I stick to only two of their flavors, which are Menthol fresh and Sub Zero. Both of these juices never require any steeping and are great right out of the box. I can't say the same for every flavor they sell though, as some do require a period of steeping. Unfortunately, any juice that I do not like right away never usually gets better with steeping.
I suppose how much you vape should be considered. I go through about 8ml per day, so it would cost more than cigarettes for me to use pricey juice. I have found a few choice juices that are in the $15 - 20 per 30ml range, and get them once in a while as a treat. They would include Halo Tribeca, Menthol Ice and Malibu, as well as Mr E-liquid Mr E's Menthol, Ahlusion Caramel Wildwood and DIY Flavorshack Holy Holy Grail RY4. That would be my limit, but my main vapes are DIY at about $1.50/30ml.
If I vaped less per day, a more costly juice wouldn't be of much consequence. Even then, I think $20/30ml is the highest price I could accept. Finding tastes you like at a reasonable price is worth the hunt as far as I'm concerned. I plan on vaping a long time, and the savings add up to a vacation every year!

We are similar here with a 9% sales tax. I find it interesting to see what the going cost is for local stuff across the country. I am not sure if our store is repackaging or not. It looks like it to me, since bottles have same type of tops. But I bought from another store with same type of top on their small bottles. Yes, I can tell the difference from that store as one bottle I bought was from the manufacture and glass 15ml. It tastes better than the 10ml plastic which looks like my other store bottles.
I am not sure where my limit will be yet. Not a heavy user except with this last juice. It is the 15ml glass bottle and I am hitting it hard for it tastes so good. LOL I can very easily see where this can be more expensive than smoking. But just like anything price is related to quality most times but not all times. I wonder what is the most expensive juice out there?
I've been buying my favorite juice by the 120cc bottle. I figure buying it in bulk like that brings the price down some.
Normally it costs $75 for 120ml, but, the way I save is when I see that my bottle is half full or less I start looking through my emails from the website I buy it from because they're always doing discounts.
I don't think I've ever paid full price for it. I usually get in on 30% or more off deals and stock up on a couple bottles (240ml) at a time. That's how I always have my favorite juice on hand, and end up paying FAR FAR FAR less for it than I could ever possibly find anywhere.
At full price it costs:
$12 for 15ml
$20 for 30ml
$75 for 120ml
For me with a 30% off:
$53 for 120ml = $13 for 30ml = $7 for 15ml Thats a price I can live with

I also vape about 8ml/day and used to rip a pack of American Spirits a day for over a decade.
They were close to $10/pack when I quit 5 years ago.
Based on my price break down above, I vape about $4/day in juice.
Its not a huge savings from the price of butts when I quit, but I bet they're now up to $14/pack so thats $10 a day I'm saving which is pretty huge in my eyes.

Completely agree. Costs more through trial and error trying to find something you like than to pay more for a quality juice one really does like.
I personally used to like giving my local vape shops my business, even if the prices might be a little higher than I can buy online.
Just seems like their trying to stay in business, some struggling to make a buck, and there's really not a huge markup in brand name juice (i don't think anyway, but I could be wrong).
The problem I run into is the juice available in my neck of the woods seems to be low quality juice, so I'm back to buying online, sad really, I wish I could help the locals more.

Where do you usually go for juice?I always hit up River City Vape, or if I'm in Calgary and visiting, I hit up Evolution Vape. Thats where I got my Blind Tiger Jungle Kitty 50ML for $25
River City. They recently dropped all juice prices from 18 to 16 for 30ml. So far they're the only place really in Edmonton who carries Dark side for me to buy without waiting for Canada Post
I have a spreadsheet of about 80 or so e-juice vendors (originally snagged here somewhere...but I've added quite a few). The average price among the vendors I have is about $0.66/mL. Since it's an average, and there are some vendors hawking their wares at $1.00/mL, many are considerably cheaper. However I use it as a guideline to determine if an e-juice is "pricey" or not.

(FYI only - many links may be dead and/or prices inaccurate - I haven't tested each one and it's an ongoing work in progress!)
I'm relatively new to vaping, so I don't have a lot of experience with e-juices yet. I currently vape only around 2 mL a day though. So even with the pricer e-juices, I'm not spending much.

I find lots of really good juices for between $7-$10 for 30ml. but sometime i'll spend the extra on something spectacular. None the less one of the reason i started to vape was for it to be cheaper then smoking. so i vape 5ml a day when i use to smoke i spent $5-$7 day( a pack). so i tend to make sure that whatever i buy is cheaper then what i would have been spending smoking.
if you like 100% vg juices. up n vape is $7 for 30lm, they use to be 5$ for 30ml. either way, still some of the cheapest good juice you can get.
And you can find more juices their prices using the link in my signature.

My limit at the moment is around $10 for 30 ml. MBV's GWAR line is just slightly above that, but my daughter and I really like a couple of the flavors, so it is worth it for us. There are a couple of vendors that we like that charge a little more at regular pricing, but we buy the flavors we like from those vendors when they are on sale.
We are very fortunate that there are quite a few vendors in our price range who have flavors that we enjoy very much. My daughter and I live together and share living expenses. The vape budget, by mutual consent, comes out of my retirement income.
Thanks to ECF and the members here, I have found vendors that supply quality products that do not break our budget and that I have no qualms about recommending to others.
