Keep them for a rainy day (although now that I DIY, I don't have a "rainy day") or emergency use. I have given some to vapers that are starting out or to help get them through until their order arrives. There have been a couple liquids, from vendors, that I wouldn't give to somebody I didn't like..those got tossed. There is also a pay it forward area of the forum where people put up their unwanted juices, etc.

First rule of vaping is don't get rid of any juices you don't like without waiting at least one month.
Many freshly made juices need to steep to let the flavors come out and blend together.

If after one month, you still don't like it, then it's a safe bet you just don't like it.
At that point, the Pay-It-Forward subforum is a good place to give it to someone else.

Or if you really need the money, you could try selling it in the classifieds subforum.

So you pass on that nasty juice to unsuspecting newbees?

(just kidding :D)

While there are some I don't care for, only one so far is un-vapable so I'm just holding on to them for the time being.
Maybe someday when somebody else I know starts vaping I'll let them try some of the stuff I don't vape and if they like it I'll gift it to them.

I have been using Johnson creek for a year now, I recently bought a Buzz Pro and the flavours are awesome compared to the 808 I was using, I have been buying trial juices from some other vendors and I must admit some are worse than sucking on a smelly sock:?:, so what do you do with the juices you just can't use?
I'm with you on the Johnson Creek, Tennessee Cured is one juice I always come back to. For me it just always hits the spot and never lets me down.

I've gotten into some sweeter juices lately and really love some of Sweet-Vapes juices. When trying new juices I always get the smallest sample size they have so that it's not wasting much if I don't like it.

1: Let them steep to see if I like them after a month or whatever.
2: See if I can mix two or more juices together to come up with something I enjoy.

If those don't work, give it away. I know two people personally who vape (I got them into it!) and if neither wants the juice, I'll find someone to give it away to on these forums.

There's only been one I just tossed...an incredibly nasty bottle of vile-tasting, weak juice I bought when first starting at my local smoke shop.

well sounds like I have a plan now, wait one month and try them again and if they still taste like wet smelly socks I shall PIF. Thanks for the input.

PIF has a treasure chest thread, where you just give away what you have. They also have a trade thread where you accept the latest offer and then list what you have to offer. It is a great way to try new flavors and give away the ones that you don't care for. I do agree with "steeping" eg, letting them sit for a while. I have gotten some bottles that were very nasty smelling, but after a little bit, they ended up being just fine! Good Luck!

Sometimes, it's actually pretty good .. the crap shoot of by mail liquid ordering makes me envious of those that are close enough to a brick and mortar shop and can sample ..

I went to a B&M store a couple of weeks ago and sampled a LOT of juices. Unfortunately, I didn't find a single one that I really liked. I bought some Ry4 just because it was OK and I wanted to be able to compare it to my ECB Ry4 that I like so much.

I have a bottle of something that taste like camel vomit steeped in battery acid. Another 2 weeks steeping time and I'll try it again. Then it's going in the trash unless it has had an amazing transformation.
