Juice prices getting out of hand

[tj99959]

On average my liquid is costing me 6c/ml, so $1.80 for 30ml.

I consider buying a bottle of juice from a B&M a novilty that I will do just for the hell of it.

8 cents per mg/ml for the nic level? so a 30 nic juice would be 2.40$ per ml just in taxes? would that be like 240$ for a 100 ml bottle?

It is a Scary Concept Isn't It.

But that would be Madness. And it could Never Happen. Right?

As others have suggested DIY is a great way to reduce your expenses... it does help to do a lot of price comparisons for the basic ingredients.

If you aren't quite ready to jump into DIY I discovered an easy way to reduce costs. I use mostly VG juices. So I bought a large bottle of VG (500ml) for $10. I use 6mg nicotine... So I buy a single 30ml bottle of my favorite flavor at 24mg nicotine... then split that into 4 30ml bottles.

There is three main problems with diy for me. One it is a bigger initial investment with getting supplies two I don't have the time & three I really would like to support local b&m. I do tell them that their juice is too expensive & some seem offended by that & they don't set the prices because most of their juices are about the same as online if you were paying for shipping.

If you don't mind, would that be the central valley in California? As for the juice, MT. Baker to me has great E Juice. it does need to steep for about a week depending on what you get, but I get the 50 ml bottles and am paying about 24 cents an ML. If you look around you can find discount codes for free shipping or 10% off.

Yes in CA, there is like seven shops within thirty minutes of me. There is one in Modesto, Cropduster901 that I continue to support because they have "fair" pricing on their juice. Its $15 for 30ml, I buy two bottles at a time and with sales tax its like $32 and they craft all their own juices. I have found cheaper, much cheaper online but I like to support the local economy not a M&P across the country.
I just don't understand why other stores have to have such expensive juices, and there not up charging the hell out of juices their prices are about the same prices for the same brands online. Its like their afraid to have any "Cheap" juices inside their store.
How much is juice going to be after the taxes and regulations kick in when some companies are already charging $30 for 30ml?

I'd love to DIY some day, but there's just so much good juice out there that ready made! I mean, I don't even know which 3 or 5 flavors I'd even make if I could. After trying 4 or 5 different vanilla custards for example, just goes to show even one flavor won't all taste the same.
