    If you order 10 boxes...the little additional 10% off message will pop up. That'll make them $5.49/box before S/H. The FREE S/H applies if/when you have 13 boxes in your cart.
    Thanks,JC.:) I'd be tempted to do that if I could move some stuff I have for sale

    I’m waiting for the smoker to heat up so I can get the pork shoulders on. After that I’m going to break into my chefs order and mix the zing recipe. It sure is nice not being at work today even with rain in the forecast.

    If it is the Boogenshizzle Juicy Strawberry Cream, in addition to this being an old recipe (circa 2017), he tends to mix with low total flavor percents. You may need to adjust to suit your taste however I am fine with it as is.

    Although you've already received some good advice in regards to your question, I wanted to respond as well.

    As @IDJoel mentioned, heat is much more problematic with Nic than flavors however, that said, I live just north of Hades ( summer temperature wise anyway, lol ) so heat can impact flavors too, at least in my experience. I made the mistake of ordering some refills in August one year and I recall distinctly that the Bavarian Cream I purchased had almost no flavor while others seemed quite a bit less potent.

    Of course I could have just received a bad ( old ) Bavarian Cream and my subconscious went to work on the rest however I do believe there is a valid reason that manufacturers recommend storing your flavors in a cool dark place.

    Long story short, I think you will most likely be fine. My experience however has made me wary of ordering flavoring and/or Nic anytime the temperatures are expected to exceed 90 degrees. I should add that I'm not usually able to retrieve my mail immediately so it often sits in my mailbox for several hours. You would have a significant advantage there I believe. :)
    If you’re north of Hades, I guess I live downtown lol... it was still in the 70’s Christmas Day! It looks like we’ll blessedly have lows in the 70’s for the next week to ten days (putting a lot of trust in the weather peeps). It’s not a long list, so I think I’ll take a chance. We’re about at the end of our short time of lower night temps. I am lucky that my mail is delivered to the door/porch, but I hadn’t thought about the hot mail truck. Glad y’all pointed that out.

    Hummmm, once I did get a discount but never knew why so thank you for mentioning this. Another time I did not and should have I guess based on what you stated.

    As you mentioned, some sfts may be a good way to start.

    I mix a lot with dragonfruit. Maybe a dragonfruit, guava and strawberry mix? Try around 3% of each for starters, depending on brand and relative strength? Should be a good shake and vape.
    I was thinking something along those lines myself.... a little lime in there too, maybe a dash of vanillin....

    My stash of Spinners and similar are still functional, and slowly dwindling as I evangelize.

    And usually have an even dozen mods going, all different flavors, of course. :facepalm:

    3 mechs are also in the vapocalypse box as well as backups for everything in use. Never know, an EMP might fry all the electronics ;)

    When I first started vaping I always had three set ups going — 3 eGos, 3 CE and 3 juices. When I went to mechanicals, same thing — 3 mechs, 3 Kayfuns and 3 flavors. Next came the carto and history repeated itself. In late 2014, I bought my first box mod — a Vapor Shark rDNA40. This broke the three set up spell. Now I generally have ~six set ups all with different flavors. If I am trying new flavors, this does go higher. Never had more than one brand of analogs when I was smoking.

    Today I have plenty of mods and tanks to take me into the vapocalypse with one being an internal battery.

    Careful how you say that! :lol:

    ROFL.

    i think i found the reddit one, what's the other ones?
    E-liquid recipes or all the flavors. I find ELR easier to find notes/% etc , but check them both out and see which one works best for you. I do use both for recipe hunts.

    ATTN Yogurt experts!!!! I want to make this:

    Pear Frulata

    I have FLV Greek Yogurt and wonder if that might be a good sub (maybe even better sub) than the FW Yogurt, which I don't have and would rather not buy since I rarely mix yogurt juices.

    I forgot to mention that I did the #3 mix on the zing and didn’t do the butterscotch ripple. I’m going to go back and do the butterscotch later.

    I made the original with Butterscotch Ripple yesterday but I do think I will give it a nice, long steep. :D My #3 remix is delicious. Yesterday I also mixed up Lemondowskii, subbing the Lemon Trinity for all of the lemon in the recipe, including Fizzy Sherbet. I have high hopes for that one since I already love Lemondowskii.

    Good day all! Excited to use my new test tubes to make 8 ml testers of the flavors I haven’t opened yet. I plan on mixing at least 7 different recipes and 10 single flavors.
    Hoping to receive my nic shipment today but that’ll go straight into Boston rounds for freezing.
    Have a great day and happy Friday!

    well 3 sft's set aside, just 5ml's.... 10% at 90% vg
    Angel Cake (WF), Cookie (PUR), Yellow Cake (FW)

    I need more clean bottle, I have tons of empty bottles but I hadn't cleaned them out....
    I clean mine as soon as empty so I don't have that problem.:)
