Back in June I contacted a few vape shops. They told me they still sell the nautilus coils. I had bought plenty on sale before the mail ban. I'm sure I can last many many years.
I am going to stop helping people with vaping. They are on their own. I helped out a nurse-only to find out she was giving the stuff to her adult son. She lied about wanting to vape. She still smokes. He is only vaping because he doesn't have a job and you know "free stuff". I'm glad I gave her very used mod and a old aspire nautilus 2 tank.

She came back and asked for more free elqiuid. I said no! I told her its very expensive and if she wanted free eliquid she would have to buy me nicotine. "Tumbleweeds" :)

Unfortunately that is where we are today. As many on this thread can attest, I enjoy extracting Natural Tobacco flavors - so much so that I had to give most of it away (or waste it). But the current mailing bans have put an end to my "gifts" for those who wanted to try real tobacco flavors as opposed to synthetic tobaccos.
I will still extract my own NET flavors, but it appears as though once I've made my own e-liuids the rest will be dumped in the woods out back :(

Gonna try for a nap .............wish me luck.................steroids do do a lot of great thing for sleeping.
I really think its the virus. I have a supply of prednisone. It will give you a bit of energy while sick. When I was sick Dec 9 2020 I self medicated with steroids. A low dose of course. As a nurse its useless to go to ER (at that time) to get treatment. I was sick for a month and a half. However, I take immune suppressors since I'm immune compromised.

The virus is very serious but now the locals here are paying the price. A lot of them are in the hospital -they haven't had the vaccine and pimping their gofundme accounts. They don't realize how bad airborne transmission is. I feel safer at work than grocery shopping.

You guys have a great day

I finally made one of PJReid’s drink mixes. The fizzy sea breeze. I haven’t tried it yet but it used a ton of flavors I’ve never tried. I’ll be trying it once this tank is empty.

Here is my completed flavor organization. I know it won’t work for everyone but it works just fine for me. Some of the boxes on the lower right are just extra syringes and bottles and miscellaneous stuff. It feels good to have my newer purchases put away. I really don’t want to buy any more flavors and I certainly don’t need them. I typically buy 30 ml bottles but I have them from 15 ml all the way to 4 ozs. o_O Too much and I need to work my way through them to pare this down to just my favs.

    Good Morning Mixers.



    Just curious... when is the last time you actually bought vaping gear ?



    Head shops. At least that's what passes as vaping stores around here. All pod systems, or DTL atomizers. Nothing left here for MTL except my old gear. Thankfully REOS and ProVaris are durable.

    I actually bought myself a third Dovpo Abyss in blue this time as a present to myself but haven’t even bothered assembling it yet with so many reviews to do.

    Good for you standing your ground with her. That was a really crappy thing for her to do and then ask for more was too much.

    Some people take the mail ban more seriously than others. I recently sent out a couple things to people on the forum. I just wrap them and ship them. I’m not jumping through the hoops. I respect your stance on this but if I want to send someone a mod or a tank as a gift then I’m going to do it.

    That was me with a max of four recipes for years until I came back to ECF in 2019. :facepalm: Then the stocking and buying started. My goal is to just work through what I’ve got.

    That's a shame to dump them.
