I'd love to have a safe room like that! Of course the stash would be hidden there as well. LOL I told hubby that if I had the money, I would have a house with lots of secret passages and rooms. :D
I've always had a thing for secret passages. As a teen, I spent many hours drawing floor plans with secret passages. One of them had a secret 3 story section hidden in the middle of the house and hidden rooms in a cave-like basement pool (have to go underwater and come up into a secret room).

How could anyone design a house without a secret room?!

i own a tiny condo 670ft,, and i have at least 2 places i could put in a secret room.........i have always thought about it a bit,,,,,,,,,,now i am thinking more about it because when i go to live on a boat i will still need a secure place for my nic & other items....i could easily hide it in 1 of those rooms in a tiny freezer.

Hope everyone has succeeded in acquiring whatever they felt like they needed to........
My current situation dictates that I have plenty now. No doubt more than enough. I didn't want to get into the green the way I did. But all is and will be okay.

With interest the way it is now the green doesn't grow the way it used to. I consider my vape supplies (enough for the rest of my life) as a very good investment at this point. Took a lot less green this year as it would have in the future so it is a win win situation.

My exact same thoughts. :)

I feel comfortable with my supply. I have been stocking up for years, little by little, so the few last minute details did not break my budget. But man, I am gonna miss vape mail!!!
Same here @clnire As soon as I found what worked for me I gradually added to my stock. As far as nic goes...I got into DIY early on so added a liter here and there to my freezer but the closer the deeming got the more anxious I got so ended up ordering 2 liters at a time times 2 :D I do believe I am pretty well set for the long haul.

Darn right.

Look at all of the taxes and inflation you avoided.

Believe I'm set Mike but do plan to continue buying whenever I spot something I like or that's on sale for a great price. I'll also be purchasing any worthwhile "new" innovative gear coming out of China and will be sure to present a "sincere" one-finger salute to the U.S. government every time I do. :thumb:

Yes but consider this; By the time I die, state/federal "tobacco" taxes/fees will inevitably have boosted the cost of liquid nic over $10K per liter, as a result the "Inheritance tax" on my estate could be quite steep. :lol:

Nicotine was my main concern due to possible availability and cost increases. Got over a million mg so I believe I'm set for the foreseeable future. Thought about getting another million mg but that would only entice me to black market it if the worst does happen so I didn't. Guess I'm getting soft in my old age.

Could well be. From where I sit buying 100mg liquid nic at $40/liter will be like having bought Microsoft or Intel stock for $0.10 a share back in the early 80's. The main difference is that back in the 80's nobody thought Microsoft or Intel would prosper so buying stock in those companies was considered a risky gamble. With liquid nic you're simply betting that state and federal governments are corrupt and greedy, so of course there's no real gambling involved at all, a sure bet if there ever was one. Worse case scenario you save maybe 10% by avoiding inflation, best case scenario you realize a 10,000 to 1 appreciation in value because of imposed "tobacco" taxes/fees, either way there's no downside. How many other investments can boast such a positive outlook? ;)

Yeah, my fear is that "nic" is the weak point. They can squawk about hardware all they want, but they wont stop it. They didnt stop it for other things they tried to regulate out of existence, just go to any college town for proof.

Nic is the one place they can put a dent in things. Without nic the hardware is irrelevant. I predict the day will come where you wont be able to buy bottled nic at any strength, it will be cartridges or nothing.

Oh, I have no doubt you'll be able to buy it, but it will be cash only, very expensive, and of dubious quality.

No. Already you'd be violating the first rule of hidden rooms: Silence is Golden.
Even members of an affinity group, people you'd trust with your life,
and close members of your own family aren't to be trusted except on a need to know basis.
