Started with an over-priced e-cig kit from a mall kiosk...it was enough to let me know that this could work!
Then the discovery of ECF and it was on like donkey Kong!
I don't regret buying the expensive kit, it got me started off the real thing, priceless.

Hey Cheech, Buddy!!! Did you set yourself up with some half off Nicoticket, I hope???
Good to see you here -- I still have not had a coil go bad so I can try the rebuild!! They are indestructible!
I did something similar, ($20 for ONE knock off CE4....crooks....
) but it too gave me a clue as to how successful this would be for me. 
The rest of the crazy spending those first few months was all just crazy spending.
Nanny my friend!
I have so much liquid now my fridge looks like a mad scientist's cabinet!
Those coils just keep going and going! What a value.
Looking forward to a report when one finaly gives up the ghost.

I wish my starter kit was that cheap...I was robbed.
Oh no, that was just a tank if I wanted to replace it because they told me "our custom designed batteries (knock off eGo batts with the store logo printed on them....) will only fit our custom designed tanks (lies...all lies)". A set with two tanks, two "custom designed batteries", a charger and instruction manual was $150.
Hey, fool me once shame on you...
It worked though! And once I found ECF I was shocked at how cheap everything seemed in comparison.

Years go by
Blu Cigs - stopped smoking for a year
A year and a new girlfriend later started smoking again
Then a Kayfun lite Clone V2 with an extra air intake & a Nemesis 18650 mod (June 2014)
Cloupor DNA 30- broke after 2 months

I starting "really" vaping in June 2014 and to think a nemesis and a kayfun lite clone started it all. Vaping technology has improved so much someone can now start with an istick 30 or 50 watt & a subtank mini and....
No batteries purchases nor research, ohms reader, battery charger, kanthal, precision tool kit, wicking material worries (cotton, boiled or not?rayon? silica?steel mesh?), nor hours of youtube, ECF, or other website research is required to get great flavor and vapor production.

8-o
Okay, I don't feel so bad...first kit with 2 cig batteries, case, manual and ten cartridges was $70.
Thank you for that!
I chalked it up to an expensive learning curve

Exactly!!
And I found Nicoticket a few weeks later which didn't help with the spending one bit.
Haus by Mistic at Walmart... then a Puff eGo at a convenience store, then another convenience store eGo-T. Finally made it to a B&M where I grabbed a Kanger T3'D and a Smok Aro VV.
That was 128 days ago.
Today, I have 2 of the eGo kits left, an iStick, 6 x 18650 mechs (2 are telescoping), 1 x 26650 mech, 1 x 18350 mech, 2 x homemade box mods, 1 x puck mod, 4 drippers, 3 rta, 4 clearos, and enough juice to float a city.
And, one burning question: what should I buy next?

Dare I say it?
Reo. *nods*
And....
A new enabler is born!!!
Naw...not new. There was always a dog pile of people chanting "Reo" long before I'd get a chance to do it myself!!
Standard ego battery and wickless ce5 clearomizer. Now using this beauty.

Well, I'm happy that this time it WAS you!!

That's so true but truthfully, I'm so glad they do/did! I got turned to Nicoticket (due to my own research) which then the enablers turned me to Reo and I skipped hundreds of dollars of in between juice and mods.
You wouldn't know that by all the stuff I've ordered in the last week. I more than made up for it with a new REO, 2 Nuppin's and MORE Joose! Then batteries and a few tips and......

I'd bypass all the other crap/shiny crap/don't waste the learning curve crap and just buy a Reo or another Bottom Fed device (Reo's certainly aren't the only game in town anymore) along with one or two HIGH END Quality RDA's and be done spending money.
Unless you're rich or sumptin...
