I was looking for more not because of the FDA but for my diy juices. I am almost out. I am down to only 2mg of nic. and as soon as I get my pg and vg I'll be at 0 nic. Only if my devices vanish once the FDA makes known what they are going to do. Then I will worry, but for now, looking to do my diy juice. Thanks for the sites.

Just for the heck of it I checked the CVS Pharmacy web site. The Glycerin USP is out of stock there. I usually buy my VG from the local CVS store and don't bother with online.

CVS Glycerin USP (VG) comes in sealed 6 oz bottles (177 ml). Online price is $5.49 per bottle but last month I bought quite a few at the store a mile away at $10.00 for two bottles. This is great VG with a lot number and expiration date somewhere in the year 2017. Once a USP certified, sealed container is opened it is exposed to moisture from the atmosphere and the USP grade is compromised. Once a USP sealed bottle is opened the expiration date will no longer be sometime in 2017 but somewhere 12-18 months from now. That's another reason why I like VG in 6 oz, expiration dated bottles.

Hi jimmyh,
Try Amazon.com
I bought Frogys at 99.7 and 99.9 pure, and was happy with it.

I have FroggysFog VG and Essential Depot's too, I like them both a lot. Froggy's is more expensive than Essential Depot's, I've heard they get it from P&G, which is very good VG and might be why it's more expensive .. or maybe they just like to charge more LOL, not sure which answer is correct :)

Yzer,

I am just wondering the general location (aisle/department) the cvs vg is located in. I've looked and cant find it. I'd rather not talk to the pharmacy if i can help it, they're always super busy at my local store.
Usually skin care or sometimes cosmetics. Ask the pharmacist if not there. It's in little clear plastic bottle with a CVS blue label.

HI stashbldr,
You always make me happy :laugh: Thanks
I used up the Frogys already and am on Essential Depot as we speak. I can't tell any difference? I have always bought the PG and VG when I order something at Amazon. I wish you were having better luck with the clearomizers. I have been lucky so far and enjoy the differences between the many that Im rotateing between.

I can barely tell the difference between them either LOL, I even put some of each one on my finger and LICKED it .. they tasted almost the same except the Froggy's was a tiny bit sweeter.

I am using the Kanger T3's and I like them a lot, although I wasnt crazy about them at first, once I stuck with it for more than 10 mins I fell in love. In fact I like them so much I'm even getting ready to start rebuilding them myself .. woohoo .. just waiting for my wicking to arrive :)

My local Wallys only seems to get them (VG) in a few at a time...I bought the last three and they have been out for two weeks now.
Looked for VG at Walgreens, Rite Aid and CVS in a thirty mile radius...none. (????)
So there might be something going on....
But the nice CVS pharmacist lady gave me 4 Syringes free when I told her what I wanted the VG for.
