Well none of the prizes I marked as desirable were ejuice, because of my problem with VG -- so if I won any ejuice at all, I'll be PIFing it -- no reason someone else couldn't enjoy something really tasty. I'm really jealous of all y'all that can vape the good stuff from nicoticket and HHV, but my lungs demand I stick to 84% PG or thereabouts. I'm just happy they'll let me vape anything, after all those years of smoking, plus the asthma! :facepalm:

What a happy surprise; I totally stopped even thinking of it, and then blam, there it is. :D Kinda like buying a lottery card and forgetting about it, then finding out a couple wks later it's actually a winner! :lol:

Andria

HHV will do 90%PG even 80%PG and will do double shots of flavor

I still haven't heard anything from Atmomixani about my prize don't know if it was sent or anything I appreciate winning and them supplying to this awesome contest but wish I had a tracking # so I could keep an eye out packages go missing quite often in chicago so I usually stalk the mail carrier lol

I hear ya ChiBear, we do too, out here in the desert NW of Phoenix, higher and cooler than down in the valley (grin). But we've got a drive to the PO so it's easier on the truck and diesel to just watch a tracking# - most don't give us that tho. I was thrilled that Vaping Zone shipped both packages (2 box mods, tank in one, and 5x30ml juice choices gift in another YESTERDAY) and so I'll be watching - those were from the 2nd runners up group goodies... hang in there, I'm sure they're working hard to get the things ready and out the door! but would be nice to have an update occasionally as to what's up, too, no?

I'm sure it's a grind for them cause they probably have hectic lives outside of the forum like most of us

AND different time zones too from us in the states! it all factors in, I'm sure they're not lagging but definitely chuggin' away! The good things in life are always more fun with 'looking forward to' as well as the receiving and using part (grin).

SHAME ON YOU...lol...supposed to only have 90 days to get inspection and new registration...you snuck through!

We're doing that in Arizona - saves us oodles on the registrations we pay (to So. Dak.)... supposed to be in the state 6 mos. only, if more, then they want you to become registered in Arizona, but there's so many RVers in and out all year that it's hard for them to follow up and make sure who's more long term and who's short term staying in the state... We've got a 'home base' in South Dakota with mail forwarding service, bank, voting, registrations and drivers licenses - and use AZ as our 'winter RV Park' but we come and go... our registration is far cheaper in SoDak than here in AZ, plus the other stuff... we've got a 4-wheeler that is registered in SoDak but never been there (grin).. it's stored in our shed when we're gone and only used in Ariz.... kinda boggles the mind to think how any government can actually keep track of all of this stuff on anyone coming and going - ??? kinda like AZ's OHV sticker on our desert vehicles, $25 for who knows what but it allows them out on BLM land and on gravel roads, etc. (off highway stuff) - and supposed to pay for enforcers to monitor the traffic - but in 10 yrs have we ever seen anyone out there doing any enforcing? nope... so why bother purchasing the sticker? it's most likely going to pad someone's pocket!! lots of stuff like this going on lately - they dig into our pockets more and more and for what do they give us back for it ? nada....

Kills me that we have to go through emissions testing here. I understand the need, with the huge number of cars in an area this size, but then get choked on the black soot pouring out of so many monster trucks that are popular on the highways here.

I hear ya (from TX) - I lived 40+ years in So.Calif. and dealt with the same things there - no one in gov. could decide who would do the inspections on smog stuff at the border, after the VOTERS asked it be done before coming into our state.... argh!! (nothing I ever vote for ever passes or the guys wins the election....)

We had a choice when we retired and wanted to be fulltime RVers, of which states we could 'move to' and make our home base... Oregon, Texas or So.Dak.... David (and others) wrote the programs for TurboTax and Quicken Products through Intuit his employer, so he was aware of the best deals out there in which state for our 'retirement and our RVing'.... So.Dak. was the winner! $125 for registration/plates for our truck and 5th wheel, no state inheritance tax, no state sales tax on truck we bought, just a 3% luxury tax or some such when we registered it in So.Dak. (I type it that way So.Dak. to differenciate from SD or San Diego CA where we lived and David grew up down in Chula Vista for our family elsewhere in the states)...

We were done with the yearly emissions testing - our old Pinto wagon never passed the 1st time, nor 2nd.... our newer Honda Civic wagon did tho (yeah) once we could afford something better! So, TX was out of our picking just on that requirement, then we added the fact they wanted to see us and our rig everytime we needed new plates/tags also - nope, not doing that! We go to So.Dak. once every 5 years to update our Drivers Lic's - and send them a check for the tags when needed.... used our Passports for the DL requirements, we had needed them when we drove up to Alaska to spend the summer and check things out up there, visit my best friend from our school days in Seattle, etc.

so I hear ya - been there done that!

About 3 hrs. I have been having a bad time sleeping lately, if it weren't for my medication I would fall asleep standing up at work.
I finally got a few hours, thinking maybe a nap later after mail gets here (must be awake for vape mail) and it starts to rain.

Well, I just checked on my vape mail tracking#s and my ECF prize(s) - (2 box mods + tank) has come into Congress, AZ - so when they get off their lunch break, I'll go up and see if it's in my PO Box - most likely not cuz they're officially closed on Sat. but there's a possibility they might have sorted the mail early on - we'll see... otherwise, I'll pick them up on Monday with Vaping Zone's juices that were also sent from Vaping Zone and due in then (grin) - too fun!!
this waiting!!

there will be an end to it for you guys too, eventually, but can you imagine the jobs flushdraw and smokey joe have on their hands sorting out all the remaining gifts with people asking for them? then notifying all the givers of the gifts as to where to send everything? humongous job! I'm thankful it ain't me doing all that!!
and the weekends factor into that notifying too - so then it's up to the vendors to gather the stuff and mail it - some just takes time to get done is all.... while we wait and talk and share and laugh and such together here(grin).

guess I better get dressed before going up to the Post Office .... been sitting here 3-4 hrs putting together an email with pictures of our San Diego Trip to see a graduation for my sister and mom - way too long, way too many pictures sent, but hopefully they'll be able to have something to do as it rains up there (te he) - beautiful sunny dry day down here!! lol

Yup and the ones it really was passed for, was to eliminate all the south of the border vehicles, that are the worst to drive amongst - peee-U do they stink! but into our country they come by the hoards!!
