Im not going to order anything else in fear of it not being here before 8/8
I am not going to order anything else either but it is 'cause I can't think of anything else to order at this point :D

I could be very wrong but I really don't think we will see many changes the day after 8/8. I think things are going to gradually change and the biggest change is going to be shortages because the vendors are going to have a hard time getting new products or are afraid their orders will be confiscated kinda like they were back when the FDA tried to classify our devices as drug delivery devices. I can't say that I can blame them though. I am thinking a lot of them lost a lot of money during that time. :facepalm:

I still have one package making its way to me from fasttech. It will really surprise me if something happens and it doesn't make it through to me. Only time will tell as to how all of this is going to work out. At this point it doesn't look good. All we can do is wait and hope one or more of the lawsuits will be successful and in the meantime keep contacting your representatives and let them know that you are watching them.

Yep, no new orders here mostly because I already have everything we need or want at this point.

But I also would prefer not to have more ordered tied up in what could become a bottleneck of customs inspections depending what the FDA actually does. I think most of our stuff will eventually make it through customs, BUT, if they do decide to be a PITA about it then people do need to understand their stuff could be tired up waiting for inspection for several weeks minimum and we will see some shipments refused entry for something that FDA didn't like. No matter what happens, we won't know anything on the 8th, but we will know by the end of next week. ;)

We aren't known as a group for being very patient. :shock: :lol: This could get interesting ! ;)

Nice to know I'm not the only one that uses this tactic, :D :lol: :lol: :lol: By the way, sending him to the basement to do something when seeing the mail lady's truck headed toward our house works too. I can often get the package (if its small) and come back in the front door before he sees what I'm got ;) :D

My hubby always gets the mail, he always says aren't you done yet ??? LOL

I get home from work first :evil: bwahahaha. Vape mail opened, oooh'd/aaah'd at, put away, packaging in the recycle bin, invoice filed. He is none the wiser. ;)

But I will say this, he is a very supportive non smoker. He knows how important this is to me and has gone through my two previous attempts to quit smoking with me. Let's just say I wasn't a :angel:.

My hubby commented on how much I have been spending this last month. He understands though and knows why I did. He is a keeper :wub:

Edit to add: He is a never smoker and non vaper.

My spouse is just starting to give me the stink eye about all my vaping packages coming in and I still have 5 to be delivered with 2 arriving
today. Yikes!!! :shock:

I think my wife is kind of glad about all my vape packages. Means she doesn't have to feel guilty about all the packages of yarn that arrive from all over the world.

Luckily my wife vapes as well, so she only shakes her head and asks why I "need" multiples of everything. :)

I used to spend a fortune on expensive cigars, guitars and wine, so $30 here and there and the odd expensive mod or tank is a drop in the bucket. Add the $7000 a year we used to spend on cigarettes, we are still waaayyyyy ahead of the game.

I have three packages coming although I thought I was done ordering. All of my remaining packages are from US vendors so I don't anticipate a problem. But I don't plan to place any more orders for a while. Yep, sure .... NO I really don't intend to.

View attachment 571945
OMG yes!!! I told hubby three times "ok, that's it I'm done" and every time I thought of one more thing I better get…just in case. My last bottle of nic juice coming tomorrow.

So this time I'm really done…I think ;)

Send them out of the house to run an errand when the mail is due.:D
You know I did that when I bought my nic. Made sure it arrived during hubby's three workdays. I also made sure I transferred my nic to its glass bottles and packed/stored it in the freezer while he was at work because he was freaking out about it getting spilt, splashing on one of the cats, breathing it while it was being pourred, etc etc. - you get the picture :rolleyes:. This way by the time he got home it was done and peace was restored :thumbs:

Same here and pay all the bills in my family which is a good thing because hubby would have a heart attack if he saw how much I spent getting ready for the dark ages. But really I cant complain. He was a smoker for over 20 years and he's happy I quit.

Hubby was just checking the chest freezer out in the garage (was looking to see if there was any ice cream out there). Said "it is full of vaping stuff!"

I told him it will help keep the freezer from running all the time :lol:
Just one more way to save money by vaping :lol: Lower electric bills :D
