Glycerin

[dotofoz]

I've found Wilton Glycerine for $2.49 for a 2 FL oz bottle at Hobby Lobby and Joan Fabrics. Wilton Glycerine is food grade glycerine and is 100% glycerine.

Apparently walmart only seem to sell non-food-grade glycerine (for skin, external use).

When i went on my hunt for glycerine i found that Hobby Lobby also sells LorAnn flavorings two bottles of 3.7ML for $3.28. They had all kinds of flavors, i picked up Grape, Apple and Raspberry today, now if only i can find some dam empty eyedropper bottles or some cheap high mg nicotine juice...

I found new, empty eye-dropper bottles in shops that sell DRIED herbs.

hahaha thanks dotofoz i have no idea where they sell dried herbs here in colorado. but i found some eyedropper bottles that seemed pretty cheap on ebay.

in an earlier post i have corrected myself, walmart does sell glycerine, it is actually USP and from what i'm reading, better than the wilton glycerine.

I bought it in the cake supplies to make fondant icing for fancy cakes. Glycerin also makes cake flowers real hard in decorating. Though, I am using it, while waiting for my e-oil. Though, I don't know if it's safe?

If anyone is familiar with Harris Teeter, a grocery store chain in the south, they carry a four ounce bottle of USP Glycerin for 99 cents. This is by far the cheapest I have seen USP

Okay so basically if I go to my local pharmacy and get some USP VG or USP glycerin (which is probably from veggis IIRC) then can I just drop a drop straight on my atty to increase the vapor? Also does it mix right in with commercial e liquid if combined in a cart, or do the two stay separated a little?

Puring them seperately into a cart would not be a good idea, you should mix them in a bottle and shake that a bit. In a cart I don't think they'd mix much at all.

If you happen to be in the UK, you can buy this one at Boots for £1.39. The label is Value Health Glycerin B.P. 200ml.

Thanks for the tip, that's good to know. I just stopped by my local Long's drugs (which is CVS) and the pharmacist told me they don't carry it. I guess I'll have to stop by walmart tomorrow.

Walmart got the Humco which I thought was pretty good-- then went to Down to Earth & bought the NOW brand VG 160z. IMHO better, both work... but NOW better.

Do you think most health food stores carry that NOW brand? I've got a health food store 5 minutes from my house, while walmart is a good 20. I'll stop by there this afternoon and check it out.

This is my first time to put forth my opinion on ECF. I watch to see and learn what people are saying and doing. I have recently tried something that I have not seen or heard of yet, and I dont know if Im messing up or hurting myself or what. I mixed my own menthol e liquid using PG unflavoured, VG, and menthol drops. It just didnt taste as good as others, it was missing something. Something Sweet! I bought 100% natural Agave Nectar from walmart. Mixed it in with the other ingredients, It tastes amazing!!! I dont know if it is safe? I wish I could post my own thread so that I could ask someone appropriatly, instead of replying to another thread. Im sorry for this! Can anyone help me find my answer though?

You can buy Wilton VG at Michaels or any place that has cake decorating supplies.

Agave Nectar is mainly fructose and glucose, which isn't unsafe to inhale but will likely clog your atomizer quickly. Post around the forums, 10 posts is not difficult to make. Just a few sentences can be a very valid post (like this one).

I found Glycerine at Majestic Mountain Sage for $4.00 for 1pound (16 oz) or 24.50 for 10 pounds, plus shipping. If you look at the MSDS, it is listed as U.S.P. They also carry dropper bottles, sample bottles and pipettes, if anyone is interested. I would not use their flavors, though, since they are all oil based. Thanks.

I can't post URLs yet, since I am a noob, but it is: www [dot] thesage [dot]com/catalog/products/glycerin-liquid-(vegetable-derived) [dot] html
