A swap club sounds awesome .. Maybe Burnie could chime in with some ideas. The PIF section? Which I have never been too :laugh: But this is a good idea and will all of the juice buying going on here, it is inevitable that there will be some we don't like and wouldn't mind giving away.

FYI, Five Pawns Castle Long Reserve was the first high end premium juice I tried ever ever ... Nikki didn't like it. I do love Gambit however :)

There you go! I LOVE Castle Long, and I know lots of other people who love it, but it isn't your taste!

So, if you were to be able to send it to someone who's never tried it, and get something back you do love, it's a win-win for everyone!

Nikita, I just have to share with you, NLV gold. I think you will really like it. It's on sale $10.50 for 30ml
I just tried it today foob and am in love.
The bluberry beach is awesome, so is the butterscotch, caramel reef, and tappulles.
I love them all. I reccomend trying some while they are on sale.
Was all set to pull the trigger until I saw "65% PG and 35% VG". DARN!

It was/is freezing (literally) so I made a really hearty chicken soup.

Currently 4°F outside. Walked my dog earlier and his paws were hurting after about 5 mins outside and it was 15°F then.

I'm vaping some Mr. Cookie now on in a KF v4 with a .13Ω ni200 coil @ 18w on Nikki's fav mod (rDNA40) :D

I love the rDNA! :blink: ... :laugh:

Aww, you gotta get your dog some snow booties or something :unsure: It is beastly over here as well, and the winds were so bad that I temporarily lost one of my garbage cans :blink: I went was looking all over both sides of the lawn, around the back of the house and I couldn't find it :cry: ... Then I noticed it was belly up on my neighbors lawn at the other end of the cul-de-sac :facepalm:

The CLR was actually sent to me by a friend who was also IN LOVE with it ... but I wasn't feeling it though. Maybe if I tried it today I might feel differently because I also used to hate custards, and now I like them lots. :)

My momma, always told me I was special :laugh:

I have no idea why I got the upgrade though.
Pretty clever marketing if you ask me- send out a few free/upgraded bottles to a few good folks who're active on a popular thread in a popular forum and *POW* watch the sales shoot through the roof!

Maybe, maybe not. I DO know I ordered 2, 30mls from them and likely would not have except for the enticement of possibly getting in on an unannounced promotion. And to add insult to injury, I didn't use the 15% code. Oh well. Nobody to blame but me.

I sure it was something along those lines although I don't believe that Dr. Juice knows anything about this thread, or that I even know Nailz personally .. but, I am thinking that they saw Nailz comments on my review and that is why the sent him an upgrade. That is the only thing I can think of that makes sense because I do know they have read the comments on VC at least once.

But how did you forget to use the coupon? :ohmy: Even I waited specifically until the coupon was active to place an order.

Which flavors did you get? I vaped Delish all day yesterday, about 1 1/2 tanks full and it was so good. :banana:

Welp, I finally got a taste of good ole Lenola Cream :D I had to build my Taifun GT 2 clone for review today, so into the tank it went! I totally get why Crocky cannot describe this, but whoever said they taste banana, I say "what you talking Willis?" :glare: ..

The best I can describe it as this moment is a citrus-y cream something ... Lemon cream cookie custard pie? :unsure: It is for sure good, but also rather intriguing because you will definitely keep trying to figure out what it is. I am happy I am not tasting any banana, as I have had a lot of banana juices over the last year including my own DIY.

    My taste buds suck and I can taste fresh banana on it, I think that is the most foremost flavor to me, but now you say lemon, I do taste that too, but not as strong as the banana though :laugh:

    I definitely get a fresh, almost green banana from Lenola Cream. Thought for a minute there I got some coconut but now not so sure. Which is okay, I'm choosy about coconut and the only other banana I vaped was absolutely the worst, most vile concoction I've ever experienced hands-down. Just dreadful.

    On a happier note, yesterday I forgot the coupon code when I ordered a couple bottles of juice from Dr. Juice. But Jeremy the owner said he'd take care of me next order- which he certainly didn't have to do being as how it was totally my problem. Very pleasant guy, just hope the juice is good, too!

    Oh, and I'm really liking my "semi DIY" juices from Quacks Juice Factory. They sell readymade juice as well as two of their juices in concentrate form. They're the flavorings w/o nicotine or PG/VG added. Goose juice is their mainstay, it's a vanilla custard and is pretty tasty. But the real surprise was their Gizzard juice which is a multi-flavor juice with a chocolate note upfront. I had my doubts as I've not had a lot of luck w/chocolate in the past but this is good enough to qualify as an ADV for me. Maybe not for a week straight lol- so far, nothing I've tasted qualifies for that. But it is enjoyable and comes in under $15.00 for 120ml Readymade costs $62.00). They also sent a sample of their Quack Snack, another chocolate forward juice. And it's also very good. I'm the absolute worst at describing tastes/flavors but I wrote a few lines on these juices http://www.e-cigarette-forum.com/fo...ice-factory-semi-diy-goose-gizzard-juice.html.

    I don't know why I didn't use the code- I had it cut and ready to paste but just dropped the ball. I got Delish and Crunchberry, 30ml max VG. Got a good feeling about them...

    Next time I do some Lenola Cream I'll listen for lemon. I don't think I got anything other than fruits but I'm not one who should be relied on for accurately critiquing flavor because my nose and sinuses are really bad. And we all know how smell relates to taste.:(

    I love the rDNA! :blink: ... :laugh:

    Aww, you gotta get your dog some snow booties or something :unsure: It is beastly over here as well, and the winds were so bad that I temporarily lost one of my garbage cans :blink: I went was looking all over both sides of the lawn, around the back of the house and I couldn't find it :cry: ... Then I noticed it was belly up on my neighbors lawn at the other end of the cul-de-sac :facepalm:

    I have booties for him but he hates them. He doesn't protest and he's a good pup when I put them on him but he does that high step the whole time and won't go potty with them on. He usually LOVES snow and goes nuts but yesterday was just too cold. Winds made the cold especially brutal.

    I just rebuilt a .17Ω coil on a KF v4 for the rDNA. Mr Cookie gunks up my coils within a tank so I put some Honey Dew/Pear/Strawberry (MBV flavors I mix) in it.

    Mr Cookie isn't bad but I don't think I'm a cookie flavor guy. I'm interested in Crunchberry and Enigma.

    I think 30+ years of smoking killed my sense of taste and smell. I noticed after I quit, I can smell and taste things I never noticed before.

    I agree honey boo, your taste buds suck! :laugh: I don't get banana ... maybe a slight bit on the after taste, not the exhale, but this is a really unique flavor. Its like some special recipe that only your Grandmother would know how to make. This is definitely "regular collection worthy" so thank you Crocky my darling :wub:

    Light lemony, citrus-y cream it definitely what I get, but its not like the lemon from a lemonade, its like the kind of lemon flavor you get from a lemon cream cookie to me.

    Delish and Crunchberry are both very good .. Crunchberry you will need to let that steep for the berry flavor to come out, but again not a long steep, about 5 days with some air in the bottle. Its a well balanced version of Crunchberry, not sharp and tangy like some other of this type can be .. I love Dr's MAX VG blends too, they do them good.

    Delish is so unique and has the best throat at Max VG and 12mg, just like Boba's .. Based on how KTM describes Mr. Cookie, Delish is a totally different kind of cookie flavor. Its not super sweet like kids cookie's .. its like adult cookies and cream :laugh:

    Aww your dog sound so cute, I got a mental image in my head of a dog high stepping and walking funny with booties on :laugh:

    Well, I am sure you wouldn't have a problem with selling Mr. Cookie in the classifieds :) because I remember that you got two bottles of it :(

    Crunchberry and Enigma I think you would like ... I am still a little disappointed that they didn't send me Enigma. I bet they meant to and just grabbed the wrong White Label bottle .. I am scared of gingerbread cookie juice :laugh: Although it might surprise me :)
