Just wanted to get my introduction out of the way so I could post and whatnot. ;)

A little about me:
Been smoking analogs for about 20+ years now and like many others, have felt the hit from the tobacco taxes. It's just a habit I'm no longer willing to support. I'm 35 now and thought it was time to kick the nasty habit, or at least ween away from analogs. I'm hoping to replace them completely, but I'm keeping an open mind about the whole thing and have been reading my .... off about e-cigs and stuff for the past few weeks or so.

My wife and mother have decided to give it a try with me and we're hoping to support each other through this transition. My wife and I smoke about a pack to a pack and a half a day of analogs. My mom though — oh boy. She smokes with my father and they both spend about $600 a month on analogs! So I sat down with her and introduced her to the awesomeness that are e-cigs. She was pretty blown away. I told her that since she's a grandmother now (my sister's kid, not mine :D), that she really should consider cutting back on the death sticks.


So I just ordered myself a huge package from Vapo4Life which included:

  1. 1 Ultimate Ultimatum Auto Kit
  2. 1 Pack of Premium Menthol Lovers Sampler Cartomizers
  3. 1 PCC Kit
  4. 1 Shorty Value Kit
Pretty hefty order. 8-o But hey, if it all works out, I can look back at the 20 years of smoking and laugh about it. Well not really, but you get what I mean. :D

Here's to a new year of hopefully healthier vapin!



Almost forgot.

For some reason, my order was missing the Kamels flavored cartomizers I added and it didn't include my 10% or 15% discount when I checked out. So I ended up paying full-price. D'oh! Too late to edit my order as well. Boy, my wife is gonna give me an earful when she gets home, lol. I hear the V4L guys are awesome when it comes to customer satisfaction, so I hope they can pick up the small error.

Welcome!!! Don't tell your wife...this is JUST the beginning, lol.

Best wishes! You all are doing a good thing.

Soooo true! Starts off small but the obsession grows!

Need more atomizers.
Need more liquid.
Need filler and carts.
Need batteries.
Hmm wonder if 901's and 801's work better than 510's? Buy all 3.
Need longer battery life..buy a mod..(ooooh shineys).....then buy more mods.
I can make my own liquid...buy all the stuff to make your own.
And it goes on and on and on.

Even with all that, still cheaper and better than smoking. :D

Holy crap you guys are fast! ROFL! :lol:

I actually have myself, my wife, mother on the vaping train now. Since my father is stubborn (to put it lightly), hopefully he'll see my mom vaping and become curious enough to try. I actually have my sister's boyfriend's interest really piqued about e-cigs. He wanted me to come around when my order comes in and show it to him. Since he's a father now as well, I told him it's as good a time as any to start vaping. But we all know how diaper duty makes you want to rush out and get a smoke in afterwards, lol. OMG, the smell.

I figure at the rate I'm spending for analogs, it would be much cheaper in the long run anyways. So you're right there, Ast_Isis. :D I've had some expensive hobbies that I don't really support anymore, so this whole e-cig thing for me is pretty awesome. I'm practically giddy with anticipation. I have the rest of my analogs sitting here to last me until my package arrives, so here's to hoping! I can just hear it now...

"WTF?! I thought we were using e-cigs so we don't spend more money on analogs!" -cue teacher "wa wa waaw" sound from Charlie Brown.

This no-smoking law in some areas of California is getting really, really irritating. Not only do you have to smoke outside, but you have to stand at least 20 feet away form the building. Yes, there's signs all over the place now. So I figure with all of the advantages that come with vaping, they can all kiss my ... when I come out of a restaurant after eating a fat steak, lol.


As for the order, I sent an email to them as soon as I recieved the errenous order confirmation. Here's to hoping the catch it in time. :)


Thanks for the warm welcome guys! I feel all warm and fuzzy. :D

Congratulations on your first order!

I sincerly hope everything works out for you and your family!

Don't ever hesitate to post here for questions if you can't find them using the search feature. There is sooooooo much useful information here it's almost scary :D

Once you decide you are sticking to it. There's a nasty bug that bites you on the bum and the next thing you know you have flavors coming out of your ears. :p
