Mine was healthecig from a deal of the day site it was bad!! So i started searching and found ecf and now no more stinky sticks
Hi all, my experience is odd at the least, a co-worker started vapping, me and other guy just start making questions, i didnt cared much. Till the day that "the other guy" asked me to search e-cig stuff for him, i quitted smoking almost a year ago, but realized that i was smoking on partys, and the return was almost happening, so i orderred the kit for him, and started thinking that maybe it would be better to vape than returning to the smoking addition, as usual. And here i am, 3 months vapping and now i do not have to struggle everyday with non-smoking any "analog".
I had seen the mall kiosk ecigs for a long time and had even tried them but thought there was something missing from them.
Flavor was a big issue and even the flavors that they had felt lacking. Seriously considered starting them for like 2 years. Then Like 2 months ago I went to a friends house and he had an EGO with a 510 and a drip tip with hazelnut machiatto juice and he let me try it, also told me about a local vendor. 2 days later i was at the shop buying an ego and other than the pack of black and milds i had bought that day i've never looked back. now i have an ego with type b and a attys and a silver bullet looking at a buzz pro and want nothing to do with an analog. some of the people i've known longest in my life have tried the ecig and found something that they never found from any sessation product, and i'm happy to have been the one to show them the way.

Blu.
And if I said where I saw their ad, I'd probably be banned from the forum. I just checked that forum and I don't see any ads for Blu there now, but at the time, ads for Blu were figured prominently.

first heard about them from a buddy in the fire service. started a job where i couldn't smoke and got an xhaleo2 and then just got a blu. like the xhale flavor more than the blu but we'll see what happens
Heard about e-cigs from a friend a while back. Did some research and i was instantly sold by the whole "vape (almost) anywhere" deal. Couldnt find any canadian suppliers, so i read a few reviews and decided to go with TW for my first e-cig. Picked up the Tornado and been vaping ever since 
I saw an ad for an e-cig in a local drugstore flyer and decided to do some research.Once i found this site i was intrigued and thought i would give vaping a try. I picked up a bloog maxx fusion kit and love it so far,even though i'm still not off analog's as of yet.
Saw a commercial for "Blu" and ordered them for my husband and myself - we liked the idea, but they just didn't do it for us. Fast forward to Christmas w/ my sister who was vaping for about a year, by the time my trip was over I had already ordered my Joye 510 kits from Cignot, they were waiting for me at my house when I returned around New Years 2011. I progressed through to Ego, then Ego T, then to my Infinity, Buzz and 5vbox mod. Newest toy received this week is a GLV3-mini. I put down analogs the day after I received my first 510. I keep my older equipment around for curious friends to "try out", my mods look intimidating to them until they actually try an ecig .
I first heard about ecigs when I went on vacation with my husband this past August and I saw them at a Mall Kiosk. I didn't buy one from there though. Then I saw the disposable Blu at my local Wal-greens and gave it a shot. Liked it a lot did a little research and ordered the Safe Cig Micro (which has since been returned), then I got a Blu (which I actually like), but yesterday I decided to go ahead and get an eGo-T and hopefully I will love it!
2009 Penstyle from Puresmoker.com Didnt last long and went back to analogs, recently purchased a Reo Mini and hope to stay vaping for MUCH longer!
My first ecig was purchased at a local flea market from satisfying smoke. It was an 808 model. I was told that since I was a pk a day smoker that the 5 pk cartos would last me a week. Well, I have not touched a cig since, but my vapin' was much more than smoking (since I could now smoke in the house). I was starting on my third carto a day (Satisfying Smoke didn't tell me that I could refill them) so I asked my sister-in-law what to do (she had been vapin' for almost 2 years). She told me to get the 510 starter kit from Cignot, which I did, and ordered some E Liquid to go with it. I really liked it but just was not as satisfying as the 808 battery to me. So, I ordered 808 batteries and cartos from various sites and I use both of the models now. I was going to try the Ego and was researching and ran across the E Power. Well, I purchased that in the 14650 and then had to have the 18650 model since they both used the 510 atty's that I had plenty of and the batteries are cheap and last a long time. Beginning to think it was a bad choice because I can't find replacement switches for them. I now have a couple of the Ego 650/PT batteries and I like them a lot. Still, if I had to choose, the 808 model has the better hit for me. Oh, and I use them all.........lol. Sorry, didn't mean to write a book!

I had seen them in the mall a few times. My wife and I were trying to quit by smoking a nasty tasting brand. Only two stores carried them - and the shipment for the week hadn't come in. We decided to try vaping.
So our first was the Duo Fifty-One from the mall. The next day we learned of a real store nearby, went there and looked over the selection of slims to mods, and walked out with eGo-T's. So really, the Fifty-One's held us till we got the eGo's. After 2 months with those, we got a pair of ProVari's as a present to each other for making it two months without an analog, and without killing each other. (It's also good insurance - I mean, a ProVari is a bit of an investment... Now multiply that by two. We ain't about to quit now!)
** shechefj ** Looks like we made the switch on the same day!

Bought my first bargain kit from the mall. For the low, low price of $175 I was the proud owner of two 30 minute ecigs with nearly empty "filled" cartridges that were supposed to last me months. (They saw me coming)
Went back to the company to find out why cartos weren't lasting and they told me that they had never heard of that- ok so now I was broke and a nicotine freak.
Finally came across the ECF and got hooked up. Think I'm finally at the point where I need to be w/ equipment and juice but it was not an inexpensive learning curve. Will probably break even sometime in the next decade

another noob here - first e-cig was a krave 300 (from the local gas station) - didn't like it at all - now 808's and ce2's are keeping me happy (for the time being) - i'll upgrade eventually - too busy trying out different juices with my new analog free taste buds
thanks ECF

My first e-cig is V4L. I have spent nearly 300 dollars on supplies to stock up me and my friend. I got into vapping to keep me from getting back into smoking. Having something to puff is a huge stress reliever for me. Work and school have been getting out there stress wise. Just started last week, but loving it! My friend is loving it as well, hoping he stops with analogs.
2 am last December a pop up for green smoke appeared across my computer screen. I swear it was a sign, I had been sitting and worrying at that very moment about my health due to smoking. I bought it, used it for 2 weeks convinced e cigs work but the kit it self sucked. Bought numerous eGo kits and it's been smooth sailing ever since.
My first PV system was an eGo kit. Of all places, I heard 'bout 'em on AR15.com.
Trio51 mall kit $190. Kept seeing that kiosk, wondering if maybe, just maybe it would work. Decided not to research the net for ecigs. I was afraid Big T would have negative articles and scare me away. Bought the kit, needed something better shortly, searched Craigslist and found a guy with two mods for sale, a 5v GLV and 6v Omega. He brought a bag of juices, mods, attys etc. We vaped at Starbucks while he showed me the basics. I'm forever grateful. Later, finally found a vaping forum then ECF. Good times
