Well, I did it again this morning. I cannot stop spending money on vaping stuff. In the last month alone I have bought an SX mini, a Dark Horse rda, a HOBO RDA, more juice than I can try, and god knows what else. I should be content right?

NOPE! This morning I purchased my first ever mech mod, because I've been worrying about the vapacolypse and I want something that I can use while killing zombies and paying taxes.

So I purchased the Beacon from Beyond Vapes (I've wanted it for a long time) ok not bad tho right? $65 isn't terrible. Well, on checkout I threw in the Vulcan RDA because I liked the way it looked on Suck My Mods review of the beacon. Next thing I know I just spent $114.

What is wrong with me? I'm going to head over to the woman's handbag forums to make myself feel a little better, I know they spend without care over at that place.

Now I gotta wait for this stuff to come in, and I've got like 4 packages already in transit to my apartment.

I need help, please don't encourage me!

BTW.. what do you guys think of Tugboat V2 RDA? I kinda want it!!

LOL, welcome to the club. I finally stopped when my storage "toolbox" was full of mods, batteries, toppers, juices, and "extras". Took about a year to collect about 100 mods, 40-50 toppers, and enough juice for well over a year. Luckily, I've sold a few so I can add a few more here and there, but I'm in no hurry. Eventually, the light bulb will go off and you'll realized you have enough, but until then...have fun!!

I have a policy that seems to work for me...
If I want something I have to wait for 2 paychecks out, in that time I re-inventory what I've got and research what I want. If I have something at my current disposal that does the same thing then I don't need what I wanted. My seal the deal factor is 4 things must line up with what I got (RBA counts for one, 510 connector is another so in reality its only 2), obviously if the item is better then anything I've got (doubtful, only had 1 instance of that thus far) then I'll buy it.

The only time this rule isn't followed is when its a dire necessity, my box mod broke and needed to replace it on the go this obviously is an emergency and had to fork out the change.

Haha. Well, you'll have a stash place for mods, etc. if you get weak there. Postponing gratification makes me feel more in control and has saved me a lot of money. Especially on hardware. I just bought an istick 50 because it's an incredible deal. It's my first mod purchase in over two years. $50. It's easy not to buy when finances don't allow.
