Hey you guys.... vvveeerrryyy quiet around here today.. weeded my little flower garden this morning... no veggies for me. I kill everything so good hearty perennials are my cup of tea. When hubby got up from his night shift sleep we went and got a few groceries (big fun!) and cooked a steak for an early dinner.. our eating habits are so weird when he works nights.. dinner at 4? That just means some form of bad snack about 9. I just saw that Woody won the Provari in that contest... YAY Woody! Provape promised another contest so we'll have to be on the lookout for that..

Thanks for the link! I'd LOVE a phiniac! I got a great deal on a big lot of Boge's, and I need a tank to fit them!

I don't think your 4pm dinner is all that weird - Iron Monkey works 2 12s & 2 8s most weeks, so on his long days he comes home for lunch around 330p (to take the boys out), and we have dinner at 10 or 1030p!

Hello All :)

My name is Cookster, and I'm a vape-o-holic...

Long story short, just passed my 10 month mark, truly unbelievable. 2PAD smoker for 42 years. Started with Volcano, been playing all the way to the Lavatube and back. Currently using LR Stardusts (love the blue & purple ones) with a 3 stage eGo clone.

I allowed myself a weekly budget for vaping equal to the money spent on cigs, so I haven't realllly saved, but I also haven't put myself in the red.

But, oh, how I love the new, the shiny, the cutting edge...;)

Been stalking the threads, waiting on the new eGo-C Twist, it's sounds right up my alley. Found a vendor selling it tonight...blew the week's budget all to He** in one swell foop!

My name is Cookster, and I'm a vape-o-holic, and I would be honored to join your group if you'll have me :)

Welcome Cookster - we're happy to have you with us :) We all have that new, shiny, cutting edge craving - and sometimes the lure is irresistible!

Congrats on passing the 10month mark!!! :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: :banana: That is such a wonderful accomplishment - you have lots to be proud of, especially with your former habit! Vaping is amazing, isn't it? :)

You'll have to let us know what you think of the eGo-C Twist when it arrives :)

In other news...
Yesterday was my 6mo quit-iversary :) 6months since I bought a pack of stinkies, and it feels amazing! The first few months were a battle of will power with the patch, and since January it has been smooth sailing thanks to the discovery of vaping.

I'm grateful for the day in January that I listened to that little voice in my head saying "find an ecig!", instead of going out and buying the pack of stinkies - not only have I quit smoking for good, I've met so many wonderful, supportive people - I'm glad to know you all!

Also: I'm putting together a care package for the son of one of the board members - he's serving in the Navy, currently on leave, and will be returning to Afghanistan for another Tour towards the latter part of May. He's a new-ish vaper, and has been sharing his vaping gear and knowledge with all of his buddies. According to his mom, those boys will vape anything without complaint, and they're all sharing what they have :)

If you have anything you'd like to PIF to him, please let me know! Juice, cartos, batteries, mods, anything you're not fond of and want to clear out to make room for things you do like would be great donations. If you want to participate, shoot me a PM, and I'll send you my information. I'd like to get this sent out early next week so that it arrives while he is still on leave, and in time for his birthday :)

Vape happy,
Cheeky :wub:

Good idea on the budget, last time I checked I was running even but now i'm not so sure....I'm all about trying new juices....I hear about another vendor and I'm off placing an order :) I try to contain myself but ugh....so many to try and so little time (money).

Anyhow welcome to the thread!!!! And I can't wait to hear all about your newst purchase!!

Congrats to you both!!! 6 and 10 months, simply FAB!!!

I'll see what I have laying about...man I'm going to have to write a big check to work for postage.....I just sent off my darling baby Provari to Provape today for upgrade. I expect her to be gone for a couple weeks....I'm a tad bit sad with her leaving :(

Welcome!! Of course you can join us... but be warned! We are not only vapeaholics, it has become apparent that we are also shopaholics!! And juice junkies. I think that's a great plan to only spend what you would have spent on analogs.. wish I'd thought of it, but then again... I wouldn't have stuck to it:laugh: We love new members.. hope you stick around!

Just think of how wonderful your baby P is giong to be when she comes back Mythus! I know you'll miss her, but maybe they'll send you status updates and pictures of her - at least she will be in very good hands, and she'll come back better than ever - It will be an amazing reunion, I'm sure!

It really is a great idea.... and I spent a LOT on stinkies, sooooooo - it would be a decent allowance! :smokie:

Cookster.. you're gonna be so glad you found us!! Not to toot our own horns or anything, but we're a fun bunch! I think so, anyway. There's lots of great people here but the very best end up here:D

Cheeky,,, 6 months is awesome!! Friday will be 5 months for me. I didn't know anything about e-cigs at all.. and I got a spam email one day.. one of those free trial things. I didn't fall for it, but it intrigued me enough to do some research. Grateful to that spam email every day!!

So hubby is shopping for a new phone... he's driving me crazy!! He has a Samsung Galaxy, I have an Iphone. I keep telling him... just get an Iphone. But he's so used to the Android thing,, gawd, I thought I was a bad shopper!! He's every bit as bad as I am! We've been to Walmart twice today looking at phones. Heaven help me!

You know,, I've got so many packages coming and going I've completely lost track. And there's two packages sitting on my counter to go out tomorrow!! Stuff for your service guy Cheeky,, and whatever you want to keep. And another one for Mythus.. let's see, do I have any vapemail coming tomorrow?? Seriously, I can't remember!! I don't think so,, the stuff I ordered last night surely won't get here until Thursday or Friday... but who knows? I might get surprised.. what's better? Getting vapemail, or being surprised by vapemail you forgot was coming? :blink:

Hey, I have to tell you what I discovered... I got an adapter so I could use the stardusts on my LT.. I cranked it DOWN to about 3.2 and holy cow!! The flavor is back!! A DCT at about 4.7 is great,,, a Stardust at 3.2 is also great.. nothing like a vv!

Vape on 'holics.. check in with ya later!

I think I have another confirmation that I too am a vapoholic. I no longer make faces when I accidentally taste juice. I don't qualify as a shopoholic. I'm happy with my KGO and I'm not looking for anything else. I'm not really a juiceaholic either. I have 10 bottles plus quite a bit of DIY and I think that's more than enough for me. BUT I sure do enjoy vaping!

Thank you both ;) This thread always puts a smile on my face...

Welcome Cookster! I hope you're male because I could use a bit more testosterone in this thread, but if not, welcome anyway! :D

Speaking of testosterone (how's that for a segue?), I got my Stanley organizer today. Big, grey and yellow, tough, and lots of room to keep all my vape supplies. Too much room in fact, so now I have to buy MORE STUFF to make it look less empty!

Surprise vapemail is so much fun!!! I occasionally get a package that I'd completely forgotten about buying, and it's AWESOME - kind of like opening a Christmas or Birthday present - you don't know exactly what it is until you get the wrapping ripped off :) Congrats on almost 5mo! Vaping=best discovery ever!

Iron Monkey is the same way - it took him WEEKS to pick just the right cover for his phone, after dropping and shattering his screen for the 2nd time!!!

Thanks for the info on dropping the voltage to 3.2 with a stardust - I'll have to try that - I wasn't enjoying them at higher voltages, and was considering selling them because of it! Will try them with a lower V & see what happens (VV=best thing ever!)

Hi Light! It's great that you're happy with your kGo - they really are great little devices! I love that we're getting more DIYers on the thread - I'd like to try my hand at it one of these days, but for now I'm pretty happy with the flavor wizard on ECB!

Aww Glen - I hadn't thought about it, but you may just be our token male right now - I'll see if I can get a few more to join us & keep you safe from estrogen overload ;)
Post pictures of the Stanley, and tell us what you'll be stocking up on :D
:vapor:
