I found my solution to this whole issue... I have almost as many eGo's & Riva's as I do juices (we're talkin' about 15 I think...). I finally am down to actively puffing under 5 different flavors "at a time" (with me at all times)...

And yeah, the juices never stop flowing!

LOL.... I'm right there with you :). Riva 901 on the left of me, eGo on the right, and a row of color banded cartos in the middle! Oh, and 808 PT dead center. I'm so happy. :laugh:

You sound like my Mom. She has about 5 kr808s and her Riva and carts everywhere. I have to fill her carts. I told her I'm going to get her a little fanny pack to wear around the house. She just can't wear it outside.

I need to start chanting this!! So I see some juice site, and I look at their flavors, and I think..yeah..that sounds good! I see that the 3 or 5 ml sample bottle is priced pretty well, so I order a few samples..then they arrive. Case in point is sweet vapes. I ordered 6 sample flavors from them for the first time. They arrived today. The blueberry muffin is absolutely incredible..Now I need to buy 30 ml, because that 3 ml is just not going to last very long. And the other 5 flavors? I am terrified to try them!! Because I am sure that at least one of them, if not 2 or 3 is going to strike me, and once again..I need more! My vaping box can only hold so much folks. Stop me before I sample again!!
Sheesh.....juice vendors are all a bunch of pusher. "Psst..c'mere..try this.."
Saw this on KBV thread a few days ago and had to share it with you -

When you sample a flavor, think - if this was the only flavor, could I vape it the rest of my life? - if so, buy more... if not, go to the next sample.

Samples are the best way to find juices that you enjoy, but, if you like them all, I can see where it could be a problem. Luckily, I also found a lot of juices that I didn't like. I now have about 6 juices that I buy in large quantities, which is almost manageable, and I have sworn off looking for new juices. Good luck to you on your quest.


+1 on most of your post Banjo. I only tried a few flavors I really didnt like but I tried a lot I didn't have any interest in buying again. I've now got about 8 juice flavors I'll order from vendors and I DIY a few others and I'm happy:). No longer feel a need to look for new juice flavors from vendors.

Over the edge...
I do intend to use the PIF thread to get rid of some of these, but my problem is that I only do zero nic now, so my trading options are a tad limited.

You can add the juices you want to give away to the current offer in PIF or post it in the Treasure Chest. Someone will be glad to have them.

I just received my order form Honeyville and not having any luck with them.I tried them in my Kr808 and Bloog and nothing.Opened 5 new cartomizers and filled them and nothing. Just a burnt taste. Finally on the joye ego,dripping it,I got some taste . What is wrong with this? anyone know? Thanks.

Steep them for at least a week, better 2.
The cartomizers will be fine. No need to empty them. Just put them aside with the juice bottles and top them off when you are ready to try the juice again.

I've still got a few things coming, and i'm pretty excited about trying boba's bounty, but honestly, after trying KBV I just don't want to bother any more. Single-flavor juices are so lame and boring. So I'm absolutely done buying anything but clever, magical mixes like what KBV offers. i got five cool flavors, but OMG is... well, OMG.

A few good reasons to continue buying samplers -

1 - In times of economic uncertainty, you are doing your part to stimulate the economy!
2 - This is a new industry, peopled by mostly honest folks that are really trying to produce new and interesting flavors, including kung pao chicken (yes, I did buy it, and no, it didn't really hit the spot....interesting though). Honest feedback (try it at different voltages and in different atomizer styles, it WILL vary depending on conditions) can only help this fledgling industry along. Look at the history of automobiles as a parallel example, or even various adult beverages, some of the most interesting ideas came out of "I wonder.......".
3 - If several of your samples just don't do it for you, experiment by mixing (just keep notes for that magical moment when they gell together in a new and unique mix!). Using small samples cuts down on costs.

I'll buy any ones unwanted e juice. I'm new, and I don't have any yet.

Boston Legal for the win!! I still miss him and Alan! I wanted to make a bumper sticker in 2010 that said " Denny Crane for President" but I never got around to it:) I will in 2014.

Try some small samples Denny. Vapors Etc has 5 samples for $6.30 with the code 'vapezone'. That's the cheapest price I've found and you can try a ton for not much cash. Their tobaccos are excellent if you like that kinda juice.

I have found a couple that I like, one that I really like (wyatt earp, fsusa). I think I have been through about 20 5ml bottles of juice, and a couple of vendors. Spent around 80 on samples. wyatt earp is my main vape. now looking for a couple of more to round out my options. I think I am close to a mild fruit flavor (applewood), still looking for an herbal one. herbal as in rosemary, thyme, etc... not "herbal". :)
