Exactly! And vamo will be here Monday

I just loaded up stallion hybrid cart for the first time. End all been all at 4.2 very. Just ordered more to put into my Texas tuff tank... I finally found a great and relatively cheap setup now!
Hi Kosher Fried, think were brother's. Just orderd A VAMo this week also. What you spent so far we all are spending but over two/three months were playing catch up. But having fun, gets to the point that we don't care how much we spend onj all this NEW STUFF..

Well, I may as well comment as well. I've spent just under $500 in the last few days and have 8 batteries from 280 mAh for work to 1000 mAh for home, clearos, cartos, juices, flavorings, PG, VG, and sweetener. I have a lot to play around with for the next few months. Now if I can just find out how I made that tobacco + juicy fruit mix that tastes like pipe tobacco I'll be happy!

Merry Christmas to me!

Well, I wish I could tell you that the spending stops after a while...even though for some it actually does...but a lot of us vapers become victims of what we call in German the Haben-Will-Virus (HWV) which translates to Want-To-Have-Virus (WTHV)...lol
I know exactly two people who do not own more than two mods and two atomizers each...the rest of my "vaping buddies" has fallen victim to the WTHV...
On the other hand this might go on for a while until you find your perfect combination of mod and atomizer. I finally did after a year. Now my WTHV has been reduced to a mere simmer...and I only have very few items on my wishlist. Those are the more expensive ones though...and I guess I'll have to find a new job or win the lottery before I can afford them...lol

Hi and welcome to ECF.

Well I could be less than encouraging and say "is that all?" but as you are finding out its not hard to do :oops: Getting your setup is costly at first, over time they will have paid for their self.

Now to encourage you. I went way deeper then that.

Smoking was an addiction and Vaping is my new obsession.

So happy I found ECF. Otherwise I may have spent way too much money by now. Thanks to the info here I have save a ton of money and headaches. Keeping it simple. Just started a month ago and only in a little over a 100 bucks. A couple of batteries, 3 clearos, and a 3 different eliquids. Helpful to have a local place that allows you to try flavors before you buy.

Brick and mortars are nice! Most online vendors also have sample packs that way you don't get stuck with a bottle of juice you dont like.

Hey Kosher. I spent close to $1000 my first 3 months which was kind of scary. But my two year anniversary comes up in a few weeks and I am so far ahead financially, it's ridiculous. In my upcoming third year, I will spend less than $150 (on DIY juice supplies) and that is it.

So yeah, the first few months can be a little scary but most people fall into a groove after awhile and that's when the savings start kicking in.

Good luck and vape on.

I have the same problem. Bought my first 510 kit 12/10/12 and thought it wasn't bad at all. I'm now at $660 with ego twist batteries, a provari mini, ithaka on preorder, various attys, clearomizers, cartomizers, tanks, and juice that I have yet to even taste yet. I think I found my ideal setup, until ithaka that is, that I hope should keep me from buying any more random things that look shiny.
