How much do you spend on vaping per month?

[Semiretired]

I spend about (maybe less) than $20 a month. It took me a little bit of learning to get to this stage, but I am enjoying the extra money to do extra things in life now... I only make purchases once every few months and do not read about every new thing that is hitting the market, but I do keep up with the market. To date I have vaped through every thing that I have bought until they wore out...

I've been rockin 1 ego twist since I started vaping 3 months ago. I've spent more on juices than anything, but since I know what I like now I spend about $40 a month for juices. Sometimes I'll spend a lil more if I want to try a new juice. I've used this time to research what I want so I don't end up over spending if I'm not satisfied.

So the game plan is this:

I will be spending about $225-$250 in the next week or two when I order a provari.

Next month I will buy a mechanical mod (probably titan w/nimbus) so that's going to be another $225.

After that I'm done buying mods. If I get what I consider to be the best I won't have to haggle with lesser quality items and worry about them breaking on me making me have to spend more.

These two months will be tight but after that its only maintenance fees. Wicks, wires, juices, etc...I've done my research to make this the most enjoyable experience for me. I'll be back in the green soon enough....hopefully...

I spent more the first few months for sure, but these days I vape for about $20 a month including hardware. That's using mainly a couple of inexpensive mechanical mods with RBA's and I DIY my zero nic juice.

About $20-$40 a month. Just for ce4 clearomizers or to get a mini nova tank. And liquids

 

[blurcase]

Me about $20 average, but can spike whenever the hands are itchy to try new mods, lol.

I'm just starting out so I don't know but I don't imagine it will be too much once I finish getting set up. I have an ego-t and an evic. I plan on getting one or two more ego style batteries. I have several different style of clearos, plan on buying several more so I can keep my favorite juices in (once I find a few more favorites). After that it will just be keeping stocked in juice and the occasional battery. I can't see the whole thing costing me more than $100/mo at that point but who knows. Either way, it's way cheaper than buying dip and/or analogues.

Holy crap! I posted this before I went to work only to come back and find a lot of great posts.. I guess if it pans out for me as good as most of ya'll I'll be in good shape.. Right now I'm spending around $270 a month on the nasty stuff so if I can keep it around that I'll be more then happy if it gets me off analogs.

I'm only 1 month in, but at about $500. But once all of my vape mail comes in, between me and my wife (who has also spent about $60), we'll have:

- 10 standard Ego batteries, 650mah-900mah
- 15 Evods
- 4 Protanks
- 4 mysterious Smoktech pyrex BCCS that keep having the ship date pushed back
- 20 backup Evod/Protank heads
- a bunch of top coil clearos that broke and got thrown away
- about 40 bottles of juice

I don't plan to spend anything this month, and next month maybe only $50-60 on another juice order. IF (capital I, capital F) I can hold to that plan, I should reach my break-even point with what I'd have spent on cigs and will reward myself by turning vaping back into a losing proposition money wise - I'm looking at 4 Innokin iTaste 3.0 VW setups because I want to skip VV and go straight to VW, but in the meantime I'm hoping that even if one or two of my regular Egos die I'll have enough spares to power through it, but who knows what the 2-3 months of self-restraint when it comes to shopping on the internets will bring...maybe a couple Provaris...

I'm spending about $50 a month now after a decent sized outlay the first month which ran about $1,000 (3 Reos mods, 3 rebuildable atomizers, two chargers, spare batteries, spare mod parts, wire, wicking material, various tools, etc.). I think I am dead even now on expenses after 4.5 months of vaping compared to what I would have spent on analogs. I should be in the black by about $1,500 after one full year. I couldn't be more pleased.

 

[DNME]

I spent so much this month actually..
Started out with a Provary with a Z-Atty-Pro...


Then I figured that it wasn't that great so I picked up a protank as well.
Then, I picked up a QZI Megatron and a Poldiac with the Did.

And my last purchase was the Nimbus. But this is probably the end of my buying spree.

 

[UntamedRose]

Im 3 years into vaping now.........spending is horrible at first so much new! (do the math is not as bad or damn close to your spending habit with smoking though...its just not nickles and dimed)
It gets SIGNIFICANTLY better as time passes. You figure out what works for you, find a mod that fits your hand... maybe pick up DIY and ya habit could be less then 30 a month if you spend anything at all.

Was about a year or so before it all clicked...heck I Just bought a new mod simply b/c it had been a year since I had bought anything new...felt like the time lol

 

[Fyreffect]

I'm in it for the savings, so I've settled on a few ce5 clearomizers with replaceable atomizers. You can buy packs of spare atomizers so you dont find yourself replacing the whole tank, just a couple bucks each for the atomizer and you're good to go for another week or two at least. If you're adventurous and always want to explore new setups and new flavors, it will remain a fairly expensive habit, more of a hobby really.

I have 3 clearomizers and 3 flavors that I'm sticking with, with a pack of spare atomizers that will keep me going the whole year. I have three 1100mah batteries, two I regularly rotate and one spare just in case. Once the initial investment was made, the only money I spend is on refills for juice and the occasional atomizer replacement at a couple dollars a pop. I'll be spending maybe $15-20 a month until I need to replace a battery. For reference it takes me about 3 days to go through a 1.6ml tank.

 

[Marjolein]

Lol I don't even want to know how much I spent the first 2 months of vaping. I'm getting so greedy, want to try everything. Hope it will settle down a bit now I got most of my diy stuff in

 

[Bullet1231]

This sure is expensive. I'm already at 300 and already thinking of a new mod :-/

 

[Chelley]

We spent a lot the first month. Me and hubby both got Ego starter kits then the next week got Spinners. Both have 5 evods and 1 protank. Then We bought a lot of juice also trying to find what we like. The last thing we got was 2 evics and haven't spent anything in about 2 weeks. Were trying to use up some of the juices we bought. So far I'm really liking Caramel Vanilla Cap and Mamas apple pie from spring vapor and Banana cream pie from MTB. I'm thining now that we really are liking what were using now we should start saving a lot.

 

[minigoat]

For me the initial expense was considerable, but it was still less then analogs.

* I do mostly DIY juice
* Found a couple mods where my expense was just new batteries when they wore out
* Stocked up on cartomizers/atomizers (shopped bulk sales)

Just recently I decided that I could upgrade to a VV mod, and have purchased rebuildable atomizers. Aside from the initial expense I have saved a ton of money over the last two years.

I did hit a snag in my plans yesterday… Decided I would reward myself and finally get some Bobas from Alien Visions which arrived yesterday. I really REALLY like it, alot. Now I am thinking I should try some of the other flavors to. I'm screwed (but not smoking)

 

[geeve]

Considering I am a cheap ... LOL, I will break even on Aug. 13 from my start up cost. If I stick to my budget, all I will need every month is new heads for my iClears and my Kanger and maybe some juice. Looking at around $25 - $30 a month. alot better than the $100+ on analogs, cold medicine and Dr. visits. Plus if a battery dies I can tack an extra $30-$40 on the month and still be under what I was spending

Geeve

 

[Moogle]

I've spent approximately 800$ in a little over 4 months but that's for a lot of gear and enough PG/VG/flavor to last about 9 months and enough nicotine to last about 3 years. I don't plan on spending much for the rest of the year. Maybe some more flavor and a RBA dipper for Christmas! I expect to spend about 40-50$ a month tops next year including a new mod, another Kick and more NIC/PG/VG for Vapeageddon.

 

[Comino]

I am encouraged that I am not the only one to have spent, during these first six weeks, more than I would have spent on a PAD of analogues. So far it's been €240 on hardware and €106 on ejuice. But I have loads of stock to see me through for a number of weeks...

 

[AlexAlebaster]

I spend about 30 a month give or take. Granted I haven't been actively vaping for more than a month, that's what I'm starting to average out to. I buy up to 18ml for a 2-3 week period, which I think makes me one of the most light vapers I've known yet. Everyone else I talk to that is a big 'vape-head' spends about 50+ just on juices and extra carts, aties, and accessories. If I had the extra cash to throw at a hobby/habit like this I'd probably spend about 100-150 a month.
