Any smokers here? Wanna quit?
-
Here in Texas we have probably the cheapest smokes, it costs around $6 for a 20's pack however in Cape Cod, Massachusetts it cost me $8.40
Buying online I get it for about $4 per pack
-
$4! bloody hell! not been that price in UK for 20 years!
The vaping industry over there must be VERY competitive for it to be cheaper than smoking, which is good, promotes innovation.
In UK, 20 cigs will cost £10 = $15.34 very soon. I think it's a great idea, who wants to pay that EVERY day?! The aim is to be a smoke-free country by 2025. I believe vaping should never be banned though. If we can buy caffeine then we should be able to buy nicotine.

You should see our gas prices for a good example of cheap, even though some here think they pay too much it's f*cking cheap $3.20 a Gallon in North Dallas.
I hope that corrupt politicians (99.99% of them) do not bow to big tobacco lobbyists

I hope you get it soon! Are you planning to quit straight away or just cut down at first?
I'm going to quit straight away...
As expected, I got the note yesterday in my mailbox that the postman had tried to deliver it yesterday, but since the mailbox opening isn't big enough, I need to pick it up today at the post office...
I'm really looking SO MUCH forward to this vaping thing...
I'll post an image of my vape kit as soon as I get it...

Nice! Good luck, although, it's really quite easy!
When you get that urge, just have a vape and before you even realise it, you've forgotten about a cigarette.
What flavour E-Liquids did you get?
Don't squirt E-Liquid down the steel tube in the middle, just pour it down the inside edge of the tank.
I have found that keeping your E-Liquid topped up above half way maintains a better flavour. When it runs low you get a bit less vapour too, so keep it nicely topped up.

I finally got it...

What flavour E-Liquids did you get?
I got 5 different flavors in what they call a "starting kit"...
US Mix
Orange
Pinacolada
(perhaps it'll be my wifes favorite...?)
PlusDamp Mix (which is their own blend...)
and finally...
Cappuchino

There's a quick instruction guide in the kit, where this is highlighted as well...
(perhaps I should try it any way...

Cheers for the advices, Oli...
Much appreciated... -
So, first impressions?
Don't worry about mixing flavours if you have to. When you have about quarter tank juice left, just top up with a new flavour. Taste will gradually change.
You can get better flavours from a dedicated E-Liquid shop. The one I go to has over 150 in stock.

Good luck Kim! If you drink coffee, I suggest to vape a tabaco flavour, it works the best.
I'm 5 days free smoking right now. Yesterday, I went to the shop with a colleague of mine to get his own e-cig. At first, he didn't believed me when I told him I wasn't craving for normal cigs any more. He smoked like 30 cigs per day. So, after one day without smoking, he is fine. Another person decided to go for vaping today, so I think tomorrow I'll get him to the shop as well.
As a side note, I noticed I don't vape as much as in first two days. But I enjoy vaping more and more.
It's a revolution! One with vapours.
Cheers,
Stefan -
1 week smoke free!

I actually thought about this today!
Congratulations!!
Do you feel any better?

I believe I do, especially after a Saturday night drinking and partying, the next morning I felt great, no cough or feeling weak. I still feel like I'm cheating as vaping is better than smoking, almost like I changed to a better brand of smoke.
I cannot see a way I will ever light a stinky again, unless all vapes disappear overnight as I'm still a nicotine addict. -
They can't sell us poisonous cancer sticks then try and ban the (possible) solution! What kind of sickos we dealing with here?
Well done with drinking/not smoking. That's what made me revert back to cigarettes last year....all my friends going outside for a cig, temptation just beat me. If I had E-Cigs I never would have thought about it.
I found a local shop that sells the Provari Mini 2.5 (same as yours just shorter battery life) I'm thinking I'll go for black. Just awaiting stock of the svoemesto kayfun now.
here's some vape porn

Mine is on the very right hand side.
-
Congrats Pete!!
-
Congrats, Pete...!
Have to say that the part I find hardest is to get used to the new taste of the various juices...
But I'm a happy vaper - still on day 1... -
yeah kim sound like you need to find a shop where you can sample them. In UK, most popular flavours seem to be tobacco (obviously), blueberry, apple, watermelon and strawberry, the red bull one I have is close to strawberry. When u get the right flavour it just sticks.
-
Thought I'd try some new flavours today.
Fruit Punch - weak flavour/sickly
Strawberry - weak flavour but nice.
Blueberry - artificial "candy" flavour, like an ice lolly.
Sweet Melon -
Apple -So I got three red bull, a sweet melon and an apple.
Good times!Really digging the sweet melon.
-
I was just thinking...
One quart & a small bag for nocotine.
-
-
well that's certainly one way to quit!!
You wouldn't even remember what a cigarette was!
