Had to say, i quit smoking and start vaping not because i want to quit. Just healthier. :D i understand what you mean shawn. I spend monthly like mad since there will be always something new to try. 2 yrs vaping and i lost count how many mod i have, tanks, batteries and etc. I understand most people convert to vaping to quit analogs and save money, my advise is if you already happy with the current setup just maintain it.

I know some peeps myself included always want to try something new and trial and error. Myself have encounter few recommendation and when i bought it, just doesn't suits me. A money waste there but for me personally i like to see it from my own eye's.

I "broke even" recently and decided that my new rule is that I won't spend on anything new unless I'm in the black. Buying something new can take me into the red, but if only a little bit ... which my last juice purchase did. Well, juice and an 18650 for my new VTube. I easily have 100ml of juice across a bunch of different flavors, so I'm in no risk of running out any time soon, just add a bottle here or there to make sure I always have some.

Yup, it's an addiction like any other. To make myself feel better, I watch SteelJan's videos with a pen and pad so that I can re-learn high school physics and feel like what I'm doing is actually making me both healthier and smarter! "you see, hun, the $400 I spent this month on vaping will actually help me tutor the girls when they take physics 14 years from now AND will make sure that I'm alive long enough to do it... Oh, those new bottles of juices and mods? ... that's how I learn this stuff - think of it as lab equipment fees. You understand, right, ...right?" *wife then proceeds to give me "that look" after which I retreat to the bathroom to vape...

I always think that if I smoked long enough the consequences would be far more expensive and disastrous than anything a bit of gadget-lust would cause. So long as you're not messing with your rent check/mortgage payment things should be alright. I can't stop watching Provari/GG mod/Zenesis reviews so I'm not sure how well I'll be able to control myself... :) good luck!

I too feel like I'm spending way to much money. But my husband always points out that it is "far less expensive than smoking and that doesn't count the health benefits." I'm new to vaping as well and as long as I'm not smoking analogs than I'm willing to spend a few bucks. It doesn't help that I've become the local vaping expert who has to buy all the stuff for friends and family! If you really want a time sync, then try DIY ejuice:)

the way i look at it if i dont spend it on vaping ill end on spending it on something else i dont need and this is cheap compared to other hobbies ive had in the past (cars, motorcyles).any vaping hardware i have that i dont use gets sold then reinvested into other vaping supplies so I really wouldnt know how much ive spent nor do i care to know . sometimes its just better not to know

Yeah, it's money better spent someone said to me once. I do agree with them on that. But of late I've been spending money at IKEA making my apartment look better. So yeah, that's also a better place to spend my money. And I'm saving up for a 14n cruise vacation in December.

For me it helped a little that I've won a couple of forum contests on here which brought in some extra juice and some APVs. :)

I love to read everyone attitude about spending money on vaping and trying new things. That's what keep us young at heart.

I agree. And healthier. :) Now with regards to such great things as the Provari ... I just can't pull the trigger there ... "yet." I'm thinking it might be my Christmas present to myself. But we shall see. Personally I still love the looks of the GLV-2, but I'm on the VV wagon now and won't fall off. :)

I just bought my second mod and am in the red a bit lol. Wife gave me a ration of crap, but she quickly realized that my health has rapidly improved ( I was a pack a day smoker that is on two different asthma meds ) after I walked up 4 flights of stairs without having to stop between each one. I love the savings counter on here it tells me when I can buy another beautiful mod or cool new item that surfaces (wife probably hates it though lol). So yeah your not alone :)
