Wasting money!!!

[iowajosh]

How much does it cost for two people to smoke for a month?

It costs money to keep good juice coming. I like good life vapor now but tastes change with time. I just ordered $100 in juice. But now I'm good for maybe two months. Sampling costs more, just do it for a treat. If you got two flavors you like, roll with it.

When I decided to try e-Cigarettes I told myself that Even if it Cost the Same as Smoking that if I Felt Better doing it, that it would be Worth It.

With the Exception of the 2 Individual Months that I bought a Provari, I have NEVER Spent more on e-Cigarettes/e-liquids than I did When I Smoked. And I bout A lot of Starter Kits in the First Year.

And my Overall Health has Improved Dramatically.

So to me, Cost isn't Even a Factor. Better Health and Saving Money is a Win-Win to me.

So far this year, I've spent about $200 on E-cig "stuff," and about $100 on e-liquid. Since I fully quit smoking in January, you can see how much I've saved in my banner. About $150 so far this year.

I'd bet that the cat-piss smell tobacco was a honey tobacco. It's a common complaint.

I fully expected to spend more on e-vaping the first couple months than the RYO cigarettes I was doing. One thing a recommend is stick to the vendors om the natural tobacco list a few posts up. Also a good e-machine makes a difference, and SVD +Nautilis is tough to beat.

Ugh I hate wasting money. I have to say that knowing how much I spend a month when I was smoking analogs was the nice part.

But I(and my wife) just started vaping last month so we haven't really figured out how much juice we use a week/every 2 weeks/a month on average.

I found a really nice tobacco flavor when I first started. Bought 30ml. Of course that was before my wife ended up getting a shift change at work and we can't go to that shop anymore because it is 1hr away and closes before she gets off work.

I have now bought TWO different flavors of tobacco and I want to puke!! One tastes like fresh cut grass(sounds nice until you inhale it).....and the other....I can't even tell you.....ever smelled cat pee? Yeah imagine that as a flavor.

Altogether we have bought 11 e-juices between the 2 of us, 2 flavorings(blueberry and caramel) and sweetener. And I can count on 1 hand how many juices I actually like to vape all day(my caramel latte, banana nut bread and tobacco flavor....thats it!!!)!!!!!!


So....sorry for this long post. Kind of a vent and now I have some questions:

1) How long did it take you to figure out how much money you normally spend a week/a month?
2) What in the HELLOOOOOO do you do with all the juices you don't like?!?!
3) Also....does vapors tongue EVER STOP HAPPENING?!?! Or will this be a forever thing?

The flavor chase; most of us make that mistake at the start.

1) As a reference: budget HALF what used to be spent per month on cigarettes towards vaping instead;
2) I still have; I plan to just mix them and keep adding stuff to it in a big bottle.
3) Drink lots of water. (but no I don't think it really stops)- many people alternate flavors during the day- thats supposed to solve it.


Oh; and since the industry is booming, eliquid is way overpriced; once things settle down after a few years I think, prices will go down, sizes will be bigger, meanwhile best thing to save money is DIY, or some diy.

I buy 24mg 100%PG and add my own VG to slash the liquid budget.
