I have a question I know someone in this thread can answer. I have placed 8 orders from MBV since 6 26. Since the second order I have been using the vaporfrombaker coupon. Today I found out they also have a coupon code freeshipping which obviously makes the shipping free. Most of my orders are between 18 and 22 dollars so my 10% from code one is less savings than the average of about 3.24 per order for free shipping. My question is does anyone know if the freeshipping code changes the shipping method from the first class that is their cheapest option. The reason I ask is I have become very fond of the max of 3 days from cart to mailbox but would welcome the extra savings. At this point with code 2 the savings difference would already equate to a 30 ml bottle.

The free shipping code can only be used once per account. First Class Mail is the cheapest shipping option, so as long as you're not choosing priority or UPS, it shouldn't "downgrade" you.

I think i read on here somewhere that the freeshipping code will only work once with ur account. Someone please correct me if im wrong. and i can confirm it does work for less that $50 orders. i used it on my last one of 22 bux and it worked just fine. ;)

And i think it does change it to the regular shipping vs the next level up, another thing i could be wrong on. JAMES!!! you wanna chime in on this?

Actually, he can't chime in, in this thread at least. As a supplier they are only aloud to post in there designated tread. That being said teh free shipping coupon is a one time deal however the vapoerfrombaker gives me more off anyhow (I may have an addiction)

The vaporfrombaker would benefit me more if I spent more per order no doubt. My thing is I split my orders and make multiples to get that free 15 ml.

Is shipping always free when the purchase is over $50?

Also,
when flavoring pure VG with no nic, I am wondering if the 12% or so general rule of thumb is what I should aim for with flavoring. I don't have a way to measure it, so do I just eyeball it and then go from there? I have the 15mL flavoring and would like to make 60 mL so the most that I could do is 1/4 flavoring (which I know is really strong.)

I know it's been said before, but shots aren't equal to the original amount right? Not a big deal since I'll just be flavoring to taste but just curious if I add flavoring to already flavored stuff how many "shots" it equates to.

I think it's been posted that 10-12% flavoring is the "normal" for most MBV juices, and each additional shot is another 2%.

It will be difficult to measure juices by eyeball. Some DIYers measure their flavorings by counting drops...it is not the most accurate technique since the drop size can vary, but it might be a better approach than not having a technique. Some syringes and a graduated cylinder really are worth the investment, IMO.

oh duh. I totally forgot I had syringes with measurements in mL that I was planning on using for this. Thanks for reminding me.

I gave my boyfriend some Butter Pecan that had 4-5 shots in it, and I cut with VG so it was at 9mg nic and 40PG/60VG--so the flavoring should now be at 2-2.5 shots. I didn't tell him what it was though because I wanted to see how much the name defines the expectation/enjoyment.
