My story....

I am pretty new to vaping...my husband, Mike, has been talking about getting a device for several months - so we saved up and bought our own devices on July 15th. He got the Silver Bullet and he got me the Bloog, since I didn't think I'd want to carry around and suck on a ratchet! lol For 2 weeks we committed to using these devices first before having an analog....I was not happy at all with the Bloog. Every juice we put in the cartos tasted weird. I tried Mike's SB and I liked it much better, but couldn't get over the size. After 2 weeks, he had his last analog and was totally vaping 100%! Awesome for him....but I couldn't bring myself to like anything off of the Bloog - which surprised me, because I 'tolerated' the taste of analogs for SO many years...right!?!?

Anyways - we went down to AltSmoke's store in New Phila (thankfully, they're only about 30 minutes from us!!! and awesome people there too!) and I tried vaping with an Alpha! OMG I loved it! The flavors on that thing were amazing...even the same flavors I tried in the Bloog - we 100 times better in the Alpha! So...I bought that...Mike took the Bloog and uses it at school or a backup if he forgets his juice...lol

Well....it's been exactly 2 weeks since I've had my last analog and I don't miss it AT all! I can't imagine why we never went with vaping before?? Seriously! We switched over to vaping mainly to save ourselves from the life of cigarettes and to save money...well, we're saved from analogs - not so much on money! I think we've spent hundreds more on juice/supplies in the last few weeks - but it's so worth it, right!?! I absolutely love ordering new flavors and trying them....these vendors are great with flavor combos!!

Next we're going to try to make our own juice! I think it's going to be better for us - we're going to go bankrupt if we keep ordering new flavors each week! LOL!

Well....that's my story - not too much to tell now....but I'm proud to vape now and I try telling everyone who smokes analogs about e-cigs!!...kind of a pay it forward, right?! :)

Hi Wren and welcome to ECF :) It's a good story you have and it kind of proves one of my favourite bits of advice to newcomers i.e. if you can't get on with the first system / juice / nic strength try something else - you will find one that suits you and vaping is so much better than smoking once you have found your 'niche'. Glad to have you onboard :thumbs:
 
Thanks! It's been a battle, really, to power through all of this information and really figure out what you really like! Thankfully we have a retail store just down the road (so to speak..lol) that really answered a lot of our questions and got to try some juices. I hope that more retail stores become available (not the mall kiosks...) so that more people can become aware of this and actually try the products! :D I don't miss smoking and will never have another one again..EVER! :D

That's so exciting Wrennifer!! Welcome to your life!! We have a store within 30 minutes of us as well, but their hours are exactly the same as the hours we work. So it seems we are "doomed" to ordering everything online. It's all good though...most of the online vendors are top notch customer service geared folks anyway.

Congrats on your new healthier addiction. Let us know if you have any issues or questions. I know you'll find tons of help here.
