I am sure if I wanted to, I could go back threw all my receipts and e-mails and total up everything I have bought sense I bought my first ego's around March of 2013. I don't think I really want to know. :unsure:

I'm lucky, my wife doesn't say anything about my buying. She vapes also, although she isn't into the hobby part as I am. As long as she can pay off the CC each month, she is happy, so I kinda have to watch what I do there. I keep mum when she comes home with a new purse, or shoes, which isn't that often really. So it's all good. :)

with my husband it's guns or crossbows or swords or knives, general weaponry in general... he wants a drone, but is foregoing the thought at current moment in favor of a gun he's been wanting..

Honestly, I think purses or shoes would be cheaper! Haha.

I have all my Provape receipts and even a couple from my local B&M, where I've purchased at least a couple Provari's. Our funds are completely joint, so I don't hide anything I purchase ever. As to my vape purchases, Charlie never gives me any grief. He's delighted I'll be celebrating 6 years completely cancer stick free this July. He never smoked and he certainly didn't like that I did. So vaping has been a great thing for us both. Yes it has.

Yes, purses, and shoes, are cheaper, at least the ones my wife buys are. LOL.

Lol.. that's good! For some reason I never got into all that, with me you get what you get. I have 5 pairs of shoes, two dress shoes, two sandals, and one pair of running shoes, and one purse that goes with everything and anything.

I get the majority of my clothes from thrift stores - and always have. I have no problem wearing last year's styles when it means I save 100 dollars or more per outfit, and I prefer more classic styles anyway..

My husband says that's because i grew up with money so I look at things like that differently than others, because other people see things such as clothing as a status symbol, whereas I see it as necessities and no more..

I suppose for a woman, I'm just weird. Lol..

Well my black 2.5mini just bit the dust, the positive tab fell off. Just sent Bill an email. Has anyone used the repair service since Provape closed?
I just sent one in to him last week. So far, everything is good. He gave me an estimate and a ticket number to use if I wanted to go further. He let me know he has the Provari, but I haven't heard any updates. He said in the first email, he would let me know the cost so I could paypal him to go ahead and make the repairs.

@The Ocelot I love that vase shaped DT with the hole in the middle in that photo in the link. Anyone know where I could find some of those?

That's a donut shape by Trippy Tips. I got mine from the classifieds. Several vendors carry Trippy Tips (and they have their own site), but sometimes it can take some searching to find the shape/color you want.

Oops, I didn't see this before I posted. Page 3...hmmmm. I've seen it in pink before. Actually, I've seen many of the others before too, either on Etsy or another site. I almost bought the mushroom.

I'm getting a go daddy advertisement saying the domain is free to purchase every time I try to search it..

Can someone link me?

I have 3 pairs of shoes. My everyday shoes (simple flats), good tennis shoes, and fun tennis shoes (silver and sparkly). I used to have heels, but can't wear them so high anymore. Need to get one pair of low black heels, I suppose.

Purses, I have a bunch. But, that's only because none of them are quite perfect. So, I keep trying.

Driptips OTOH are a whole different story! I can just imagine how many I might have if I liked to make a bolder statement!

I can't wear any kind of heel at all..(I have serious nerve damage in my legs) not even low heels, so a find on a good pair of comfortable flats is a keeper for as long as the shoes last.. I have one black pair and one light brown on dress flats..

I love to see the drip tips, but haven't made an investment as I'm always worried what i buy will be the wrong thing.. I hate wasting money, and most people don't say things like "this drip tip will fit a kayfun"

I think the first time I see that i will load up.. until then, I worry!

How old is it?

I have all my Provape receipts and even a couple from my local B&M, where I've purchased at least a couple Provari's. Our funds are completely joint, so I don't hide anything I purchase ever. As to my vape purchases, Charlie never gives me any grief. He's delighted I'll be celebrating 6 years completely cancer stick free this July. He never smoked and he certainly didn't like that I did. So vaping has been a great thing for us both. Yes it has.
My DH quit a year before me with the patch and is very happy vaping did the trick for me. He know I spent a lot of money getting set up but hasn't asked exactly how much. I take care of all the financing and have kept us debt-free all our married life so he knows I won't go overboard.

Lol.. that's good! For some reason I never got into all that, with me you get what you get. I have 5 pairs of shoes, two dress shoes, two sandals, and one pair of running shoes, and one purse that goes with everything and anything.

I guess I'm weird with you then. I'd rather visit garden, vape, knitting yarn or computer shops. I either make my clothes or go to Walmart.

I just sent one in to him last week. So far, everything is good. He gave me an estimate and a ticket number to use if I wanted to go further. He let me know he has the Provari, but I haven't heard any updates. He said in the first email, he would let me know the cost so I could paypal him to go ahead and make the repairs.
What did he say is the service cost?

When I was younger, much younger, I used to love to walk on my tiptoes. It felt really good to my calves. But, after decades of working on my feet and a couple of injuries, I just can't do it anymore. Low heels would probably be ok though, I think. Haven't tried.

Kayfun should take any 'regular' drip tip, right? Anything made for a 510/901/808 atty. Of course, drip-tips do very ever so slightly in actual size, no matter what size they say it is. It just takes a fraction of a millimeter to throw it off.

I hate any shopping that can't be done online, especially clothes shopping! Except bookstores.
