Walmart employee "caught" me blowing a wisp of vapor once and said, "Sir, you aren't allowed to smoke in Walmart."
I replied, "AWESOME! Cigarettes smell horrible!" I turned and walked away.
I use discretion while taking a rare puff in Wallymart, but I'll be damned if some of the derelicts who shop there don't make me wanna chuff a stratocumulous cloud sometimes!

Anybody else feel the need for a shower after leaving Walmart??

Yes

But I try to compensate with tasty vape while there. Hopefully it displaces some of the stench that otherwise would settle on me as I pass through the store.

I work at walmart.. and Im pretty sure it's against the rules but people do not like it and I have seen people vape in the store and people shoot them dirty looks and look at them like they are crazy... you shouldn't do it.. do it on the way there and back not inside!
Wally world corporate has clearly stated that it's against policy and punishable by immediate termination for associates to vape on the premises (including the parking lot in one case I witnessed).

I'm not aware of any policies for patrons.

Though I'm sure some managers would have no qualms asking you to leave if caught.

I like to vape in the Walmart parking lot. That way I can take in all the exquisite vapor along with all the carbon monoxide from the belching car fumes. Of course, I am in my beige Berkenstocks with black high top socks[emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji12] [emoji13] [emoji13] [emoji12][emoji13] [emoji12]

You don't really think if an e-liquid has 1 flavor, PG and VG then it only has 3 chemicals in it, do you? I have actually heard that argument on here with the 4000 chemicals in cigarettes example. I don't bet, although a 5Pawns e-liquid would be a good choice...

I'm not an idiot.

Pg, vg and flavor equals double digits, minimum. We both know that.

5 pawns would not be used. The idea was to give you a chance to find the cleanest eau De whatever. I was going to be real simple and use mt baker freckled lemonade. My bottle of flavor west strawberry lemonade flavoring (the exact same flavor) has quite the nasty little ingredient list.

Though, I'm pretty confident even after adding pg, vg and nic base, there'll be quite a bit less than nearly any name brand eau de... let alone perfume.

5 pawns, depending on flavor, doesn't represent a realistic outcome for your typical joose. Their oak barrel reserve for example, probably has more chemicals in it than any other joose on the market... Most of which likely comes just from the oak in the barrel.

I take my elderly grandma when she needs to go shopping at food lion or Walmart and clothing stores. She tends to take her time and get everything she is going to need for weeks at a time and she doesn't move so quickly anymore. Sometimes were in Walmart for over 2 hours, I'm all for being respectful of others and while where out on long shopping adventures I take my istick mini and a single coil tank vape on like 4.5 volts when there isn't anyone around and hold my vape in long enough for 90% of the vapor to dissapate. And I have never had an issue. Just because there is no rule that you can't vape in a place doesn't mean we should be trying to fill the store will clouds, just try to be very respectful of others and you shouldn't have any problems. Master the art of the stealth vape.
If you used to smoke cigs, what did you do then? Or what would you do.. Light up, just because you are in the store for 2 hours? They do have doors. You could just explain to grandma that you don't have enough self control to last 2 hours without a vape.

To be fair it would have to be 5 Pawns, but they would sue if the results were posted...

I wear L'OCCITANE Eau des Baux Eau de Toilette layered over Verbena body Milk. It's my Prague scent, carefully developed for maximum effect. It's all just natural plants, but the ladies become intoxicated from it. Even men sometimes, unfortunately...
I think it really comes down to the flavorings, which could have 1000's of trace chemicals in them...
It would be funny if e-liquid had more chemicals than cigarettes...

I have never been to The Walmart nearest me and not seen at least one diesel hillbilly truck with smokestacks in the parking lot and Mustangs from the 1980's and early 1990's...

Bs argument dependent on bs offensiveness that's only a possible reality by sight and then still depends on people preferring their undergarments excruciatingly undersized and worn 14" north of suffocation by way of genitalia relocation.

I vape in public indoor locations daily.

I don't stealth vape.

I've still never been noticed.

Your problem is largely with your imagination of how things might work if they worked how you imagine them.

It's a plague wrought on this society on this site that knows no boundary of topics.

I don't know what any this means I'm sorry. I'm not ignoring you, I just don't know what you mean.

In my state it's illegal to vape indoors, where smoking is prohibited. I'm not against the law. I'm against people who break the law. I'm also against people vaping indoors where it's legal just because your legal system hasn't caught up yet. The more of you who do it, the quicker they will make a law against it. While they're at it, they might also tax you, or ban it entirely. The problem with vaping indoors, it's only good for you when only you do it. It's ultimately a selfish act.

And here I'm seriously deficient regardless how often I visit my local wally world. Surely my locale isn't more upper class than yours.

Either way, let me know if'n yunna trade places fo'a minute.

If the legal system could catch up...

Or even wanted to...

Establishments would be choosing themselves...

And I would respect that...

And they'd likely enforce it...

Unlike what we have now and where we're headed...

The legal system was caught up, before all of the anti tobacco zealot legislation was implemented, if an establishment didn't want people smoking there, they placed a courteous sign stating their desire at the entrance, problem solved. The same could be done with vaping, and I for one, would gladly acquiesce to their desire. Society will catch up with the new phenomena of vaping and the waters will settle where they may, but in the end, it's not smoking, the two should not be held to the same light.

Your Focus is severely skewed. you live in a state with a law - Fine obey it.
Don't assume you know what any other state requirement is or will be until it happens.
Don't take out your frustration over your laws or assume you have the right to Force your assumption on others.
That my forum friend is the whole problem with this country right Now
People thinking they single handedly know what is best for All and assuming they have the right to make it so.:facepalm:

Sadly I look at your avi and see a kid to young to really have a grip on life:closedeyes:

I'm 34 years old, a kid I'm not. I'm an avid mountain biker though, so that explains the picture. I'm not against the law, or frustrated with it. And beyond the insults and 'merica rhetoric (I'm also a fairly conservative Republican), you've added nothing to the conversation. You've assumed a lot. All I'm saying is, if you want to walk around a store and force people to breathe in your vapor, and if you want all vapers to do this, don't complain when your state outlaws it too. It makes us all look bad when you walk around assuming other people want to smell your vapor. And if you don't care, it's selfish. Plain and simple. I don't understand why people can't wait until they're outside. They did when they smoked. It makes us look unbelievably addicted.

Plenty of us have added substance to the conversation. You have simply chosen to ignore all of it.
1) Not vaping around other people
2) Stealth vaping(extremely subdued at most)
3) Holding Vapor until disipated

You insist constantly people are FORCING.
Are you there?
Do you see it happen?

No, you are making an assumption and continually repeating yourself.
