I use Goodprophets for nic. They always run sales on their 36 mg/ml, right now it's $14 for 120 ml of either PG or VG 36 mg/ml. I'm happy with their quality, it comes in right at spec for strength, they have enough volume that it isn't old. Not sure who they source it from, but I've been using it for about 18 months. Unless you need to mix > 29 mg/ml eliquid, 36 mg/ml is strong enough, and you need to add less filler plain VG or PG. Also check goodprophets for their flavorings -- they carry a decent selection of theperfumersapprentice items (check both the smaller and larger bottle sizes, some flavors only show in one or the other category).

For flavorings, I've settled in on Natures Flavors for the majority of what I make, but they are pricey. They're organic, no PG. Capellas is also good for quite a few items, and they often run sales on multiple flavor buys. My all day vape is a mix of perfumersapprentice tobacco blend alc plus natures Flavors vanilla (from their organic coffee bean flavors -- those are the ones to use for DIY), though other NF flavors mix well with that tobacco. I'm about due to order some more NF, rotate out my old bottles.

I believe KGJ means she puts the tape on the outside over the numbers. I do that with my ins. card because I download it online and print it out. That paper won't last long in my wallet so I put clear packing tape on it. It makes it waterproof too.

Buwhahahahahahahah!!!! I love it!

Just stopping in to say hello. I will be back later :)

Hey 5C, I buy these card protectors at the dollar store for my SS card and other non laminated cards that work really well :)

I used to but over time they became foggy. Mine still looks like the day I printed it and it's thinner so my wallet isn't so crammed. Have to make room for all the cards the government keeps sending me since they put me on medicare.

Anybody know anything about bedding? Looking for the best thing for a bad back/hip.
IDK were still trying to solve that one. We bought a sleep number type of bed. Its in the extra room I have. Kind of like a room of shame...all things I purchased with no place to go. Some people swear by these beds...I don't. I would check into some therapeutic type mattress that most hospitals use. They use air but they are so comfortable. We bought another bed and I refuse to sleep in it. Someday I will check into a better bed.

I like Sdh's recommendation Fran.

Those hospital - type beds she is describing are very comfortable.

I bought 3 Epson printers new and all of them can't load paper right. I bought the same model at the junk store for $5.00 and it works perfect.

Sorry,

Fran I hope your husband gets to feeling better really soon !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm getting ready to order some mixing stuff....I gots questions.....Nicotine....RTS or Wizard..Anything I should know?? I wanna pick up some glassware from RTS and they have some flavors as well....I've only trolled Wizard once but will check in there before ordering...

Now a while back I picked up 8oz of Strawberry from a local shop...Hey $5...It's OK but I will hit Capellas for some Sweet Strawberry to compare...I've used Capellas before and feel my cheepie straw flavor may be lacking...Still with a jug of that sheet I've not ordered any more...A man's gotta have the Strawberry Cheesecake....

The Oba Oba flavors remain a mystery....Black n Milk I did find....Ecigxpress if I remember correctly...Hey I got the hashes....so let's not rely on my memory....and it's selective as well...Lilac is getting into DIY as well...If you have a favorite...Let's hear it !!!!!!!!!!! I work from flavor percentage...While securing the Black n Milk is there any other flavor ya'll been using from that source??? Myself I yearn for the old Waffle days...My old buddy WaffleStomper put his pv down...pretty sure diacytol was the secret ingredient for the waffle...I've tried numerous concoctions and none have compared...I also wanna give a Red Bull flavor a go...Kinda weaker version of Atomic Cinnicide...I got the AC but it's a bit much for me now...

Now I'm off too put my dang feet in front of the fire.....

My budget is shot for the month, so I have to wait til the first week in Feb. to order. I will be getting nic at My Freedom Smokes, 'cause that's the only place I can find 24mg. DIY Flavor Shack has Coffee and Cream flavoring that I just have to try.

I love reading about everyone's DIYing. I have heard good things about Capella's Sweet Strawberry. I might try that, too.

Talalay Latex is what my mattress is, but as with a lot of things in my life, I went DIY instead of going to the furniture store. I have a couple of bad disks in my lower back and was having sciatica issues when I bought the parts for my queen size mattress. I have a 6" base of firm The Foam Factory, Mattresses, Conventional Foam

Then a 4" layer The Foam Factory, Mattresses, Latex Toppers and a 2" layer of memory foam. It has worked out great for me. I see the prices have gone up since I bought mine about 4 years ago.

Whatever you decide Fran, I sure hope your hubby can find some relief!
