[QUOTE="bombastinator, post: 23648914, member: 43994"] Convenience is really expensive. I smoke squonks mostly these days. RDAs with a juice resovoir in the mod and a hole in the RDA to pump juice up there when it runs dry. They are more annoying, and more expensive at the start, but the continuing cost is so much lower I can’t justify literally anything else except rdtas. It costs about a penny to do a rewick. Such a low cost I can do it daily if I want. With home made juice costing about $6 for a 30ml bottle, my costs are about $25/mo. 1/100th the cost or less of disposables which are actually almost as expensive as cigarettes. It’s more fiddly. A bit like smoking a pipe, and I bought several years woth of nic and flavorings that take up about a tenth of my fridge (the stored nic is in the freezer, the on-deck bottle and the flavorings are in the fridge) rewicking does take a few minutes and I do need to wash my hands afterward, and ju e makking is 10 minutes every couple weeks (I got like a dozen empty bottles I reuse) but I don’t have to do it any more often than any other rewick, such as changing a coil. Kinda depends on what your disposable income level is I guess. Disposables and pods used to suck, but they’re as good as anything else these days. Just vastly more expensive. I used to have a 2 pack a day habit so at $5/pack (which is what I was spending, they’re probably more now) that’s $10/day so $70/week or $280/mo. It’s a noticeable difference so with the money saved over 5 years you could, for example, pay off a year of the average mortgage, Go on. an all expenses paid trip to Hawaii, buy a decent used car, sailboat or motorcycle, something anyway. How much nicer would the car you are driving be if it was $265 more per month? How much less stress would there be if it was $265 cheaper? [/QUOTE]
