Same thought about the waste, even though I only have 5 left.
And after browsing sites I can see a possible juice buying spree happening
Awesome! That was one of my biggest worries as I do drink ( my pops doesn't) And I know soon as I have a beer or a shot I crave a smoke.
Other biggest worry is dropping a deuce haha sorry to be so blunt about it but an analog just helped nature along in the morning or night at home when I was smoking inside at home
The one time I had a slip I went to a concert here in Houston (Buckcherry) and I took some low mg juice with me I wound up smoking. That's why my counter is so low but for those nights now I have some 18mg tobacco extract juice, I keep it for special occasions and just use my 6mg at home when having some brews and messing around on the internet. Has worked really well for me so far. That was one of my sticking points, since you know drinking and smoking goes hand in hand.
Hi and Welcome! As an ex smoker, my initial thought was to search for tobacco flavors but I personally grew out of them. Hope you enjoy the journey
Couple of points here.
!st, you will not find a good burning paper, burning leafs imitation flavor with vaping.
There are some really nice pipe and cigars one though, and the ones labeled tobacco are good, but not a cigarette flavor
2nd hitting all of the vape shops with tasting bars is a good way to find juices you like ... then you are better armed to hit the web sites.
3rd buying "sampler" packages from various web sites is the cheapest way to try a large variety.
4th pick up a bottle of juice with 24mg for those times when you need something a little stronger, like beer time.
5th enjoy your new hobby

Welcome to ECF
The paper towel joke flew over my head, unless its a juice joke
Also, yep I've still got the same pack of analogs since Saturday morning, they would of been long gone. So definitely going in the right direction! Appreciate the encouragement!
Nope not a juice joke, my paper towel consumption has doubled. (I do have a clumsy significant other that capes so that doesn't help.)
Welcome to the forum.
I agree with the answer above.
Do not get stuck in the idea like I did that I could find the perfect eliquid to match my old brand close enough.
I finally found a B&M close enough to home with exceptional customer service to really help me out.
I have been vaping on and off for quite a while with my worst enemy being myself looking for what was not out there.
I finally discovered a flavor the other day that hit all the wrong buttons and set me straight.
By wrong buttons it was not cigarette flavor, lol.
After trying it, I have only had 5 or 6 cigarettes out of the pack I had opened, unfortunately it was the first pack out of a new carton.

In regards to the finding the perfect match to your cigarettes...it's based too much on your idea of what it tastes like. I was fortunate enough of go to a B&M and the owner made me a juice that matched what I was looking for as I always felt all ejuice menthol was wrong...I know it sounds odd but I wanted tobacco with a hint of menthol not killer menthol from hell. So...
When you go to test juices...put the atty on YOUR fully charged battery if a vv/vw. Also take a little container of coffee beans to sniff to clean your palette. I always found that my taste buds were in overload mode by the time I leave stores.

Welcome to the forum Paintisnthere. I had a dilemma too when my first e-cig arrived in the mail. I had a half a carton of Merit 100's left. After a couple of days using the Ego kit, I vacuum sealed the cigs and put them in the freezer. After a couple of months, I just gave them to a guy at work. I was saving so much cash vaping, it didn't feel like I was loosing anything by not smoking the cigs.
Anyway, one of my favorite tobacco flavors (all day vape for a couple of years) is American Spirit from Freedom Smoke USA. It is available in menthol too. 18mg is probably a good level to start at.

My juices are 18mg atm from what was recommended as a pack a day full flavor menthol smoker, but I'm definitely going to try to ween myself off in the future.

Thanks for the welcome bud!
(1)Yeah I know I won't find a full on Marlboro Menthol replacement, just looking for something close to remind me of it, although I can already see myself wanting to try the other flavors, and possibly mentholating them if possible. (4) I'm vaping 18mg as the guy told me to start with that for my pack a day MM habit, but I will look into your suggestion of a higher nic% for drinking nights. I plan on trying lots of flavors at my local spot then buying online if cheaper, and thanks for the welcome!
Ah I gotcha
Yeah lucky, think I'll just look for a juice or two that tickles my fancy haha on a good taste, not looking for tobaco.
Yeah I know a perfect match won't happen, as it's only vaporizing and not burning paper/plant mat etc.
I'll def ask the owner for a suggestion or a personal mix recommendation if he can give one to me, and also bring my battery in as per your advice. Ty for the info!
Ty for the welcome Bozz, I only have 5 butts left so I'll probably smoke them on my transition to full vape, but I see how having that many could go from wanting to slowly wane off analogs, to fully getting rid of them. This pack I have the 5 from is from Saturday at work, and I was always a pack a day, so it's a definite good start!

Thanks a bunch!
feeling very welcome, as well even more excited about getting into vaping!Mothers milk is absolutely amazing... I just started vaping myself a couple months ago.
That's awesome your quitting with your pops. Both my parents (finally! My mom is trying to quit) are quitting. My brother. My husband and I. Though my husband and I are the only ones vaping. Quitting together will help cut down on the desire to smoke. Held accountable, plus your not triggering each other.
As for a good liquid. Try The Vape Mall. It is a website. They have very cheap liquids.
17ml-$5, 32ml-$7. And they have sample deals I always use now. $30 for five 32ml. And sample packs in bigger sizes as well.
I got my first batch this morning actually. And all of the ones we tried were good except the Vanilla Custard smells and tastes like egg nog. Which is fine, but it wasn't what I was looking for.

At vape mall you can also do custom e-liquids for the same price as premade. I like that and the prices, because I like strong flavors.
Love my local B&M's but vape mall is still cheaper and shipping is not bad.

It tastes as good as it smells? Me and my dad caught a whiff walking out and wished we bought some, and then I looked online and it has all 4.5 or 5 star reviews. He's gone until Friday and said he wanted to try it, if it as good as it smells and is reviewed, I'd love to buy a bottle and have a cartomizer? ready to go for him when he gets home (we both bought eGo 1100 mah Premium kits) So whatever our plastic liquid chambers are, I'd wanna buy 2 empties so me and him can try it out.
Welcome! i've heard great things about mother's milk but when I tried it in my local shop I didn't love it. might have been because I had tried a billion juices but I just wasn't diggin it
Congrats on family quitting with you as well
He was quitting so I didn't wanna smoke inside if he isn't, so I joined him. Also thank you so much for the site, nice cheap prices and thanks for the custard advice...sounds tasty but maybe not so in vapes haha. If i do try any I will let you know how they taste!- Status
