I have issues

[Spencer87]

Every time I put my credit card down... I pick it up and use it.

Last 3 months, Ive spent probably 1000+ on e cig stuff.

I cant stop buyign.
I have well over 2 Litres of juice, and another half litre coming in.
I also have two new mech clones, 2 more rebuildable atomizers, sionce i got one last night,

geez... I dunno how to stop!
Especially with the juice. Its the damn sales... mixed with the feelings of some vaping apocolypse and needing to stock up to be set for a little while.

and a lot of mty juice is even unusable since its 12 mg, and since the time i bought it, 12 became too much... (especially for dripping)

Its like AHHHHH

How can I stop

Especially with the juices.......

Does anyone elses wallet \feel the hit?

I mean, I make enough to afford it, but barely. I feel like an addict, always perusing the net for new deals. .....

Cut up the card. But before hand, buy some 0mg juice of the 12mg juice you drip with and mix it to make 6mg juice to save what you have.

Buy what you need.

this is sort of a humorous but ongoing topic here anyway

If you shop indiscriminately, it *is* sort of like being an addict. I personally feel there comes a point where you ask yourself 'am I constantly reaching for an elusive satisfaction?'

I think there is wisdom in the old adages about being happy with what you have, or living within (or below) your means, etc. The reason they are famous wisdoms is probably because they.......are.

Contentment isn't about more / different all the time, seen people do this with houses, with spouses, with shopping for other stuff. They have this idea that what they are looking for is just a few more purchases, a few more wives, a few more.......

Eh. Don't listen to me. I'm really not the person to ask, as I am sort of against over-consumption in general LOL

Its just that I've never met anyone who achieved any kind of happiness or contentment that way.

Keep in mind, I am not talking about striving for better.....having motivation or goals. There is a huge difference between stalking goals while being content, and stalking goals because one is unhappy.

I think one of the major things in sales. All the sales. I figure... I might as well get it while It's cheap......right?

I've been tempted to do it... The sales on top of every day a new ban, a new area you can't vape in, a new threat from big pharma and tobacco... It does sorta feel like if I don't stock up now, it won't just be a one little cig relapse, it'll be, 'Oh, I can't even buy vape stuff anymore anyway so I'll just go back to smoking.' thing...

At least, for me, I found that my local smoke shop has Bali Shag which I used to smoke when I did RYO, so it'll sorta be better...I guess...not that I want to think about that. lol

If you start looking into contractors to build you an underground, temperature controlled vape-cave, I think that'd be the time to cut up the credit card.

Only if you can afford it and will use it. Otherwise, you could be considered a "shopaholic".

Hey now, if I could clone my wife, I'd take at least two copies.

Otherwise I try to go by this saying, I'm not rich enough to buy cheap stuff and just about every time I stray from that ideal I end up regretting it.

Spend wisely my friend, if you have a good mod or two your done there, if you have a dripper and some sort of tank atty your done there too.

As for juice, I wouldn't keep much more than three months worth on hand, and for most that's well under a liter.

If you want to survive the vape apocalypse, buy 100mg/ml nicotine in PG and toss it in the freezer. Even if you never DIY it'll be worth your while in the dark days should they come.
