DIY is the way to go (see signature below for my monthly vape cost)

Read all of the stickings in the DIY subforum regarding safe handling etc (100mg can cause serious damage if mishandled)

RTS vapes for nic, flavors, syringes for measuring, empty bottles (some 30ml plastic for everyday use, 5ml for experiments with flavors, vg/pg percentages, 120ml for making larger batch of favorite flavor)
Amazon for pg and vg and/or syringes (get a large catheter tip for your vg, pg will go through a 14ga)

a juice calc program - (my preferred excel based program is this one)

http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...e-calculator-added-quantity-calculations.html

a notebook to keep track of mixes (I made a great tasting one when I first started, can't remember percentages of different flavors to repeat it - DOH - so I just added a page to above program to copy all important info to an easily printable page - I'm old and like to print things (large print))

just my 2 cents

DIY all the way. I estimate that I spend on average 25 - 35 cents per day at most.

NIC Juice,
PG, &/or VG (to cut down the strength)
Flavoring.

There are a lot of good recipes online to start with.

I have been vaping all year on a 1 liter bottle of 24mg juice I bought from myfreedomsmokes and cutting it down with VG primarily (down to 9mg now), then adding Ry4 flavoring. It's really good IMHO, but everyone is different.

Good luck with it!

Wow! Great info in this thread.
I read most of the stickys in the DIY subforum and plan to read them all. I had a feeling there was more to this then watching a couple of videos on YouTube.

I have some more e-liquid on order as I wasn't really planning on making my own until I read how much money can be saved over the long run. I also don't know which flavors I would consider making on my own yet, other then a cherry/watermelon mix I make from off the shelf juices. I love that combo, but not for all day.

I'll have to look into rebuilding atty"s next.
Thank you for the insight.
