Are you including the cost of your base in this. I spend about $30 per year on my Nic base and another $20 or so on my VG. Pg is by the gallon and last a while. Flavors usually run about 2 or 3 orders a year about $20 to $30 each. Like said more if I am feeling adventurous or making for others but then they contribute to my flavor fund and reduce my overall cost.
Yes. I live about 5 min from DIY Flavor Shack here in Vegas. Get most of my supplies from them. I mostly vape my ADV so I buy those flavors in larger bottles. Have moved to 100mg nic so get better bang for my buck there.

Been buying there for awhile and they take good care of me. Also pretty much never have to pay freight so that saves me from either paying or adding something to my order to hit free freight.

Think hard!
I have flavors over 2 yrs. old. Same as day one.
Things rarely go south until they are all mixed together.

Nic in the Freezer.
Large Flavors in the Frig.
Rotating flavors in a cool closet.

Organics may be another Chapter.

Actually, I'm lucky to have built myself a wine cellar long ago that stays dark and 55F year round. I keep my juice and flavorings in there. The base isn't worth saving for what it costs but thanks, I WILL try the flavorings to see if they're any good. I must have 30+ bottles, probably about 30ml size, in there. I never go small....

Way too much again, most of my eliquids that I really like are $20+ a bottle and that only lasts a couple of days. Some of y'alls total weekly vaping I vape in a day.
Ha me to, unless I am working or doing something else, I can easily vape 20-30 ml of my favorite DIY in a day. Of course I am sub-ohming and doing some high temp TC and some of these tanks are juice hogs.
Heads up Cube winners:D your toodle puffing 60 ml of juice a month days are soon to be over:evil:You are going to be a juice sucking cloud blowing room fogger with a 200 ml a week juice habit as soon as you get your winnings in the mail:laugh:

Yeah since I quit buying ejuice all the time, the budget has opened up considerably! I buy larger bottles of flavor now, at least 30ml at a time (BCV has good prices on the 30ml size!), so I save on that. I've been doing the nic-stash thing for about a year now, got about 4 yrs' worth in the freezer, so I only buy another 120ml of that every couple months or so. And I haven't had to buy WTA for a while; I grabbed one last bottle during wholecigs' July 4th sale, to stash in the freezer; not buying THAT stuff has REALLY opened up the budget! Every couple months I grab another 16oz of PG, and maybe twice a year, another 16oz of VG -- both are about $3.95/16oz on amazon. Once you get all the basic supplies, DIYing makes vaping DIRT cheap... so you can buy more hardware. :D :lol: :D

Speaking of hardware... I have a friend on here, that has really gotten into RDA's. He doesn't do the clones, but REALLY espoused the virtues of the Petri RDA. Well, it was my first, so I went China. $12 from FT. I have to say, it may be the best $12 I've spent yet. And that giant bore drip tip is SO easy on my old eyes. It was TOUGH trying to drip into a little 510 atty watching TV. But it IS a juice hog with dual Ti Coils...

Time to refill the stm and I think one of the rug tarts is awake brb
I just refilled my STM as well. Of course now you guys got me in the vape closet calculating if I have enough juice mixed up to cover my two week preferred steep time. [emoji12]

Yep, my tanks are juice hogs too. I sub ohm and I'm playing with TC and my ohms keep getting lower and lower. Hell, when I was tootle puffing I could easily go through 15mls a day. I was a chain smoker, I'm a chain vaper now. Thankfully I've slowed down some since I started sub ohming so my juice consumption is just a little higher than it was when I was tootle puffin'.

I know.. :( The only downside. I already have the newest leading competitor to the TFV4, and the thing bubbles like there is a wedding party of scuba divers down there... I was shocked at how quick I could empty it. Between that and this Petri clone, I'm already feeling it.

Yeah one of the things I love about my Achilles is that they're as conservative on juice usage as cartotanks. The benefits of loving a tight draw... ;)
