The first 3-4 months I spent a LOT on vaping, hundreds more per month than smoking - finding and settling on my models then buying spares for everything and plenty of cartos, and trying over 100 juices to find a few I loved. Then I dropped my nicotine level a couple of times and bought all new juices (my faves and some new ones to tempt me to the lower nic).
But now I am definitely spending less on vaping. I used to spend $60-70 per week on cigarettes (and that was with cheap ones I didn't even like, 1.5 cartons per week). I now get 2 weeks+ use out of two $2 cartomizers, and run through about $8-10 of juice per week (about 20ml per week) that I stock up on during sales. Occasionally I buy a replacement battery. And for mods, so far I've restricted myself to a few $20-30 plastic box mods and a couple of wood mods ($45 and $55). Nothing extravagant.
