Vaping at Walmart

[Thespis]

Not even with threatening them with eternal suffering if they do not agree with you?

I've got way too much stuff of my own going on to worry about somebody vaping in the cereal aisle. When I get my own act completely together, then I might see fit to advise others on how to behave. I don't see that happening.
People do interesting and unexpected things. Thus it has always been; thus it shall always be.

Lucky you. That 3 hour medical test I posted about at the start of this thread? Guess what two things they were checking me for?

Seriously.

I'm now on an antibiotic to try to kill the bacteria making it.

How's the count going on extroverted convicts? They're KINDA Con-Verts.

I don't think I've ever vaped in a walmart, I don't go there often. I have vaped in a Costco. I don't leave my mod in the car, because it's CA and it gets hot. I don't wander the aisles vaping, but if I've been in there an hour and I've got a full cart and I pull into 1 of 4 lines open with 10 people ahead of me, I might just pull a few draws. It's better than my anxiety of being around that many people and having to wait getting the better of me. I don't have any "stealth" rigs. I use my usual modwomping drippers and just hold the exhale. Haven't had a complaint yet.

The only place I vape indoors is vape shops and bars that I ask if it's okay for me to vape and they say yes. Also when I vape at the bar it's not my Sig 150 with a quad .25 coiled cloud chasing rda. It's like an aspire et-s/mini nautilus at like 9 watts. Just enough to keep my craving to smoke while drinking away and not so much that I fog out the bar. The vapor production is similar to a cloud of smoke from a cigarette. When you get into the higher wattage mod you are putting out way more vapor than you would ever get smoke out of a cigarette. It really doesn't take much to do it. 10-12 watts and you are easily out performing analogs.

No it doesn't stink and doesn't linger as badly as smoke. But go in your local vape shop where people are cloud chasing and running better setups. It's hard to see across the room in the smaller ones. This may not happen in a store as large as walmart, but it does linger. It's also about respecting others... maybe they don't vape and don't want to breath your secondhand vapor no matter how harmless it is to them. Maybe they don't think your blueberry juice smells as good as you think it does. Also people with kids maybe they don't want their kids breathing it. While everything points to it being safe. We don't know that for fact. We are the guinea pigs still yet with this vaping. We will be the first long term users. Until more is known there will be the people that side on the side of caution. The only reason I started vaping was because I was a smoker. If I wasn't a smoker you couldn't have paid me to start. No matter what your theory was on it being safe long term with out facts. Most of us know that smoking is dangerous and rather do that we gamble and hope that vaping is safe in the long run.

You should not Vape in Walmart or any other Mart, stuff like this gives vaping in general a bad rep in the publics eyes.

I stealth vaped in there once about a month ago. I was in the pet section. Really never think about it while I'm shopping but if I feel like doing it again I probably will.

Anyone ever have any issues with vaping at a walmart?

After just buying my Eleaf i decided I was going to vape it at walmart like I have several times over. This time how ever the greeter guy decided to tell me that i wasn't allowed to use the device in the store as I walked out to grab my wallet from in my car. Talking to the store manager however, He said there was nothing in the store polices about vaping and I could do so as I wished. No one ever said a word to me when I had my Spinner or my Vamo, but now that I actually have a box people start speaking up.

Clone or authentic?

Personally, I think people treating vaping as something that should be hidden away, out of public view, or worse something that people should be afraid to be near, gives vaping more of a bad rep.

It's not really about hiding it away like we are ashamed or it's bad... It's about respect. Vaping has became pretty mainstream at this point. I remember when I first started it was like "Oh my god what is that thing?" when people saw my e-cig. Now it's just another thing. Even when I chuck a cloud with my sig 150 in a parking lot now it hardly gets a look anymore. I might get another person that asks me about it, but it's because they are a vapor and they want to compare gear. It's not because they don't know what I'm doing like it used to be. Educating people about vaping doesn't require a demonstration.

Right, I wasn't advocating being obnoxious. If I were ever vaping in a store and someone had a problem with it, I would most likely stop, as long as they weren't an ... about it. I will not impose an indoor vaping ban on myself though.

You didn't smoke in Walmart did you? So why feel like you have the right to vape back n it.


If I go at midnight I'll take some pulls but if I go at 6pm I'm gonna respect other consumer because I'm not an entitled jerk.

Sorry but you're just being a whiny lil jerk

 

[juggler86]

Not saying you're one of those people who are getting us regulated by the day but it does seem like it. Have respect ad be a decent human
