I only live 15mins away. I went home yesterday to get something for the boys and switched them out. Holy crap. I just went back and actually checked. If I count the little bottles etc I actually have 19 total. Wow maybe I do have a problem. He doesn't even have that many total! And half I gave him

19...now that's more like it! Ha! He lives like 85 miles away, so I can't just run back to the house if I forget something. That's why I always take so much with me. Everything else I have duplicates of there, but my juice, well I'm not leaving that behind! :D

Are yours with extra flavor?

I can't remember if I did or not on this last one. That one was a reorder for me. Will have to check and see.

If it's all the same to you guys, I think I'm just gonna stick with this thread and this thread only on ECF.

Not trying to stir anything up and it's probably just me, but on the main juice discussion forum, it's a little like Groundhog Day (the movie). Same 5-10 companies constantly discussed. Same thread topics begun by noobs over and over. Same flavor discussions. Same everything. Feels like the Twilight Zone. Bring up a new company and there's crickets. Bring up MBV and the whole place goes nuts.

For those that don't know, I also post semi-often on Calivapers ejuice discussion forum. Threads aren't nearly as numerous as here and you don't have to live in CA to participate (duh) but the focus is more geared to the top-shelf crowd and discussion on smaller, batch-driven manufacturers. Hope to see a few of you guys pop over to say hi or participate. It's a bit more mellow with fewer inane questions.

We'd love to have you

Haha, too funny! I don't have to bother hiding mine. I have so much I forget what I have, so when I go thru my box it's always like, oh hey I didn't know I had that! LOL!:D

Trying to catch up on all the action here -- man, you guys were busy last night! That's one of the bad things about being in Michigan, even if I stay up til midnight, it's only 9 o'clock in California when many of you guys just get going. (The OTHER bad things about Michigan are too numerous to mention, starting with the fact that it SNOWED here Monday and we broke the all time record for highest snowfall EVERRRRRRR.)

Working on my new TPR juices and loving them today. Something weird is up with my tongue tho so I'm going to have to go slow -- it happens sometimes when I am testing so many different flavors.

Anyone know of some good holiday weekend sales??

Mine has screws. What I meant about the holes, are they are in the post where the screws are. You just thread the leads through the holes and screw it down. I just find that a lot easier than having to wrap the lead around the screw. And I actually have the igo-w4. Not sure if the plain igo-w has the holes in the posts or not.

Wow so mine might have holes and screws? I will have to check it out later. it is down in the car

While I am slightly turned off by the name AltCig, I really like the sounds of horchata and gingerbread creme brulee. Added to my want list.

Yeah-isn't that funny, I have been ignoring them for months based on that name. Sounds like a very old fashioned company or a medical company

I agree with you about certain sweeteners not working for me. I wish I knew what the ingredient was so I could ask a vendor beforehand and save myself the trouble OR request they make a blend without the sweetener so I could add my own.

This has been a quandry of mine for months. I can not take Deadly Sin or CLS and most recently Sir Tasty. Dying to know the actual name of the ingredient I want to avoid. Em you seem so capable PLEASE find out

Its always nice to be appreciated:) Yes I'm a love me or hate me kinda guy, lmao. No in betweens. But you're right, as natural as it comes to me, I wasnt tryin to be a d... just tryin to take up for the ladies:)

Jonathan I think you just have what we call "poor delivery" LOL. I do too sometimes. I always mean well, never malicious - but no filter between brain and mouth. I just say...stuff. Oops. Haha

April moon was the first vape I said wow I think I'm gonna like this vaping thing. That's before I knew about steeping too so it's FOOB

Yessss mine too! April Moon was my first juice love. I need a new bottle.

My fun morning commute: Daughters school bus ended up in the ditch (almost rolled) everyone was ok....crazy weather!
View attachment 327085View attachment 327086 Truck was a little further on....

Well that would give me a heart attack! My daughter is in a private school therefore no bus. So I take her. I'm kind of glad I do when things like this happen!
Believe it or not, this is filtered me:cool: If i didnt filter, things might get a lot funnier for those who like me, but those who dont would b complaining on me to mods the way sweetab did, only constantly. Some people are cool, can take a joke. Others not so much, lol. I know which camp most of you are in lol.
Edit, just got on pc and saw pics, Jeez angi, glad they are ok!

Meh. It's somewhat of a deal. 18 bottles @ $22 per 30ml. = $396.00

But not enough discount to pull the trigger. I believe this is the box they gave away to a bunch of people last month. Or am I mistaken?
Not mistaken, I put in for that contest:) The only two that sound good in the whole box are thumper and that raspberry tea flavor from blueprint. So tired of custard this, custard that, bein everyones flagship flavor. Seems to be that if a gourmet company is really good, everyone raves about their tobaccos the most...

Jonathon,
which reo are you speaking of? I assume you are talking about RBAs but when I think Reo I think of MODS not RBA.
I was. When you use a reo, the mod holds the juice inside, not the tank. The coil is never inside/wicking directly from bottle, it has to be squeezed to bring more juice up when dry. So on a reo, you only ever use atties, not tanks. I have a bunch of tanks that I dont hardly use now because of reo, I waste a lot less liquid and dont waste all the time rebuilding like I did on genesis style tanks.

What flavor juice did you choose as your prize, Kathi17?

Sorry I didn't answer this sooner, Nanny, but I'm always way behind on this thread!

I got Kringle's Kurse, and it's quite good. I got it partly because I like peppermint, and partly so I can add it to chocolate and coffee juices that don't have much flavor.

Huh? Explain this Jonathan. Or should I check out a YouTube? I'm not a big RDA/RBA guy. I'm not mechanically inclined whatsoever and I have no patience for rebuilding and whatnot. What's this all about? INQUIRING MINDS NEED TO KNOW! heh

I feel the same way about the flavors I tried from Deej, just meh.
Not what one wants to here when a juice order is en route.

My recommendation would be to find another vendor. I ordered bout ten different flavors and the only one that was good was desert ship, very similar to nostalgia by clever. The rest were just meh for me

So nobody with a good idea for a cheap summer friendly device?

I wish I knew of one, we go kayaking, and I love swimming. I was looking at that LVT waterproof one, but apparently it isn't really waterproof. (Someone on another thread I'm on did an experiment with his, and it leaks and dies).
