I Have Come Down With A New DIY Disease

[Dixie1954]

Anyone else have these symptoms:
1) Feel an obsessive need to buy new flavors every month.

2) Do your monthly budget around buying more flavors

3) Constantly search the forum for flavoring threads

4) Read recipe threads till your eyes cross

Well if you have 2 or more of these symptoms then I am afraid you have it too As far as I know there is no known cure for this DIY disease, all we can do is keep DIYing And Live and Let vape I hope this thread will make some of you smile - please tell us of your DIYing symptoms

buying flavors with my mod obsession, I am gonna be living in a cardboard box surrounded by my charger and mods soon. I think it a contest to see who can die with the most flavor and mods. I think im winning!

 

[FastRope71]

We're all winning! Especially those of us who came to this pastime via analog cigarettes.

LoL, I'm sick with it for sure! I build my DIY collection each month. No matter how many bottles I have I need more. I supply my friends and love creating new flavors. There's always something that needs to be bought even if it's not a new flavor. I am always having to replenish something cuz' I like to stay ahead of the game and I hate running out of a flavor when I'm in my creative mode.

Nope I can honestly say that...............Oh hell who am I trying to fool..........got em all Dixie.

I had to stop buying flavors and start using the first ones I started with cause they were getting the DIY lonesome blues...lol

For some, DIY is merely a cost saving strategy. For some, it is a health control issue, and they want to know as much about what is in their vape as possible. For some, it is a hobby from which new things can be learned. For others, it is an art form to master. Of course most of us have more than one of those motivations, but I suspect that needing some of every available flavor to work with speaks to the art of it. So when you discover that holy grail, your magnum opus, please do share the recipe so your work of art lives on for posterity.

My symptom is a cranky wife who lost her desk and it now looks like something in Walter White would have set up in an RV...

No truer words have been seen on this forum.

(Am I the only one that has considered pawning the title to his car to get more flavorings?)

When my wife starts nagging me about another order showing up, I find myself looking around the house and thinking well if I sell that, I could use that money to place a new order. Or I could just ship stuff to work and she would never know .

I'm over it that urge to buy the flavor of the month Mod. I went through it, but realized saving money is part of the freedom of kicking the tobacco habit, too. There's nothing I want; I'm very satisfied with my devices. I still try new flavors of eliquid, but am currently enjoying Nicoticket flavors.

As for DIY, the make your own Ejuice option at Mt Baker Vapor satisfies that, and I love the Ejuice I've made. For about $10 I can pick 5 of any of their many flavors, and add as many flavor shots to each flavor as I see fit. I make a delicious Smores Gone Nuts, and reorder this yummy Nutella, Toasted Marshmallows, with Graham cracker crust that I thought of

 

[baseballmom]

Yes, I have it too...always reading the recipes on multiple forums, then missing an ingredient or two which leads to an order....been trying to organize things better and have been keep growing wishlist to save on shipping when I restock....luckily sample sizes are cheap

 

[Dixie1954]

Yeah lucky you I am figuring on spending close to $60 next month on flavorings - I am new though

 

[JimmyDB]

If you can afford it and enjoy it... what's the harm. If there is harm, rethink it.

I find the double happiness comes when you realize/admit that you are happy with what you have. Sometimes you have more [happiness], when you have less [stuff/distractions].

However, in the realm of DIY juice, and general DIY stuff, I seem to seldom find my double happiness, but then again... it's good to have goals.

 

[Mrdaputer]

The diy store by me has over 90 flavors of which I might have 60+. Why do I not have more you ask? I will tell you why I don't like coffee tea or tobacco flavors lol.
They sell in 4 sizes 5 ml for $2... 10 ml for $4... 20 ml for $6... and 30 ml for 8 bucks. For 2 bucks I figure heck why not

When testing flavors, I vape more than three times my usual doze. I vape each flavor over and over again trying to decide if it is my type of flavor or not.... It's like choosing a wife or a girl friend....

Too funny LOL I am getting 39 new to me flavors next month ugh lol

 

[JohnnyDill]

Eventually we find what we like! I bought close to 100 flavors and only come back to maybe a dozen. It has been months since I picked up anything new.

So, FINALLY, I am saving big money over store bought juice.

 

[Exchaner]

I have bought flavors that I have never even tested. Not even after 8 months. They were impulse buys - something I do each time I hear the words yummy, delicious and the like ....
