I think I'm a sample size addict

[house mouse]

I just can not seem to resist trying new vendors and flavor samples. I'm slowly identifyng the flavors I really love and go back and order larger bottles, but then I'm at a new site trying those flavors out and then ordering larger bottles, then wash, rinse, repeat.

I've got a lot of samples that didn't personally make the cut for me, but I'm going to take them and a new Ego kit to my daughter when I go visit her this spring hoping to get her into vaping. And I'll take the ones that I really like for her to try. So, I don't view it as a loss. I just feel like I'm still searching for THE perfect vape.

I've only been at this a month now, but do you tend to settle down over time with a few tried and true favorites? Or, am I doomed? Does anyone else feel like this?

Sorry you're doomed!!!!

After all this time I still love trying samples.

Samples are great, aren't they? There is no tried and true rule about when someone will find their 'perfect' vape, if ever. I did feel like I would never find that perfect vape, but I am now contentedly vaping away at a couple of nice flavors, and I am not too worried anymore. Even if you do not find one flavor you stand above the rest, having a few favorites is a real bonus, cause you'll always have variety to look forward to!

I started to DIY and I am still addicted to sample sizes, now they are new recipes I come up with. Most I have loved or need just a little tweaking, so making some bigger bottles but then I think of something else I might like and my tackle box and my desk are covered in 3 ml bottles. I don't think there is a cure for the addiction.

Variety is the spice of life. I just never can make up my mind. However whatever flavour I choose to vape, it is always better tasting than an analog.

Sorry you're doomed!!!!

DANG IT!!! I KNEW I should have bought the bigger tackle box.

I now have two tackle boxes, one for juice and hardware and one for DIY supplies. My husband says he is going to buy me a fishing vest to go with them...lol

Its OK house, I am just like you, and you will find you will buy a new tackle box for the ones you love, and keep the ones you dont in the other tackle box. Sounds like you need to join the PIF group, if you have not already. I have over 70 sample sizes, and recently just dropped them all off at my best friends house once he got his ego I ordered him. He is one lucky guy IMO.

Yeah, my daughter is going to make out like a bandit on my rejects.

Oh do I ever love sample sizes. Love to try out the new stuff just to find that perfect vape for me. My pocketbook cringes every time I hit the "Checkout" button.

 

[Heartbskts]

I think that I am falling into this mess too lol!! You guys are great friends and family members it sounds like- I wish some of my friends and family vaped!
I already have about 8-10 flavors that I love, but keep buying the new 10ml bottles to try out more new flavors.
Hey, they are the perfect size for your purse too, so that's a huge bonus, aint it?? My daughter, who lives about 2 1/2 hrs from me just got a 2nd job at ....'s Sporting Goods, so now I'm going to search their site for pink tackleboxes lol
PLUS: I'm really wanting to convert people and how am I gonna do this if I can't carry around at least 20 different sample size bottles, right again??

I'm a sample size addict too! I find that 80% I don't really like, but I keep them thinking I might like them someday. Of the 20% I like, there are a couple I really really like. I love when that happens. Reminds me of golf, when I hit a perfect shot, few and far between. But as bjannr says, they all taste better than analogs!

I'm with you house mouse, bought a lot of samples in the first two weeks since a lot of veteran's had written that I'd lose the need for tobacco flavor quickly. Other than a having to toss a few that I really hated my new problem is that I've tried a few mixes of flavors and hit a couple I really liked but I didn't make any notes so I have no idea how to create them again. I'm going to start keeping notes!

Uh oh. I better get to Walmart and get myself a tackle box! Only been vaping 11 days - my samples are starting to pile up and I have incoming!!!

The good thing though is that we have backup juice when an order mysteriously takes much, much longer to get to your mailbox than normal. Currently going through that with one of my suppliers now. Never underestimate the need for backup juice. But it's all good. Plenty here to keep me vaping until the mailman arrives.

my favorite samplers have come from velvetvapors.com and vaporsetc.com. Good price, good juice and lots of choices!

 

[Paisley]

If I have ordered too many juices samples I then punish myself by finishing off a juice sample I was not exactly fond of before I am allowed to try the new samples, I actually found out I really liked the menthal that way. PIF worked too for the ones I really didn't care for.

I do the same with my DIY, I mix up the mistakes and empty the bottle before I mix up a new batch. I do keep track of my DIY mixes on an Excel sheet for future reference and mix 3 ml samples so there isn't too much, but then it's amazing how much the coconut flavor can cover up.

DANG IT!!! I KNEW I should have bought the bigger tackle box.

I just found an sample bottle of cinnamon which I have no recollection of buying or trying but it's empty. 8-o8-o

My favorite sample pack was a variety of tobacco flavors from MyFreedomSmokes.
