Help me, help me

My wife is gonna be giving me some looks when she sees the cc statement next month.
Actually, it won't be that bad, but I was thinking I should go thru all the invoices I've gotten with the orders, and see what they add up to so far, but, ahh, I don't wanna do that right now.

Check the card on-line. Might make you gasp for a second, but atlas you'll know where you stand in the face of 'the wife'. LOL

 

[Levitas]

I save all of my receipts from all orders... gonna tally it up on my one year and see if I really saved or the truth: spent a wee-too-much, lol!

 

[want to quit]

I think you spend way way more on e-cigs in your experimental phase to find the right unit, juice voltage etc. After that you should spend way less then on normal cigs.

It's a sickness I tell ya, a sickness I've gotten better over the past 2 years but I still sometimes..... And I pay the bills so...no flack!

Just remember dude, its easier to ask forgiveness than permission. And I'm sure you've slept on the couch once before...

 

[Liv2Ski]

Screw it man order more stuff. I know I sleep better on the couch anyway. You would have spent the money on smokes so all is good. That is what I tell my wife and I am sticking to it. 9 months and I have spent $4000 on vaping. Just about what I would have spent on smokes. Oh and if I did not buy another thing I could vape for at least 2.5 years.

i'm in over $150 but under $200 so far, but I have only been vaping for 3 weeks now. The supplies I have currently, I estimate to last me about 6 months (hopefully) except for maybe e-juice here and there. I guess we shall see. I base my estimate on how many cartomizers and cartridges I have gone threw in the last 3 weeks which come up to.

10 ml e-liquid
2- cartomizers (Still refilling these and there still going good)
2- cartridges
2- batteries

My cartomizers came pre-filled and so did all my cartridges I have just been re-filling them. When my stock up supplies get here - I will have

11- batteries
25- cartomizers
25 - cartridges
2- atomizers

40 ml of e-juice.

So we shall see how long they last.. I hope for 6 months besides getting some e-juice.

Just remind your wife that it's less expensive than the possible health care costs of smoking, and that you will likely be around longer and able to support your family by vaping rather than smoking!

 

[cskent]

If you think you're in deep.....


...you might as well order more stuff and make it worth your while.

 

[beenshot]

look at my avatar and you can see that I have an addiction as bad as smoking (collecting bottom feeders) but I could quit anytime (LOL) if Rob and Fono would quit building them.

actually, I didn't start vaping to save any money and have no intentions of keeping track of it. my goal was to quit smoking and so far I am 100% successful with that.
I am enjoying the ecig experience for now and when the time comes to leave it behind, I will sell off my mods and recover some of my cost. (or maybe not) lol

LOL...I wish that would last me 6 months...try more like 2 weeks if I'm lucky.

Buy your wife some flowers (not a big bunch just some happy flowers), then a little piece of costume jewellery, then maybe a meal at her favorite restaurant, then explain that you had to buy all the stuff because it was pretty and touched you on an emotional level.
Then listen to her, without interrupting, tell her of course you understand (you wont but hay!) and then ask her about shoes, that should do the trick.

 

[seanmc]

Tell her that you had a nightmare, that you were in the hospital, dying of lung cancer, then you woke up in tears with the thoughts of death and not being able to grow old together. Explain to her that every item you ordered, although costly...would be an extra month that you can cherish her and that there is no price tag on your love for her! Before you have this conversation with her...I suggest you order a Provari and a Darwin, to make sure the juice is worth the squeeze...haha! JK!

That is so wrong.

 

[Cil]

Oh, I forgot to mention, if the shoe thing doesn't work, tell her she's lost a bit of weight - keep that one in your locker just in case things aren't going well

 

[cookiebun]

Lol Good replies.
I've spent far too much as well.
Look on the bright side, we got a bunch of vaping goodies before they started slapping them with taxes.
You know that's going to happen eventually.

 

[cobaltblue]

This thread is starting to rival some of the funniest ones on ECF. You know, the ones that make you go


Thanks

 

[oplholik]

Lot of good answers everyone, good reading.

 

[cbabbman]

7 weeks in... and I've spent close to what I was spending in a year on analogs...

BUT, I have a load of stuff that will keep me vaping for about 6 months...lol
