Out of curiosity is there a thread for the whole spending problem. Truthfully, it is getting out of hand for me, not that I have spent outrageously at all, but I do want to save as much money as I can and my mind keeps telling me "You don't need this!" While learned behavior of years of smoking (start freaking out when you're down to half a pack and have to scoot out and get some) kicks in and I says "You have to get that deal from Liberty Flights on the three ego batteries, who knows when a battery will die! At the very least grab one of those 900mAH batteries, they are only $21.50 and then you don't have to worry you'll be dead in the water when you're out and about." Never mind that I just bought a riva kit last week as a backup to the ego, or that I have a passthrough for the car plus my original 510 kit.
I rationalize to myself as well that this if less than the costs of analogs by far, but though I should have started vaping for all of the good and noble reasons (better health, healthier choices to model for my kids, breaking the smoking addiction) I didn't, I wanted to save money and I just have to keep reminding myself of that and not worry about it until I have to replace something. The bad thing is that it's all under warranty I shouldn't have to worry about it for at least 5 months. I really think rather than replacing one addiction with another it's a continuation of the smoking addiction and the frenzy I'd go into when I didn't have my cigarettes with me. I think those members that live in very rural, northern areas will understand the frenzied state a bit better.
