Noobie mistake or acceptable idea?

I don't like filling cartridges and tanks and stuff. I drip, but only to try new flavors. So I bought a bunch of stardusts, which work well for me, and I filled them up with about eight different flavors that I like and I keep them in marked plastic bags until I want to use them. Is this a bad idea that will ruin the stardusts? I haven't noticed any problems yet, but I'm very new to this (not quite a month). I like the convenience of grabbing one or two already filled ones when I'm heading out for the day and also being able to switch flavors easily, but I don't want to ruin them by leaving juice sitting in them for weeks at a time. Once they are empty, I'll thoroughly clean them before filling again, but will sitting unused and full of juice damage them?

Thanks in advance for any answers you can give me.

I don't know if there's any effect of leaving the juice sitting in them for weeks at a time, but definitely keep them in a baggie, especially if you carry your extras with you....I had one filled and in a baggy in my handbag, and it leaked all over the inside of the baggy. Since then, the two that I have juice in are sitting upright on a shelf til I need them.

I would at least store them out of sunlight and keep in a cool place.

I keep them in a plastic box in a closed drawer. And yes, Zooker, I keep them in separate baggies I bought at Staples that are marked with the flavor and nic strength. I haven't had any leaking issues yet, but I've read enough posts from vapers who have to be cautious. Thanks for the reminder.

I do the same thing.....have at least 10 filled and ready to go. When I leave in the morning, I grab 2 or 3 of them for the day. I got a cool little toolbox from Lowes that has compartments on the lid....Stardusts fit in there perfectly, and it keeps them out of the light. Box has been perfect for me to organize all my stuff....
