How much liquid does one need?

[dutchshrek]

VaporBomb's flavor of the week juice is $10 for a 30ml bottle, but like others have said, it's best to start with smaller bottles so you can find the flavors you like without wasting a lot juice and money.

When I started vaping I bought from VaporBomb exclusively and I loved them. The prices are very reasonable and the juice is tasty. I just mix my own juice now, so I rarely ever buy anymore.

Amaretto, Grand Marnier....if these flavours are half as good as they sound I'm going to owe you one for that tip.

I found a website, the vaporpro.com that has 30ml bottles for $10.95. I too am trying to save the most $'s. A relative got me a GreenSmoke starter kit as a gift. I am/was a pack a day kind of gal and she got me a Social Smokers kit. While I'm pleased for the most part., I'd like more versatility, and a constant availability to an e-cig, because I am way more than a Social Smoker, lol. Plan on getting an additional battery and blank catomizers from VaporKings.com and the e-juice from vaporpro.com. It should run me approx, $40.00, including shipping. I've read so many reviews and have done so much research on the internet, I'm over whelmed!

Holy crap....30ml in a week or so? My first 10ml bottle lasted me almost two weeks!

thanks, hairball. i'm about to make my first order(s) and that list of sample vendors is a great help.

I also recently started, was a pack a day smoker, and after using a PV for a few days and doing some reading, I decided to use this as a cost estimate (I made it conservative, looks like with a little luck actual costs will be slightly less):

Juice cost - $0.60/ml, including shipping. Larger quantity purchases will on average probably be cheaper, but I'm still "flavor hopping".
Use - 3 ml/day.
Spare parts - $15 - $20/mo, after initial purchase. Batteries and atomizers will die, but I'm too new to estimate how often, so this is just a guess - basically one battery + one atomizer per month.

Comes out to $70-$75 / mo. My actual cost seems to be below that, but I haven't had any hardware fail yet.

I vape 24/7 and go through 5-6ml a day. So that's the top ceiling. And I chain vape at times as well.

A 30ml bottle will last me seven or eight days and most of the time i buy unflavoured and sometimes vape it that way and sometimes flavour it. a 30ml bottle costs me about four pounds when bought in a 250ml bottle . say a pound a week for atomizers . i use a pass through so no batteries . all done twenty pounds a month. another fiver if i flavour it. way cheaper than smoking .

It would seem that samplers can be quite expensive.
With the 3-6ml bottles found all over the place I have yet to be able to match the price of a 30ml bottle from liberty-flights. (perhaps because of the discount)

So perhaps I will need to just take a little risk in order to save a few dollars.
What I will do though, is give myself a crash course in DIY flavoring.
There seems to be quite a bit of info on these forums and it seems it will make things cheaper and will give me enough variety.

Thanks for all the advice though people, you've all been a great help.
