ZERO!! I am a non smoker now so ZERO $$$$ have been wasted. If you have things sitting around that you've tried and don't like, either donate, trade, or sell, then none is wasted. A LOT of new vapers don't have the funds to buy things New and would love to try your unwanted items. Just a thought :)

I have gone pretty crazy since I started. Granted, there is a learning curve. Also, it takes a loooooong time to find the right juice and the setup that works for you. I have found what works for me, and now whatever I spend on maintenance (cartos, juice, batteries, etc.) is less than the 250 a month I would slend on cigarettes. However, I do spend quite a bit on hardware and stuff, because now I have a hobby instead of a habit. It's just fun!

I've bought juices that I didn't care for and just let them sit. Went back to them later and either they or my taste changed because I was able to enjoy most of them. Those that I didn't, I've passed on to someone else that would like them. I'm with those that feel like I haven't wasted a single dime. I'm a very happy non-smoker! :D

I haven't wasted any. What I don't like, I pay forward. Others have done the same for me. My first Blu kit went to a friend, eGo's to family members. Juice to friends and family.

I have sent things to people here on ECF, and others here have sent me things. I just don't see the point in keeping something I won't use, and I enjoy knowing someone else may like what I don't care for. I haven't sold anything, I am too busy paying it forward!

I would say I have probably not saved much. But I enjoy vaping much more than smoking. Have I wasted some money on juice? Sure I have. I have also bought hardware that I have outgrown, some I did not like when I tried it first. But even if I spent more, my health is better. What is the value of that?

I have bought quite a few things I won't use and will give away or play with at another time. I love trying new things out. I have a budget I allow myself to spend on vape stuff. I tend to go over it a lot, especially when a new mod comes out. I spend a lot of time on the classifieds section on the forum, and have gotten some great deals. It is a hobby. Keeps me off the streets and out of trouble, too!

jammer, you took the words out of my mouth. Anyone who is thinking about money saved is not a long term investor. The health saved is priceless. I was a hopeless nicotine addict and my health was suffering. 2 months into this, I go up 5 floors up the bulding without a problem, earlier I would wait for elevator to avoid huffing and puffing to even go 1 floor.

Even if you use expensive juices, you WILL save money in 3-4 months. Offcourse, if you are going to get OCD and buy every new mod, every new version of everything, every juice flvor, that is a different story. I am sticking with my ego twists (3 of them), T2s, T3s, and Vivi Nova for some time. Made the rookie mistakes, probably 100 down the drain. Now it is all juice cost and it is considerably less than pack of cig.
