So throughout the years I have bought a lot of stuff I don't like and don't want to waste so the big question what to do with it? How long do you keep it and retry it before you call it a lost cause? My husband is tired of looking at my e liquid overflow lol.
What do you do with e liquid you dont like?

Give it away (PIF)
Sell in the ECF classifieds.
I use some of my unvapables to burn in SS wicks or pre-wet a new wick.

There's a trading board around here somewhere although i've never used it. Maybe someone can redirect, one persons' dislike is another person's tastes and all.
Three or four months is about the longest I'll wait it out. At this point either the juice has changed taste, or i have changed tastes. I dont know anyone around me that would want it that i could give it away.
I don't consider it wasting by trashing it if it's unbearable. If it's got some redeemable taste, i'll keep it around in case of emergency but that's fairly uncommon. I order for next month because i like mines aged so i'm rarely in a break glass situation.

A few things I've heard of ...
If it's not truly gross, mix some of the more likely combinations and try them.
If it's really bland, cover up the flavor with DIY flavors that are compatible. I have some in this category and will probably just swamp them with something like menthol, cinnamon, chocolate or citrus.
Get a big bottle of premixed unflavored ejuice and dilute it down to the point where it's bland and then flavor it.
If it was high end, someone probably likes it so either PIF it or sell it.
If it was cheap, strong and awful, toss it. I.e. if you wouldn't subject the homeless guy on the street to it.

theres been very few flavors i've found unvapeable
i usually use the flavors i won't vape to put on orings or burn on new genny wicks...however i found one flavor that totally ruined the whole tank on a genny i used to sit up, i had to throw out the wick and wash the tank to get the flavor out
if it's something i'm not a huge fan of, i'll mix it with a similar flavor that i do like....for example i have a strawberry hookah thats not good, i'll mix it with a strawberry flavor

I use it to test out new RBA builds I haven't attempted before (especially in tanks) and lubricate o-rings.
Thanks guys I just bought some on classified and it wasn't my cup o tea lol. I have some FA lemon and Bavarian cream I wonder if I can make a lemon cream diy to mix with this lemon cream pie to give it some umf.
If it's truly unvapable, and I've made some, I have used it to fix a squeaky door. It works great!
Lol that's awesome I'll have to remember that. I have some blueberry from TW that I just can't seem to get on board with maybe that will be my squeaky door spooge.
1st let it steep for over a month
If that doesn't help
2nd mix it with something else to see if I can mask the flavor (cinnamon, menthol, and licorice or anise are good at this, they say mint is also, but I don't like minty vapes
if that doesn't wor
3rd PIF

Play mad scientist and mix two unvapables together to see what you get. Who knows? You may come up with the next best thing since sliced bread.
I did a menthol strawberry cheesecake. That was just what it needed.
Actually I have ran across very few that were garbage worthy. My problem is that if I like something I reorder it and that is just about the time I grow tired of it.
Luckily there are about a half dozen new vapers at work, so I recently brought in about 15 bottles of juice that wasn't doing it for me. This way, I get rid of it, and they get to try new flavors.
Anything I don't like, when I sell or trade I always send extra(unless I'm out). If they don't like it, they do as they pleasE.
