Vape-A-Palooza 2013 in Atlanta

[NorthOfAtlanta]

Hi guys,

THANKS for posting the announcement! That's a tuff weekend being the 4th of July, but I'm going to pull a few strings and GET THERE one way or the other. I'm sure it's going to be GREAT FUN!

I helped organize the previous vape meet in February 2012, so I KNOW the amount of work it takes to pull something like this together. HATS OFF to all 'the workers'! (Us peons really appreciate AND BENEFIT from it! )

See you there!

That was my first vape meet and was great, thanks MikenGA. This one should be even better with all the new non smokers on here.

I am really hoping I can go. It turns out that the in-laws are coming to town and not sure if I can sneak off or not. If so, I will only be able to make for one of the 2 days. fingers crossed it won't be a big deal. Any one know how much tickets are for one day?

 

[brock957]

Believe it's free.

 

[SouthernBliss]

I would love to be able to come but with my family I can't really ever try and plan ahead. I'm going to cross my fingers I can sort it out though!

Yes the event is free, but donations will be accepted at the door for the wounded warriors project. T shirt and lanyard sales will also be donated to the charity.

even better!!!! I am really surprised that its free if in fact it is. Vapecons are much like any other con, spend a weekend partying it up with people at a hotel with a shared interest. My only experience with these has been tattoo conventions and there was always an entrance fee. I really do hope I can make it, if not I will have to shoot for Vapercon East this fall. I am moving back to VA for school so I will be there provided that my clinicals don't interfere. Either way, going to try my hardest to get there, it sounds like a lot of fun! BTW, for any of you folks within the radius of Albany, there is a vape meet on June 30th, should be a great time. I heard the turnout last month was great, sadly I couldn't make it. Fingers crossed I make it this month.

I know the feeling, I am an army wife and it seems like no matter what it is, when it is, whatever I want or need to do gets put on the backburner or gets squashed because of my husbands schedule. I can only imagine what it would be like if I added kids in the mix.

Hey...that was MY first vape meet, too...AND my LAST...until NOW!

Question to anybody with an opinion: If I can only attend ONE DAY for between 3 and 5 hours, which day would you recommend?

 

[Hokus]

I would say Saturday, I think more people will be able to make it during the weekend than on a work day.

 

[kbjoran]

I'll be saving up some pennies and dollars for this. Sounds like fun.

 

[kbjoran]

Will all the sponsors listed on their website be there?

 

[brock957]

Donations for wounded warriors. That's even better. Always willing to give to a good cause. Going to the beach the weekend before. Then getting a room to be at the Hilton. Glad there's a payday between the 2.

 

[Hokus]

Will all the sponsors listed on their website be there?

Yep, each sponsor on the site will have their own vendor table where they will have a selection of things for sale.

We also head that the vaping greek and zen will be showing up, but I guess we will see..

I think I'll wait for this to try some new juices then. Yippee!

This won't work for many of us. I currently have 23 bottles that I would consider splitting. I've been vaping for a while. I would NEVER trade my premium juice for DIY trash.

 

[Hokus]

It wouldn't all be DIY, I have some Good Life Vapor, Alice in Vapeland, Vaperite, and MAddcatts Vapor that I will be throwing into the pot

Just a little bit of everything

At the February 2012 vape meet, we had a swap box for folks to leave the juice they bought, but did not like (cuz taste is subjective, and 'somebody' is probably going to LIKE it if given a chance to try it). Hundreds of bottles were swapped, and over 300 bottles were still in the box at the close of the event...none were a DIY mix. (I had a heck-of-a-time giving all those bottles away...still have about 20 bottles left.)

My suggestion...KEEP the premium juice you bought and like, but try swapping those you do NOT like.

As for DIY, I tried a number of mixes from folks that night, and all were great. Some folks even gave me bottles of their 'best' flavors...and as a result, I'm a DIY'er today! (I won't share my juice, but I WILL share my recipes! )

Well If anyone from the upstate is going for a day trip, let me know..

I still would like to go. If I can't get there.. I really hope that BigBaby will be taking pix and vids for us!!

 

[BigBaby]

Oh yes, there will be pics and video and so much vaping and hopefully some partying.
