What's your monthly juice budget?

[sevar]

So I had an argument with my SO about e-juice spending. Thanks to the fail government, its time to rethink the family budget big time

I spend around $100 a month on average on e-juice. I should stop getting sampler packs, really, is what I can think of right now, but I figured everyone spends as much on the stuff. Perhaps I am out of line here.

I don't do the DIY thing cause with a kid in the house, I figure its just asking for trouble.

Help out a fellow vaper and let me know how much you spend on juice each month. If a pattern emerges (and hopefully it does), I will know if I really am spending too much.

$100 seems perfectly reasonable to me. I'm finally at that point where I know the liquids I like and I'm not trying everything under the sun. I seem to average between $50-$70 in liquid per month. $100 if I'm "branching out". Considering I used to spend over $350 per month on cigarettes, the wife doesn't complain...too much .

I do about 50$ to 75$ a month. Half of that on my tried and true faves and half on trying new stuff. After a while it does seem to slow down as it accumulates, I use my freebies and will dip into a bottle less loved. That is a less expensive month.

I personally don't keep track.. but I'm sure its well below the $300+ my dear husband spends on cigarettes each month.

I try to shoot for about $50 a month or so on juice.... but right now, I've been more looking at the cost and nic strength than how good it tastes....

When I first started, it was a crazy amount trying to find ones I liked. Now that I have found 3 or so juices that I do, I average about $50/month (about half of what analogs used to cost me). Hope this helped in some way. Peace.

I think 100 is fine. I think on a normal, not trying anything new really kind of month, I'm around 50-100 including any accessories like coils/new tanks I may want/need. Compared to the 275 i used to spend on cigarettes.

Well what nic level do you vape ? If you did try DIY and use base thats same strength as what you vape now or a little higher it wouldnt be anymore dangerous than having bottles of vendor juice around and would save you a ton There is a learning curve to it but simple juices are easy to make .

If you still decide you dont wanna try DIY then my advice woud be buy bottles of large stuff you like and also keep checking the deals and steals threads for sale

About $60 to $100 ... Give or take
But I don't call it a budget ... I call it restocking ... LOL

In 68 days I've spent $562.52... But some I've spent on my husband he don't smoke cigars since I've started vaping...
That works out to $8.28 per day... But who's counting.... I'm having fun!

Usually, I spend about $30-40. I just placed some orders for about $100 worth of juice for my partner and I, and we'll be placing a few more to mix it up.

I assume that amount would also include your pv's and accessories. (i hope! Lol) I figure once you get a few pv's you like, a simple juice budget is fairly low, especially when compared to cig's. and your 8.28/day is still less than what i used to spend on cigarettes I'm scared to even know what my total has been with vaping LOL

 

[Hexebus]

I'm divorced, I spend what I want. Lol

I think I'm spending more trying to find those perfect juices right now and starting to venture into DIY so I'm buying more of those things right now. I've probably spent $200-$300 in the last month.

 

[vjc0628]

its so hard to nail down If I buy larger bottles It may last a few months some longer some shorter
also samples are more expensive
I probably spent $200 or better this month might not spend any next and just a little next
so who knows

 

[lasttango]

$150ish including cartos and drip tips etc... that's my budget - but every now and then I find a way to get some extra cash towards the stuff I want... it's become a hobby

 

[sevar]

Good stuff, so I think then that I am right in the middle maybe, and yes, I do see some months with more and some with less spending involved. Thanks everyone, it's good to know I'm not bonkers, heh.

Probably spend around $50 each month on juice. It should be noted that every few months I will make a "binge" purchase of e liquids that I want to try/get more of, which is often $150.

 

[Ryan1888]

Also, I DIY some less complex flavours. That helps the juice expenditure for sure.

I spend about $60 on 120ml of my ADV from my favorite vendor. I might buy another $20 in samples or so, but I think the key is finding something you like and can consistently vape and buy in bulk.

I totally agree with this. I've found one vendor I adore and it's much cheaper buying larger bottles. Those sample packs add up quickly!
