How much are you spending?

[JrdUK]

Smoking tobacco I spend roughly £10 a week for liquorish papers, tips and bacci.

It looks like I will be spending alot more on the ecigs, I have bought some 36mg liquid but I am not sure how long this will last me or if I should be diluting it?

So just curious roughly how much did you spend when you smoked compared to when you vapored?

I was smoking about £12 per day, so e-cigs will eventually be cheaper, when I stop trying to find the ideal....
Plus I have lungs that breathe now.

That's been my problem - I've spent many hundreds of pounds in the last 7 months. I don't resent it, except I still want a 901 that performs like my Stick

I couldn't possibly be organised enough to budget 8-o

I used to get duty free baccy , so I only smoked around £25 per month. vaping for me is more expensive ( only just ) not that is has to be , just i like new toys

running cost's all depend on what device you have too, e-cig batteries aren't cheap so I'll always say get a mod , an SD or JS or GG type device. Running costs are then significantly reduced.

cost into that a max of 2 atomizers a month , 2 new generic batts and 50ml of liquid it's alot less than smoking real cigs , especially if you pay UK prices

Since starting on e-cigs in January, I've spent 100s if not 1000s but have worked out it's about the same as I would've spent on cigs during the first few months (having been a 40-60 a day smoker).

But, I bought a huge amount of hardware and a ton of liquids. If I were to stop buying now, I figure I'd still have spent less in a year than on cigs. I think one has to try to work it out over a long period so as to factor in the initial outlay and then the expenditure on extra parts as time goes by.

Also, some of us might buy e-cigs or liquids that we end up not liking or we change our minds a few weeks or months later - like I've done. I spent quite a bit on the EVO/Pilot and have now put it away and am no longer using it as I've found I prefer the penstyle and 901 after all. I also find I seem to easily bore of liquids and want a change from time to time - yet we never did that with cigs!

Every time I go buy something else, I just say to myself "well, I'd have spent the same or less on cigs!"

I guess its just the initial cost buying me and GF spare parts etc plus liquids.

I am also looking at getting one of those charger cases they look handy esp since I will be at work and no where to charge if it goes dead.

What I meant to say but didn't properly phrase is that what I've bought so far would last me at least a year if not more, without having to buy more. So, in the long run, the "initial" outlay for me is one that will last me a very long time (as long as I don't keep buying new flavours or even new types of e-cigs, which I keep seeming to do! )

 

[JrdUK]

Yea its tempting to try all the flavours!

I just ordered my self:

2 extra manual batterys for the 510
a pack of 5 atomizers
and a PCC (really excited about that a nice case to keep stuff in plus it charges it!!)
and another bottle of the m/boro flavour

Wish I had shopped around some more since I just got 5 30ml high strength stuff various flavours for £40 including P+P from RD.

It will take a longer time shipping but I'm ok with that I got 5 bottles for the price of 2!

Guess I will probably order the actual components from a UK supplier but for the juice that I don't need ASAP I figure i will get from china from now on to save the pennys.

I never really spent that much on bacci since it was duty free, but I'm excited for my 510 hoping it comes tomorrow!

I've spent loads on different hardware and juices, so it'll be a while before it pays for itself.

That being said I've now got the devices I want. GG for home, Janty Stick for work and 510 for out and about, so it'll only be spares and liquid from now on.

 

[Caesarea]

I can't criticise anyone for enjoying the products. I get a lot of fun out of new juice or a new e-cig!!

Was spending £30-£40 a month on tobacco. Have spent on average £70 a month on e-cigs but! I have a stash of atomizers and batteries and 4 bottles of liquid and cleaner lungs. I'm at the point where I'm going to be spending less on e-cigs than I was smoking, at least till my 6 attys die. I actually enjoy it far more than I ever did smoking so it's worth more in my opinion.
