Thought it would be cool to see how much we each allow ourselves to spend every month. Just a rough average, or your goal. Mines around 100$ a month, maybe 150 if I splurge.

I spend about $200 a month. I love to try new stuff 
Hey I look at this way $200 a month is less than I would spend on analogs a month. Actually about half considering they are over $10 a pack and I smoked atleast a pack a day

new ports are 7$ here so I was spending roughly 234 a month...trying to limit my buying bc the extra cash would be the icing on the switch to vaping cake
My only rule is this: Buy what juices and gear you NEED, and THEN buy what you WANT after the needed purchases.
Recently it's been difficult balancing the financial scale because I just upgraded from 510s (atty/carts) to eGos with cartos (they do add up, but luckily they're just for driving or when I'm heavily distracted) and attys for dripping. Getting new cartos, attys, and driptips sacrificed a lot but now I'm almost back into the full swing of things. (I'm lucky since I got two batts from a friend and one of them FELL APART (it was free, no worries) because I think I screwed it on the USB charger too tight... ...so she up and BOUGHT me a whole new eGo kit instead of buying something she wanted. So to pay her back when I did have the cash, I bought her cartos, helped her to get a new eGo kit, and then some non-vaping stuff ECF rocks for people helping out!).

Didn't really limit myself but that was in the first months I started.
Now I just buy what I need to be well stocked.
I do like trying some the new stuff coming out---if I can catch a good deal.
Well stocked so probably not averaging $50 a month.

When I first started vaping I bought way to much were talking I still have 510 batterys, attys here untouched never been used and not just a couple of them and this is after me giving away some. I upgraded to the EGO kit not long after I started vaping and had extras for it and just stuck with it for a long while I still had tons of juice as well. And last week I upgraded to the EGO-T 1000 mah tank B bought extra attys and tanks for it. I buy my juice in bulk now from China and mix as needed so I really do not have a monthly thing that I spend I might spend every 3 months on juice and flavors or pg and vg.
Let's just say if I don't pay the power bill by next Friday, they're gonna cut me off
Now that I have a good setup with doing most of my juice DIY, I'm trying to stay to $20 a week(doesn't always work ). Part of the switch from analogs was to save money in the long run.
). Part of the switch from analogs was to save money in the long run.
My initial goal was to not spend more on vapeing than I did on cigs. It took me 6 months but in 7 days I will have achived that goal. My calculator says I had spent $1825. per year on cigarettes. I would like to cut that # by at least half which will figure out to be about $76.00 per month in the future. I am well stocked at this point so I believe it's doable.
I have the worst of both worlds-- I'm buying DIY stuff, lots of flavors especially, and still ordering new juices to try. Oh, and buying "good deals" from the classifieds from time to time (example: I ended up with a couple dozen 901 attys and I seldom use those anymore). I sorta try to limit the purchases to $200 per month for two people.
Oh well, cigs were costing about $250 per month, so aside from the occaisional mod purchase I'm probably doing not-so-bad.

$60 - $70/month. I bought nothing for several months, recently restocked and picked up a new mod. I expect it'll be near year end before I need anything other than maybe a couple more packs of cartos (waiting to catch an eastmall coop).
We were spending $140 a week on cigs.... so yeah we're saving money... it does take a certain amount of self control we could easily out spend our old cigarette budget if we let it get out of hand.
Cigs here are about 12 a pack. 2 packs a day was about 672 a month. Been vaping since around May 20th and have spent 365. Have not figured out what im going to spend a month when I totally hit my comfort spot but am clearly ahead of the game right now.
$60 a month for 2 people. We go through 120-150mls of juice a month. DIY is the way to go if you're looking to save the most money.
Since march (when I first fully got into vaping) I've spent upwards of $1000 on vaping. Of course thats with my beginner mistakes buying for me and my ex. 808 pcc kits that the batteries broke after a day. Then ego-t kits which the tank system leaked, then trying all sorts of atomizers.. going through lr 510 and ego mega atomizers like they were going out of style. Now I havemy provari and roughstack, found my fav juices and boge cartos, dont waste money on attys and am stocked on juice for another month.
So now that I got my setup down I foresee spending around 100/month on juice and average 100 on modding and such.
Smoking cigarettes I couldn't reallt see what I was really spending cuz it'd be 10 bux every day or other day, whereas with this I make a big order and am good for a while. And I smoked american spirits which last I bought were 12 bux in brooklyn, 10 long island

I think I am on my way to actually saving money I've got my pv set-ups, 3 eGo batteries, a 3.7 mod, a 5v mod and a VV mod (though, I'd really like to ONE more 
I'll wait though)
I've found an all day juice that satisfies me completely, and I have a decent reserve of back-up favs, juce in case I run low or out of my all day. I have a small arsenal of atomizers. The only thing I have been buying recently, aside of a couple dollars for samples here and there, is my main juice.
So, I guess around $40-$50 a month.
