marlboro and mild seven. 2years ago i've been a pack a day. and it goes up to 2 packs whenever i'm out with my drinking buddies
i smoke marlboro before its just like im 4 months now free in analogs. my first e-juice is hangsen ry4 16 mg. not bad at all. im just new to this forum ecf. im from the nu vapor. And ive seen a post of allmightygod in facebook. that there is a new U.S. made gen head so i decided to join this group, i want one of thus
camel menthol lights. still smoke a little on the weekends but i just started vaping and its working. dont smoke at all during the week anymore.
Marlboro Reds (King or 100s) a mainstay dating back to the "flip two quarters into the machine then walk away quickly" days of junior high in the 1960s. (I think M. Lights came out a couple years after I started smoking and I never liked them.) Flirtations over the years with Old Golds (anyone else remember those?), yummy Winston FF 100s in the gold pack, Merit and Vantage during brief light cigarette phases, many years of Marlboro Medium 100s.
Since starting vaping three years ago, I've chosen to still smoke as kind of a "safety valve" (and because I still love it...), but never more than 4 Marlboro FF 100s-- down from 20-30.
Even though there are quite a few non-tobacco juices I've liked, I tend to tire of each of them and prefer to be hooked on an all-day vape. I DIY with a mix of various pipe tobacco-ish flavors-- Latakia, Perique, etc. Not cigarette-like, of course, but pleasant.

I smoked Marlboro Red and Lights before.. and now i can control my smoking addiction, thanks to vaping.
The last few years of smoking we bought pipe tobacco and a manual machine and made our stinkies. It was a bunch cheaper. Started vaping because husband was diagnosed with mild copd.
Djarum Blacks (ugh) then their Black Cherry Clove cigars when they were no longer selling Blacks. After 7 months analog free I got offered one by a buddy...absolutely a total letdown. Nothing is as good as vape. I am a complete convert.
I'm actually smoking (waiting for delivery of my first vape kit) Benson&Hedges Blue, half pack a day.
about 15 days ago I smoked Lucky Strike tobacco, natural or the white one

Sterling king size red, cheap and nasty. Though I found most cigs where the same really, so I brought the cheapest ones.
smoked newports for a decade then switched to marlboro smooth.... if i could only find the right menthol to mix with shamrock id have the taste replicated.
I smoked a pack to a pack and a half a day over a 34+ year period and in that time...
Camel Non-filter was what I started with because a "Friend" introduced me to it.
I know many would say he was not a friend if he introduced me to smoking but I say he was a friend,
he was just "Duped" like I was, into thinking it was "The Thing" and "Cool".
I then went to Marlboro - mainly because "everyone" smokes Marlboro... lol... but after trying Winston,
Marlboro "tasted" like chemicals...
Then there was Raleigh, and Benson & Hedges (stole both from my dad and mom -- lol)
Then there was Pall Mall, Bailey's, Summit, GPC's, and a few others...
For the last 10 years, I mainly used the "Make Your Own" with filter tubes and bulk tobacco, mainly
because the cost of regulars went way up... and up... and up...
I have noticed many things good about the e-cig, one being the cost compared to analogs.
If I can do anything at all to keep my e-cig, I will do it, be it sign petitions, comment on propaganda
and agenda based "Reports" and "News" commentary and other misinformation filled videos and such.
I Love my eGo

Marlboro Lights here. Anywhere from 1/2 to 1 pack a day during the weekdays (I chewed the gum at work) and 1 to 1 1/2 packs a day on the weekend.
When I first started vaping, I was always looking for that tobacco taste, that Marlboro taste if you will, and started with 18mg nicotine ... in just a short time, I have already cut back to 12mg and have found some of the stronger tobacco flavors do not taste good anymore unless there's something mixed with it. i.e. apple, peach, banana, etc. I am digging on some of the coffee and bakery flavors as well ... just pure bliss.
My husband and I started at the same time and he's went from 24mg to 18mg, but still loves his JC Red Oak Tennessee Cured ... we've talked about how hard we think it would be to even try to go back to smoking analogs ... I think the taste would just be nasty at this point ... and I sure don't see Phillip Morris making a blueberry crumble that makes your mouth water.
