How do you keep track of what flavor is in each carto/clearo?

So I've got five batteries right now and am vaping five flavors at any one time - still finding what I like. Anyway I'm having a hard time remembering what flavor is in what carto. I don't want to make this into "work", like create a database or anything, so just wondering, what do you guys and gals do to keep track of what flavors you have in which cartos/clearos?

When I didn't have a lot of different flavors I used small colored rubber bands to match up the bottles with the cartos. Now I make labels for the cartos, clearos, etc. They hold up well and can be easily removed. I use white print on clear background as it shows up on both the black and the stainless cartos and on the clear ones.

I use the condoms that come with the cartomizers and write on them with a fine point sharpie. When finished, just rub the marker off with your finger. I also once used Smokless Image colored tips, but then you need to write down what color matches each flavor.

I keep spreadsheets open all the time... making a little list was easiest for me.... Also, I try to keep the bottles lined up in one corner, and the clearos lined up in the same order. I have 5 going at once as well, and just got a big shipment of samples, like 13 flavors from vape Dudes... Gotta figure out where to start, and what clearos to clean out. :)

Wow, you all are seriously organized! I just sniff. However, mine are not really similar. I have cappuccino, menthol, chai, and one berry. Easy to tell apart with the sniff test.

Just wait. It's only been 3 months for me and already my collection of flavors & nicotine levels is growing. In the beginning, it was simple because my choices were limited but soon I wanted to sample new flavors and that list has grown. Not only the flavors but nic levels. Later in your vaping journey, for example, you may have to adjust your menthol from 18mg to 12mg. You may find that 18mg is too much for all day so you get menthol 12mg for afternoon use or 6 mg before bedtime. You will need to distinguish which cart or clearo has the lower or higher level which can't be determined by smell. Hence, one of the reasons for labeling. Just my :2c:

5mths in..i must admit some days I think back how easier it was just to grab a packet of cigs and lighter...looking at the big picture, Ive learnt the more organized you can be is the key...I do think being tempted by to many flavours in one day causes me to get off track I end up with stuff everywhere:facepalm:so im starting to teach myself to only have 3 clearos 3 flavours per day...I found little letter stickers work great using the first letter of name of juice...helps me remember...its all in the learning what works for you...

Since I really only have 3 flavs going at any given time, and I use X2 and clearos, I just go with the colored clearos or the colored mouth pieces they sell. Clear clearo with blue mouth piece is my tobacco (usually only vape after a meal and while having a drink) Clear clearo with black mouth piece is my go to flav cotton candy. And the red clearo is my bubblegum (tastes more like strawberry bannana but I like it)
I also have a nano with a menthol that I haven't decided if I like and a carto filled with chocolate cheesecake for emergencies with my 78.

Right now I have four flavors. The 555 I keep putting juice in the old 555 cartos. For the Dessert Joes I put them in the old Dessert Joe cartos. For the Heavenly tobacco I put them in the Ry4 cartos. The clove I put in the blank cartos.
Now for the Clearos. The 555 is in the black clearo, the Dessert joe in the clear clearo, and the Heavenly tobacco in the blue clearo. The clove stays in the carto because the clove etched the red clearo. (threw the red clearo away)

All my samples I had goes it the nanos. One at a time.
