I just found this group. Is there a meet being planned. I live in Buffalo and would love to get to know some local people that vape. I would be nice to talk to people about vaping instead of what it is and where to get one.

We are actually planning a meet in rochester right now. It's on 9/11 at pineapple Jack's at 2 pm right now. We will work toward a meet closer to buffalo (maybe even a little further west like fredonia or something) at that time depending on interest. I live in Pembroke (east pembroke really) close to Batavia if u know where that is....

thanks Heather. i really hope i can do it. it's been a long time since i've gone on an adventure alone (long story) and i'm really hoping it works out. unfortunately, it's all schedule contingent... but it's looking better by the day. mostly looking forward to the possibility of being around people who won't say, "what's that?" :glare:

Welcome aboard Pete! We'd love to have you at the Rochester meet! And as Heather mentioned, if you can't make it, hopefully you guys can get a meet together in the Buffalo area sometime. Exciting! :toast:

OK I now have 15 car charger to give to anyone who needs one... 901 connector I believe.

Also got a message from Vaporrenu and Jason is sending me a care package!

Can't wait to see everyone there!!

Wow! You're just little miss PR, aren't you? Great job! :thumbs:

not for sure yet... but i might very well be able to swing down I-90 to meet ya'll. just waiting on some last scheduling details from my wife. one of the rare times it's tough being a one car family...:unsure:

It will be great if you can make it Rat. I'll put your name on the list for possible attendees. I was just thinking....once you Buffalo area folks get to know each other, maybe you'll be able to carpool to the Rochester meets? Something to think about anyway.

Everyone I do apologize for not being around much. There will be no problem with all meeting at Pineapple Jacks. I still have to ask the owner about the far back room. My roommate rented out the room for the night last new years and the owner only wanted him to order a bunch of food and the room would be free. I will still look into it and to see if possibly I could get the same deal. Food would be bar food like fries, chicken fingers, wings etc. If I can get a deal for something along those lines and if people are willing to spend a few bucks for food I can probably front the money. We would be talking the price of a typical lunch depending on how many show up.

One side note, reason for me being so busy and not being on here much is my father is ill at the moment. I have been busy running him back and forth to Canandaigua, Buffalo, and Syracuse VA hospitals. They may have found something on one of his lungs. Yes he is a smoker. One of the biggest reasons I am still trying to quit all analogs for good. Vaping has helped me cut down TREMENDOUSLY.

So we're talking like 10-15$ a person? about roughly. that sounds pretty cool actually.

Prayers still going out for you and your family!

It all does depend on how many will attend. I will find out for sure as soon as I can and let everyone know. I was thinking/hoping $8-$10. It would be strictly to ONLY cover the cost of the meal. If I was in the position I would pay for it and nobody would have to worry about a thing but right now I'm living on my unemployment while awaiting my student loans to go through.

Thank you for the prayers, they are MUCH MUCH APPRECIATED. My father is my hero. I cannot fathom a world, or my world, without him.

Just talked with Harry from Vapor Bomb. He is sending some business cards and if he can get the time, some 50/50 12mg samples :) VB is such a fantastic company!

Good!! 4 suppliers now supplying samples... GREAT job!!! These guys are really willing to help out. If anyone has any other suppliers they have used try to contact them as well.

We have:
AwesomeVapor provided business cards.
EcigaretteCigar provided 15 car chargers to give away business cards and a couple sample bottles.
iVape.net provided business cards and a few sample bottles.
VaporRenu don't know what I'm getting yet but Jason said he'd send a care-package.
Then vapin got Vapor Bomb to send some stuff. COOL

So really if any of you use any other suppliers please try to contact them with just a brief message about what we're planning and just see if they don't send SOMETHING for the meet. Most will happily do so.

(FYI CaminoDiablo is not an addition to the list... He's my husband so technically already on the list LOL)

Im from the buffalo area...west seneca to be exact! Ive been to rochester a couple times but i never really partied there or went to any bars. I think my friend told me about that place though...Does it have like 3 floors? Because he said he went to a bar that had 3 floors and was a really cool place that was near you..

I wonder....will we need the room? I mean, if we only have 10 people, should we still get the room?

Hey, don't worry about it Rob.....take care of bizness first. I know what you mean....I have a FT job, an 89 yr old mother and 3 grandchildren that keep me pretty busy. Sometimes I can't get on here either. Hope everything works out okay for your dad.

Thank you for the prayers, they are MUCH MUCH APPRECIATED. My father is my hero. I cannot fathom a world, or my world, without him.

Same here. Mine passed away in '99 and it's never the same after, no matter how many years pass by :(

Great that you can make it TV! I'll add you to the list. Unfortunately, there is no way to seclude a group and message them. When I tried to get the group going, I was able to pull out any profile that had "NY" in it (almost 800 of them then!). I had to click on each one to see where they were from....it was a lot of work. That is why I only sent out invites to those that were listed in our area....or said "Upstate NY" in their location. Not many of them have responded either. I think the only thing we can do is if we see someone who is in our area but isn't a member here, send them the link. OR....if you frequent the newb forum and see some there, you can also give them our link along with a welcome. I just use my sigline for now.

I'm an Atheist and I'll be there :toast: that makes 3 of us lol

LMAO!
