I just ordered nic to mix my own, just in case.
Now I am wondering if this is going to be one of those Y2K things.
could be, but it still lets you make plenty of juice for pennies, so not waste. Y2K, I loved that, made a lot of money selling new gear in 98 and 99. no one wanted to listen to us in the industry saying everything critical was patched and updated and there will be no issues. The media really spun a load on that one.

If it is, then we just don't need to buy more for a long while. If it is as bad as we think it COULD be, then we will be covered until they allow it to be legal again.

i ordered 2L yesterday to go along with the 3 or 4 i already have. thinking about another 2L.

hell, i just might live to reach 150...

And if you don't, then I'll have a short drive to get my supply restocked. [emoji6]

aah. Y2K. fond memories. sold myself as a consultant. made a lot of money for little real work.

the only thing that came close to that was back when "electro-static discharge" was a raging topic in the manufacturing world. that, and "quality circles"... consulting gravy boats...







i wonder if mr. pdib could use a consultant...

It might very well be. But high-test nic base should last pretty much forever if kept well sealed from oxygen in a cold, dark place. And even if it remains available, do you really think it's going to remain as inexpensive (untaxed!) as it is now?

Except for having having the cost of a few cartons of smokes tied up, I see no downside to having a good decent stockpile of the stuff.

All my nic liquid, even the new stuff i have yet to get will have totalled about $300. Which is $100 less than HRH and my monthly cigarette bill used to be.

There's not much evidence it degrades much even after years, so freezing it etc is likely overkill and anyway, i haven't the room. So dark wardrobe and see you later!

The killer sale price got me to quit procrastinating and get what I need to mix my own.
Since I use mostly unflavored it should have been a no-brainer but I had just been buying premixed because it was easy and I was lazy.

Can't quote from a closed thread but here is the original post

"Still got a pair of klackers in a drawer somewhere.
I think the lawn darts got lost in the move to our current house 20 years or so ago."

Wife decided to start a clean up the basement campaign. :(

But I am finding some relics :)
