I finally got my 100mg PG nic yesterday and I put 3 of the 4 bottles in the freezer.
I have a "storage" question. I thought I remember reading something about NOT storing PG nic long term in plastic because PG eats away at the plastic and the plastic will leach polymers into the juice. (or something like that) If that's true then why do they ship this in plastic bottles? Do I need to transfer these bottles over into glass bottles?

Not all ship in plastic. MyFreedomSmokes ships in glass bottles. Plastic is cheaper and probably safer to ship, but you are right, glass is best for long term storage, for the reasons you state. I use 50 mL amber glass bottles from specialtybottles.com. Eventually, aside from the health issues of polymers leached into ejuice, the juice can taste like plastic, depending on the plastic bottle. Plastic taste = plastic ingestion. Glass is best.

Plastic is safer to ship. Nobody wants the post man to die because he cleaned up a broken bottle of what looked to him like water or mineral oil and got it on his hands.

I would guess that all depends on whether or not some DIY dude found his wife banging the post man or not. LOL
