@*RJ* - What % do you use for the ABC, as a single flavor eliquid? IIRC it was you who posted it quite awhile ago.
I use 10% of aged bourbon cream as a single flavor. I crave that stuff. It’s addictive. I’m thinking about purchasing a large amount of it from a Canada.

Thanks! I thought you bought several 4oz. bottles....when we found those 2 Canadian websites. I got a 500mL bottle of it from the website DIY-ejuice.com, but the receipt has DIY Flavours at the top and DIY Flavours Inc (their corporate name) on their bottle. The website URL DIY-ejuice.com is only at the bottom of the receipt.

Good morning random folks :)Have you any plans today?

Yesterday I started rewicking. Plan to finish that today, as well as wrap some new coils because I've run out and several tanks are due for replacements. And I have a load of base ready so I'll mix some juice. Nothing new, just some 100 ml bottles of a couple that I only made 50ml bottles of.

This evening I'll continue digging for copper and cobalt, as part of my plan to crash the economy of an entire planet. At least one person here will understand what that's about.

I've been on Atkins diet for over 2 years. Meat is my main meal. This month I started 2 carb feast days a month (to carb load). I was vegan back in the early 80s. I ended up with anemia. After 3 years I was super sick and anorexic from being vegan. I applaud those who can do it.
My whole goal is to be healthier so I don’t want to cause my body further issues. I’ve got a lot to learn, and I doubt I stay perfect at it. When my Dad grills steak, which I do love, I’ll have to eat it.

The healthiest I’ve ever been just a few years ago is when I kept up with a consistent macros of carbs/fat/protein of 35/10/45 or thereabouts (my fitness pal was useful), ran long distance, and lifted weights. I had so much energy, had muscle, and was very fit. I just slowly got out of it and I’ve gained weight and do no exercise. All that work and I blew it.

I bought 4 and I’ve got 2.5 left but I make 200 ml at a time so it goes fast. And I vape a lot.

It's Real Flavors - Aged Bourbon Cream flavoring. It used to be readily available in the US, but no more. A couple of Canadian vendors still have it though.
Here is where the ABC is now made and I recommend buying it here as it seems to have the cheapest price. You can change to US dollars at the top right and shipping will be a little high.

That IS where I bought my 500mL bottle Jan. 4, 2020. I pulled out my receipt and it says DIY Flavours at the top of the receipt, with the same graphic as shown on their website. At the bottom of the receipt (where I didn't look before) it says, "Thank you for your purchase": and then their website link below it for DIY-Ejuice.com. I got it for $70.30CAD + $17CAD S/H. I used a Facebook coupon code. US price was $56.24 - coupon code for $2.81US off + $16.18 US S/H = $69.61US total shown on my CC statement.

ETA: Found that DIY Flavours Inc is their corporate name. Guess that's why it's at the top of their receipt (without the Inc) and on their bottles, too. Yet their website is DIY-Ejuice.com and is also shown on their bottles. That's kind of odd, to me. Maybe there was already a DIYFlavours.com. ;)

stuck in a squishy pod called my brain
@kross8 I really appreciate the advice but I have to live my own life and I had a mother who was ALMOST as uh, advice giving as you and sometimes you rub me the WRONG WAY for that reason.

I do NOT want to buy or rent a cop car. NOT EVEN A TINY BIT. NOR do I want to be a billionaire or invest much or ANY of that. My dad became a millionaire back when it counted and I had several "opportunities" or even "Shoves at by my dad" at stabs to make me a KEPT WOMAN. It was pretty terrifying and I felt really lucky to escape to college unmolested because I would be bored as sitting on my toilet 23 out of 24 hours as a "Rich man's" wife. I was not particularly happy growing up and I am happily moving to the poorest state in the union with my little hobbit husband.

Guess what I got three offers on the house today, and I am NOT even accepting the "best" one (albeit they are not far apart although we will make plenty for the next house which is FINE with me.) This is because one offer reminds me of a used mattress salesman and I hate it (and the guy) and the other one is clearly a pair who LOVED the house and threw ALL their cash at it in the vain hope they'd get it. If it was a 50K difference, maybe it would be a bigger deal. But 500? I seem to usually be provided by my creator with what I need, and I give back, toys to kids I work with that kind of stuff.

Really, instead of your diet or how RICH you can be, why not focus on giving something back to your community such as volunteering and whatnot. Because I kind of LIKE you (like I like my mom) but I LOATHE hearing about my mom's newest diet, her investments, etc. I just really DO. Also she is always bossing me and I HATE IT SO MUCH. It is the worst. She always frames it as advice. It never is. It never goes away either, just morphs! Oh if you won't buy one lease one! BILLION DOLLAR HOUSES.

I don't NEED your advice neither money, keto or leased fake cop cars are gonna make me at ALL happy. No offense. Just live YO life. I do not want yours. You can also, if you do like giving advice you know do a local library hour on safety for kids, something that matters more than EXACTLY HOW MANY PENNIES extra can I get for my abode.

I am also MORE than doubling my money as it IS. Buy low, fix, sell high.

You became a cop car against mattress guy.

As for my community charity.. My community would very much disagree with your impression of me.. Other traders would too as I advocate to share their profits... And the most desired way is when you are not recognized as the donor.

My posts about the market is to let anyone interested or in need of more income (like retired people.. Or any form of limited income know they can "work from home for themselves)

You rub me wrong often .. No offense.

Nobody sees the world the same.. Communication & opportunities between the vast world's is what creates futures for all.

Even though the ingredients list of ABC shows only Vegetable Glycerin and Natural Flavors...does anyone else who's tried it think there's also ethyl alcohol in it? Sure seems like it to me, from the drop or 2 I tried of the 100mL mix I just made. Going to shake the heck out of it and let it sit uncapped...to see if the familiar sort of whitish froth appears in a ring on the bottle, at the top of the eliquid, after the bubbles pop.

Just checked the website and it says it "Contains NO PG, dyes, alcohol or added sugar". But a flavoring could already contain it, right? Also, I noticed it says that it's Made in the USA. The bottle label says it's bottled by some other company for them. So I guess that could be right.

Right I agree @kross8 we don't always agree and that is the internet. I don't know everything about you an etc. It was my thoughts based on my interactions thus far. I meant no offense but also, you can rub me wrong at times. It's just at times I feel you can be a bit pushy.

Again it's just my opinion and I do want to say there are lots of things I like about you.

OMG we are accepting an offer on the house! We got 4 in less than 24 hours. We did not accept the engaged couple, although it might have been nice. However, like our offer was 25 K above our asking price so we really.... Had to. Hopefully the appraisal comes in okay although there are some similar comps in the neighborhood. The place is basically brand new. I think it will go.

But now it's the nerve wracking part until closing.

No cop cars needed :D

Some of you know the hell we went through with that house and my husband remediating it, and then the great flood and everything being torn out and well...………...I I let the husband pick because it is HIS house in a way and like, HIS decision. He went with the highest offer.

    I just exercise to try to maintain some level of stamina. I’ve just about given up on getting rid of my stomach fat. I just can’t or won’t do the no/low carb thing. I know that even if I do it for a little while that I won’t stick with it and to me if I can’t make a lifetime change then it’s just another fad diet. I also have arthritis in at least one leg and the exercise helps keep my legs from aching.

    OMG we just signed a contract for 25K over the asking price! We had four offers this am. I really hope we did the right thing (I had to let the husband finally decide, he did most of the work, twice. LOL.

    We kinda wanted to sell it to this newly engaged couple. They wrote us a letter though and unfortunately it contained the phrase "Fur baby" although it was otherwise sweet. It was also the lowest offer by a fair amount.

    Sometimes you got to be grim and ruthless. I have to think of my OWN new home and all the work the hsubeand put into this one and me.

    Anyway hopefully it goes smoothly. Buying a house makes you schizophrenic but selling one gives you severe depression and anxiety.

    I think we will be okay on the appraisal but we will have to see I guess. I mean everything is BRAND new and there are similar comps in our neighborhood.

    No cop car needed.:D. But the guy might be a cop for all I know.
