e-cig gadgets are addictive!

[Tober138]

Its not an addiction its a hobby.OK?

And rationalization is a skill

Been vaping for 5 days and already spent over $200 loading up on stuff. I thought this was suppose to be cheaper than smoking lol.

I been vaping for 6 weeks and my desk looks like a drug processing lab..LOL Getting OD feeling all the time!! Wheeeeeee

 

[JohnnyPhive]

Its been just over 4 weeks. 25 bottles, 3 kits, 2 xtra batts, 10 attys and 2 chargers later and I have not gone over what I would spend on analogs in a month.

Then again I smoked 2-3 packs a day at $5+ a pack, I think that's like $450 or so. Give or take.

Besides I am having way more fun trying stuff than I ever did collecting "miles" and such. And I already feel ten times healthier.

What i had spend on e cig equipments can account for me smoking analogs for 10 months. But i'm not complaining...enjoying every moment of it..

Happily vaping on

Heh... an in the beginning vaping was supposed to "SAVE" us money. HAHAHAHAH!!!!

Spending money on E-cigs or things that are worthless...hummmm...I'll spend it on my E-cig toys!!!Giggle, Giggle

Its not an addiction its a hobby.OK?

I have actually said this to my boyfriend.

 

[wardge76]

I'm right there with everyone else here... I still think I am spending less than the $300+ a month I was spending on analogs, but I sure am enjoying the ride

Im addicted to the idea of all this but not all the batts and mods. I bought a Prodigy V3 yesterday and I am very happy with it. Might spend a little more on some flavors but not much I was abel to try out quite a bit of them at Vapefest so I know what i want without buying something that sounds good and then not liking it.

I just visted VapeFest in St. Louis really not intending to spend any money and just maybee pick up some free juice samples. Spent 100$. Oh well. I sure am having fun and it's not killing me! I love this!

 

[rhsmitty]

PS - I think i will for sure be attending VApefest in Las Vegas next year. Good mini vacation! BTW, my permanat lady partner who is a non-smoker, non-vaper went with me to vapefest St. Louis and actually enjoyed it and encouraged my to go ahead and spend the money and is looking forward to next year in LV. We also determined that she is now officially a 'Vapors Wife'!

 

[friskyweasel]

I've spent over 2k since I started lol.

but based on your signature banner (already saved $1,200+ bucks so far), you could justify it by saying you only really spent $800

 

[Randybu80]

hell i was smoking 2 packs a day thats 12 dollars a day. $360 a month ive been vaping for maybe 2 months. ive not spent anywhere near 600 on vaping that includes my 80$ radio rip off or the crap i bought at at the liquor store ive vaped maybe 60ml of juice now i have a joye and i chain vape way more that i smoked but i love it and its cheapper what the hell i have a hobby now.

I'm sure that after 6 weeks of vaping that I have spent more than I would have smoking. However, now that I have collected the equipment and juices that I like, my ordering should slow down. I don't think that I can put a price on not coughing any more, not having to take two Motrin every night for the headache anymore, not smelling like an ashtray anymore, or not irritating pets, children, and coworkers anymore. I couldn't be happier.
Also, thanks to all the folks who have taught me so much posting on this forum!

I just got my joye 510 starter kit 2 nights ago after USPS priority "misplaced" it for a week.

As of this moment I've spent just over $400 on vaping supplies. Online... clicking.... charging.......

It all happened.... so... fast.

I guess the last 24 hours have been a whirlwind of absorbing research, buying, and sleep deprivation. Honestly it all is a little fuzzy.

$400 later I do know I bought about 10 attys mix of LR and reg, 18 bottles of juice from 4different suppliers, syringes, empty bottles, carts, cartos, a 5v passthrough, chargers, batteries, adapters, cables and I figured screw it, might as well finish it off with a bang and just got a gold BUZZ VV mod.

And I don't have a lot of cash either, not a rich guy. But hey smoking is yesterday, and just from a few pulls off my joye with some crappy chinese sample flavors and low voltage I can tell I am gonna be a walking vape box for years to come. (As long as they don't ban it.)

Bring on the juice!

I look at it as an investment....in gear, savings, flavors, health, happy family, etc...

The newness and excitement will/may wear off shortly......nah...it is still a growing thing.....always new gear coming out, flavors, etc.....

It is just soooooo much better than the alternative though....

I will just keep investing in happy healthfulness!!!!

 

[zerotao]

I feel much better now, I have only dropped $400 so far, only one purchase was a mistake, but it did get me off analogs...

 

[christina7]

I've got equipment, spares and enough juice I really like (after trying a bunch) to last me at least a couple of months, so I do not foresee any further e-cig spending until the leaves start to turn.

the leaves are starting to turn.....
