I haven't bought a bottle of pre-made juice in months. I can't justify spending $20 for 30 ml of pre-made. fact I have a bottle of mother's milk that been sitting forever and it's darken soo much LOL
a couple of 30 ml bottles a few months ago and ending up paying them forward. I am enjoying my diy to much to even think about buying premade.
A few months. I'm a DIYer. Last time it was a bottle of Tribeca to use as control sample for my Tribeclone batch. 
I'm a cheapskate and just kills me to pay the equivalent of $8 USD for 10ml of Manchou horsepiss.
::Edit::
Correction, sorry. A month ago I got some blends that I specially like from Naturally-Extracted-Tobacco to serve as controls for my own pipe tobacco extractions. My judging panel (the missus and a coupla vaping buddies) said they liked my Balkan and my Black Cavendish better and my Stanwell Melange has turned a real revelation. Just ordered some more tins from Cup O Joes to smoke and extract. Must do at least half a liter of it.

horsepiss?
I think I know that horse and it's a Clydesdale!
Being another cheapskate, that horse got me to start making my own beer 14 or so years ago.Back in February I bought an Alice in Vaporland sampler to see what the hoopla was about. The White Rabbit was nice...the rest?..eh..not for me.

99.99% of the pre-made I bought sucked...with the exception of a couple of Indigo's tobaccos.
I haven't bought pre-made since March, so it is just six months for me, I do still have four or so vendor juices in my stash that I occasionally vape, and a few of them I will re-order when I deplete what I have left.
Today I opened a 10ml sampler of Flue Cured Virginia that Naturally-Extracted-Tobacco.com sent me with one order or other. It's terrific but I think I can cook some as good or better with a bit of G.L. Pease Union Square Virginia flake that I have at the bottom of an old tin. Should be ready in about a month if I get on to it on Sunday.
Bought some yesterday but that should be the end of my buying for the next year or more unless i need a flavor concentrate. A lil over two months ago I quit smoking and started vaping. Last week I figured out that I spent around $2K on vaping. About half of that was on juices. Maybe around $6-700 on batts, mods, tanks and what not and the rest on getting everything I need for DIY. Yet now i am set up. Pleanty of batts, mods, tanks, drippers and everything I can need to make tons of juice so I dont forsee spending anymore after this. If I dont spend anymore then come the end of january I should be making a profit from the money I saved from not buying cigs anymore
It's been somewhere around 2 1/2 to 3 years since I bought any premixed juice. It costs me between $1.50 and $3 to mix my own 30 ml bottle, depending upon the flavoring I use. I just can't see paying ~ $15 for premixed.
Started vaping 2 months ago. Never bought a bottle of premade juice. I got a couple of 10ml bottles free with my starter kit, and they were GROSS. Ended up throwing them out.

About a Year for me thanks to the likes of Danny , Hoosier and others on ECF.
Once I got a few working liquids I could swap around, I've been good to go.
Been enjoying a basic Creamy Hazelnut on an RDA for the past 2 days.
Creamy Hazelnut, I think I'll give it a try as well.
BTW
I've only been vaping my own crap, its been over a Year.

I bought a S Load of Juice on Discount Fathers Day Weekend still using it up[plus I aready had some DIY Tobacco on Hand] In a month or 2 I will DIY only as I recently bought 1 1/2 litres of 100mg Nicotine solution at a great price [Well the 1/2 litre of VapersTek cost double what the 1 litre of Nicotine solution from Heartland cost] The Vapers Tek better be the Bee's Knees or I'll never order again. Also Stocked up on Flavor Concentrates from Bull City Vapor for the Winter months.
Had to check my records. January 1 was apparently the last time I ordered premixed liquid. Can't believe it's been that long...
I tried about 10 popular flavors when they were on sale to see if I like them better than my DIY
Pluid, Agent Orange and Grandmaster I finished, the others I sold on the classies.
I like mine better than most and Murdock's about as much as mine but not for 63¢/ml more (on sale no less).
Pro juices just take time away from vaping my DIY
EDIT - in other words the last I bought was some Nicoticket (on sale) in June and sold it last week in ECF classies.

.....My 2014 new years resolution was to NEVER buy store bought juice again. No reason whatsoever to break this resolution.
