    I'm familiar with the town/city of Marlton, but suprisingly, that's a bar that I never heard of.. This is all back in the late 70's, maybe it wasn't there yet? I didn't live there long (enough), only about 2 years, and I had then about as much friend making ability (or intention) as I do now, so I didn't really know anybody except our neighbor.

    You don't have to decide everything right now, and nothing needs to be perfect. But getting some flavored juice asap will definitely get the ball rolling.

    If you are even considering DIY, what you need to stock up on is the nicotine base. It is already hard to get in some states, and soon it will be taxed at a draconian level--enough to make the cost of a liter of 100mg/ml close to $3000.

    Haha. It's not a bar. It's an ice cream place.

    See video at the bottom of this blog post...

    As a general task, DIY is not hard to do, per se. Where it becomes more difficult is trying to make recipes with multiple flavors (complex flavor profiles) because you have to use the right percentage or each flavor in the recipe. But ECF and other sites have recipes that you can try as a starting point. Also, some flavors and flavor profiles will require what is misnamed "steeping", which simply means just letting the juice sit for days or weeks before it tastes as it should taste, shaking it from time to time.

    For me, DIY is super easy because I am satisfied with 1-flavor recipes an dnone of my flavors need steeping. But for newbies that are only only satisfied with complex flavors, it will take time. However, the way things are and the way things are going, we have limited options as vapers, unless you are satisfied with vaping tobacco flavors on a cigalike (because that is where things seem to be heading this far).

    I'm used to one flavor...butterscotch. I never had interest in anything complex.

    Then DIY could be a breeze for you as it is for me. I only mix 2 juices and each are 1-flavor juices.

    If you plan on DIY for the long term, you'll need to buy your nic and seriously consider keeping it in a freezer in glass bottles. The link I gave to the blog post with the video should give you links to what you need. The rest can be bought later.

    Thanks! I may PM you this weekend!

    Haha. It's not a bar. It's an ice cream place.

    I know that place very well. Most of my kids have and do work there. I currently live in Shamong NJ. It's getting to be very slim pickings out here. Popies vape shop in Mt. Laurel sells Butterscotch Reserve, which may be to your liking. They are in the plaza across from Trainos liquor store off church street. There is also Gorilla vapes in Lumberton. They make their own juice in house and still deal with flavors. However most of the juices I sampled had a very chemical taste and smell to them. As for me, I am going the DIY route from now on. New Jersey has made it almost impossible to find juices that I like, and when I do find one the companies that make them go out of business or stop shipping here. Nitelite, Space Jam, and now it looks like Cuttwood is on the way out. So my first order is in and as soon as the snow clears and I get my packages I'll be attempting to make my eclipse, gold, and tobacco trail clone juices. It is truly a shame that these businesses have to deal with the ever increasing bureaucracy that will only end with vape shops going out of business and their customers left with fewer options. At least I'll be able to make my own as an option for me and my friends.

    I hope this helps you out with your choices in the area.

    I keep using this Zip Code checker on site after site. It always says thy can deliver, but when I go to check out, they change their mind.
    I live in MA. That ...... Charlie Baker banned all flavors however some places will still ship to the "damned"! I will send you a dm.
