How much have you spent so far...

[bschade1]

Well, I feel a lot better now. I "only" spent $260 in the first 6 days.

 

[Kendra]

Yep, that's why everything I buy is compatible with a 901 atty...........

That's what I'm doing with the 801. Actually, the BE112s from bestecig-- they're the "classic" kind with the two holes. I'm using the SD with the 901s, but I have the adapter with the SD and I'm buying another adapter with the GG.

I only bought the EVos because vapordrag.ca was going out of business, but I bought every single atomizer he had left. And, then, after I paid, he put up two more for sale and I quickly got those, too! (But, he didn't charge me more shipping)

So, when all my 901s are gone, when my cute little mini foggers in the Janty PCC case (that should arrive tomorrow) are all gone, I'll be exclusively on the 801s! And then, when I am really old and my 801 supplies are all gone, I'll finish up with my 4081s. And, then, if I'm still around, I'll pull out those last two Janty sticks. I'll just vape the Evos whenever.


You gotta plan.

Don't let my wife read this, I just checked this out, yesterday after discussing it with one of my BFF's

since Dec 10th $3460.00
but I own a lot of great great stuff, I keep telling myself, I own a lot of great great stuff, I own a lot of great great stuff, I own a lot of great great stuff, if you say things 3 times over and over, it is TRUE!!

So, I know I own a lot of great great stuff!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I thought I was bad, I bow down in front of the vaping king.

Thanks everyone for making me feel a little better about my impulse buys. I've been vaping only for a month and I'm already up to $1100. I have so much parts and liquid/carts I think I can qualify to be a supplier, lol.

 

[dogsteve]

GOOD GAWD COS!!!!!
Did some of those sets come with a ......???????

Aren't you afraid that some of that good stuff may expire before you get to use it? I figure that I'm good for at least a year on $500.00 worth.

jd

$500.00 for me also.

 

[BARENETTED]

Wow - some of you people got it real bad! I was beating myself up about spending 600.00 since January 1st. I guess I have done good!!!
However, I guarantee that I spent well over that amount in patches, gum, inhalers, zyban, hypnosis, etc! I was religious about buying a box of 21 patches from Costco every six weeks or so. I would get through the first box and then think - 'I can have one and then I will go back to the patch again' How sick is that? Every other Monday - I was quitting. So, I was buying all that stuff in addition to analogs!

Someone said in another thread today - Cancer is expensive. Sad but true.

 

[gernsey]

I just started E-Cig's last week.

I've got a starter pack 901, a Johnson Creek sample pack, misc other flavor juices from odd websites, a starter pack mini E-cig(for my wife), a 510 start pack for my wife (didn't like the mini).

I'm over $300.. But i haven't had an analog cigarette in 4 days, and my wife is on her way to quitting also. And that is priceless...

And hell, i'm stimulating the economy with my tax return.

OH this is funny. Well, you said, "how sick is that?"

I used to put the patch on, keep it on, decide to smoke but keep the patch on at the same time thinking I'd only have one cigarette and didn't want to actually waste the patch for just one cigarette. This was each day I used the patch. By 1pm I'd be smoking with the patch on.

I SO did that too! So in essence, I wasted 50 dollars on a box of patches and still bought a pack of cigarettes to go with em! By day 3 the patches have been randomly distributed to other smoking buddies who in turn tossed them into a drawer and forget about them.

 

[Kimpetuous]

In it a week and have spent close to $200, and I feel like $1,000,000.

 

[AnglVapin]

Wow, I feel like an amateur @ $1500 since March.........

You and I must have started shopping at that same places at the same time! LOL

I'm curious... with your 1500.00, have you settled on one type and stocked up, or... are you still in search? lol

I was on the patches (HIGH) for months , and I still smoked a half a pack a day , PLUS everytime I would open a new packet...I would inhale the nicotine "dust" that was in the packet for that monster morning nico-blast.A few times when I was withdrawing heavy,I would even put a bit of water in the packet and drink it down and follow with a swig of coffee. Weeeeeeeeeee

See, I didn't realize I could do that! And to think of all the nicotine I missed out on.

I smoked about 1/2 a pack to a pack, too, on the HIGH patches.

I had put off opening this thread for fear of seeing a bunch of people talking about how they feel bad about having already spent $150 in a month. Imagine my relief in finding out that Cosican has me beat by a few hundred bucks. Whew!

Fortunately, I never went into this in hopes of saving money . . . I was looking to reduce my tobacco intake. The fact that I've managed to quit tobacco completely is nothing short of amazing, and I don't regret a single penny I've spent on my new addiction.

Even my husband, frugal guy that he is, isn't complaining about the money spent. He's so grateful that I've quit smoking that he even encouraged me to buy the new JantyStick as my Mother's Day present. I love that man.

I will place a large order for atomizers from China, cross my fingers that they arrive, and then I'll be pretty much done for the next six months or so . . . unless, of course, something way cool comes onto the market . . . .

It's hard being a gadget freak with an addiction.

A word of comfort to the newbies:

You really don't HAVE to spend this much money. Really. I'd hate for anyone to read this thread and think that somehow one has to spend piles of money in order to successfully vape. Many, many members are quite happy with one or two e-cig models and a modest stash of liquid and spare parts--and they have spent nowhere near the obnoxious amounts shared here.

Just don't want anyone to be scared off by our personal horror stories. 8-o

 

[Wildsky]

OK OK now you MADE me figure it out. Not too bad - I've spent about $350 so far, since my first NJOY in Feb.
I think at least $100 of that is juice purchases, I did buy 100ml from Eastmall, and I've tried a few others.
I have that NJOY in a drawer somewhere. I use my 901 all the time, I bought a starter kit from Altsmoke (rob) and an extra battery and a few atomizers, and thats it so far. (waiting on a mystery bag from Rob as we speak - woooHooooo)

 

[luvmyvapor]

I was feeling pretty bad about spending over a grand but now that I saw this thread,
I feel normal - (well sorta <grin>)
I just can't help myself - new toys. If I could afford it, I know I would buy more.

JJ I think your comments are more than profound. I, being an over the top, obessive, compulsive, crazy and really a bit insane, ( you can call my shrink to comfirm) would agree. That anyone starting out, does NOt have to commit to so much money.. Today, this forum along with a handful of others offer so much valuable insight and information, that no one has to be in the dark anymore, I, did not use this forum or anyother site, for that matter, prior to getting into vaping. I can't say it would have saved me any money, it would have help me not make so many mistakes

I bought w/o knowing nor understanding vaping. Now, that I do understand the process and what pleases me, I have to admit I could have spent less. How much less, cant say, but less.
But as silly as it may sound, I still would have spent more, much more, if I still bought analogs
