How did you first hear about e-cigs?

[jennlsnoopy]

I was just curious how people found out about PVs since so many people don't know about them yet.

My husband first saw one when he was at a work meeting and a guy showed his to my husband. He told me about it and we forgot about them for months. Then we ran across a kiosk at our local mall and tried it and a couple days later purchased our first one. Of course I don't buy at the mall anymore (too expensive) but if it wasn't for that kiosk I might not be using one now.

A colleague of my fiancée knew someone with one she nagged me for a bit (non smoker) about it i agreed to try one with the purpose of saying "see it's ***** doesn't work you owe me x amount of money " found this forum and thought ooh maybe it will work had one just over24 hrs can't believe how well it's worked only 3 analogues in that time instead of 20-30

I first heard it on the alex jones radio show. I went to the web site and bought a disposable gamucci loved it , ordered a 901 and never smoked again.

My son got one (from where I don't know) so he could "smoke" in his neighborhood bar. That got me interested and being a nerd, I started to search for info on the internet and soon ordered a 510. He saw mine and how it performed compared to his and now is the proud new owner of a 510.

I was on the internet trying to find out where I could buy cigarettes cheaper and I found electronic cigarettes and started reading. Then my husband took over and found out he could buy me one at Pilot Truck Stop and he bought it for me.

A guy at work had one, he plays in local bands. He said he got one due to working in nonsmoking bars saw it at the reservation. I figured hey why not nothing else has worked for me, I figured i'd give it a try. I told myself if it doesn't work to help me quit completely i'll use it in nonsmoking areas winter will be here before you know it.It helped me cut back but did not keep me from lighting up. It was a cheap brand so I did some research looking for a better brand of ecigarette and found this forum now I am a proud owner of a Joye 510, and analog free for over 3 months!

I tried some guy's 510 at a party and then forgot about it for a year or so. Then all of a sudden I decided I wanted one too, just for fun. But it was sooooo good I quit smoking!

A friend visiting from Germany told me about them. Ordered one, haven't had an analog since. Then I found this place and just ordered a Chuck yesterday.

Edit: BTW, I smoked for 43 years, the last several years, I smoked Captain Black Little Cigars.

Wife saw one of the photos of Leonardo DiCaprio with a SmokeStick (RN4081) and asked me to do a web search. Found the SmokeStick, ordered a couple sets, totally quit analogs the day they arrived, been with SmokeStick (Rn4081s) ever since. Just ordered the Dragon and Phoenix (M401) kits from JD and we're now awaiting their arrival.

My brother read about them online somewhere and sent me a link. I thought it was the coolest thing ever and started checking out all the companies selling them. NJoy seemed the most established at the time, so I ordered from them. Funny thing is I didn't find it satisfying at all when I got it, but my brother tried it and loved it. He ordered one for himself and quit analogs the day he got his (he's since quit vaping too).

Jump forward a few months and I found this forum, read lots, got myself a different e-cig and now I'm also analog-free.

a movie website

had them in the banner ads

then I looked them up and ordered my joye 510 2 days ago

Was on an airplane and the guy next to me pulled one out! I had to know what it was. He pulled a second one out and let me try it. He was a seller. I bought it immediately!

 

[Vapor-Coach]

I was on a long flight and the guy next to me pulled one out. I had to know what it was. He had a second one and let me try it. Turns out he was a seller. I bought one on the spot!

Without violating forum rules, I'll just say I had heard about "vaping" becoming trendy in California and was looking online for a vaporizer. I got caught up reading about e-cigs and wanted to try one but didn't want to gamble. I ended up seeing them at a mall kiosk, took a couple hits off of a demo and bought one. I found this forum after constantly having problems with it and still have a lot to learn.

I fell victim to a BLU add. I stumbled across it when looking for cheap online cigs. I got it and was disappointed, but of late have come around to the idea, and ordered from HC, and shall hope to quit cigs and vape once again.

 

[Posideon]

Don't remember where I originally heard of them but myself and a co-worker started talking about them one day. I went and looked 'em up found this forum and voila. I now have a 510 and he has a (402?) not sure exactly what he's got. We are both now happy vapers. I haven't had a single analogue in about a month. Last analog was opening my 510 package

I'm 56; at a family get together a buncha the kids (mine, my sis's, etc.) were talking and having a good time and I was going by when one of them started talking about an e-cig he saw in a bar and it was cool. I listened with the intensity of a prisoner in solitary waiting for taps on a pipe... anyhow; when I got home I googled my brains out and found Pilot was selling em. A month later I had a 510 and now am free after 38 long fricking years of smoking.

I saw a BLU ad on a torrent client, watched some related youtube videos, including ritalee and igetcha69's reviews of the 510, and found this place. I saw some posts from people who smoked 4 packs of luckys a day for 50 years and quit using a 510, and figured that was the one to get, so I ordered a 510 + PCC. That was 2 months ago and I haven't smoked an analog since a few days after the 510 came.

oh this thread again.. he he he...

Leaford , his videos convinced me to get a smoke51 , not bad , not great... moved up to a 901 shortly after that... it was all downhill from there.
