated over (though hopefully not INTO...) to make :D
