What's the best way to find a local smoke shop?

[Roveer]

I remember as a teen there existed "smoke shops". I have read a few posts here that refer to smoke shops. Any ideas on how to find local places? yellow pages (do they still exist?). I wouldn't mind finding a place local to get some instant gratification when looking for this stuff. Since I'm in-between the whole ecig look a like and the larger stuff, so I still need a little convincing. Doing this all on the internet might not be the best idea and might result in a drawer full of stuff I don't like or use.

Word of mouth...or you can look at the B&M locator.


Edit: Google is also your sensei.

That B&M Locator is seriously out of date.

Word of mouth is good, you may also do a search in the top level of the forums for the city you live in. also see if there is a group for your area. The information is out there, and a lot of it is here hidden deep in the lost mines of this forum, guarded by poison-dart spitting tiki dolls and giant boulders connected to surprisingly well engineered counterweights.

but a little searching, and a bag with the right amount of sand will yield treasure.

hahaha indeed the yellow pages do exist, much easyer to google your area header smoke shops , vaping suplies on the other hand much harder to find for small area searches

do not throw out the idea until you have used a mod like the ego set up . as for juices, you will indeed buy way more then you like trying to find flavors you like

i dont know where wher you live in nj but you can probly call jersey shore vapors and ask if they know some were close to you

There's a forum just for NJ - New Jersey Central Vapers Club

Once you reach 5 posts and wait a few minutes, you can post there and I'm sure you'll get some help. They also have vape meets, which are a great way to see and try many different devices and juices. Good luck!

You can try searching here

Electric Cigarette|Eliquid|Supplies|Electronic Cigarette|Ejuice|Smokeless|Vapor Search USA

Also add your zipcode to google search terms to see what comes up ex "vape shops your zipcode"

The ECF store locator is still new and incomplete. Try vaporsearchusa.com. Still not totally complete, but very helpful.

Home - ECF E Cigarette Store Locator
Does have a feature as to where You can add stores that are not listed. Be nice, help the community if You come across one that isn't listed, and worthy of being listed please add it.

I have tried updating the list but get nothing but errors. Does not accept my user name/password and sends me to blank pages if i click the get password button.

Again, blown away by the amount of information available here. I will check this out. Thanks so much for posting. I'm getting close to my 5 posts, so it won't be long till I can reach out to the other areas. Thanks again.

Google it?

State of Illinois

There is a listing for each state. I have it bookmarked for my state. Here is the main listing:

For some reason You can't use Your ECF name/password or at least I couldn't. I had to set up new ones, and can log in but I have not tried to add a store.
I will try it if and when I ever come across one.

 

[jerrsun]

I don't know about NJ, but here in southern california Yelp is a great resource for finding B&M vape shops. I just put in the term vaping and literally dozens of vape shops pop up.

 

[Debra_oh]

Thanks, i will try a new account.

haha i was just about to say you may need to clarify which kind of smoke

Next time you see somebody smoking an ecig in public ask them where they got it. I did that when I saw somebody using a mod I had been looking for everywhere (even online) and it was reasonably priced too. The only problem is that some of these retailers can be a bit shady. I once paid 20$ for a 7 dollar knockoff atomizer and I bought a mod that I suspect might be either refurbished or used due to the condition it was in. Maybe somebody who worked there decided to take it for a joyride I'm wondering if anybody else here has run into that problem but I cant seem to find any info on it.... anyhow once you do find a store I would inspect all merchandise before purchase and be informed about the product and it's knock offs or "clones".
