I know a lot of the stuff can be bought locally, but I still have a few questions.

VG- is the stuff labeled just Glycerin USP grade what I'm looking for? Its 99.5% pure, so is that good enough?

PG- Not exactly sure where to get it. I read farmer supply stores, so I looked/asked at my local Tractor Supply Company, but they've never heard of it.

Droppers/Syringes/Small Bottles- No idea where to get these. Checked Rite-Aid, will check Walgreens next.

Propylene Glycol is what to ask for. It's used in the dairy industry to protect cows from ketosis. Should be in the "cattle" section of a full-service farm store. About $25/gallon at Tractor Supply, no smaller quantity available. Make sure it has "USP" on the label. Same place (TSC or other full-service farm store) will have syringes, hypodermic needles, and the like. For bottles, ask your pharmacist if you can buy a few of the Rx cough syrup bottles - they *may* just give you some.

The glycerin marked "USP" is good to go.
