So last week was payday and i went a little mad on ordering juices, personally i hold the vendors responsible with their crazy 35-40% off offers. The 20 or so!!!!juices are all now steeping. Its got me thinking tho, just when is it time to call it a day and decide that enough is enough. I know everybody's tastes are different..BUT i have ordered many many juices that are raved about, only to find that at the best they're vapable. The spending could go on and on but why? Sweet juices... GVC and Griswalds Banoffee Cream. Yes i have tried WOEL Arnold Apple Pie & Custard and its nice... BUT i still keep reaching for the other 2. Fruit juices... Heard lots of talk about Vapourtine Kiwi mix. Yes its really nice. I am grateful for the lead because i don't believe in paying postage for just one juice so i ordered their Blueberry and others... OMG i just cannot put the blueberry down for more than 2 minutes. I also found Vapology Raspberry..also really nice. Menthol... Griswalds Arctic Cherry...I just think menthol is Menthol. So i have an OK..ish liquorice and the an OK..ish tobacco flavour I also have Griswalds Blackjack and Old Holby on order to compare. I'm just thinking i could go on forever, ordering loads of juices in the vain hope that they (for me at least) are better than GVC, Banoffee Cream and my beloved Blueberry. Do i really need to keep looking.. Whats everyone elses take on this? Oh and i really want to make a disclaimer here... WOEL.. I ordered about 6 liquids from them.. Though none of them are in my top four juices, every single one is absolutely lovely and will all get vaped eventually.I honestly think that with the GVC and Griswalds banoffee being such strong sweet flavours they slightly overpower everything else.

You can never have to many if the EU get there way, best to keep stocking up I'd say!

Davey in my early days I did exactly what you have described - bought juices from here there and everywhere mainly on the basis of discounted offers. I ended up with a handful of favourites and a juice lake of barely-vapeable stuff. I now only buy my known favourites but have started mixing my own so juice purchases have almost stopped.

I've come to the conclusion I am probably going to end up trying out everything at least once. So what with new flavours coming out all the time, I guess enough will never be enough.

I've spent probably too much on devices and such this month, so unless I can get a taste of some from friends I will have to stick to what I know I like for the moment.

Order more juices and buy more expensive dripping attys or more clearos. I love my Ego twist and the juices i mentioned. I have a Vamo on the way. If the Vamo improves things then fine. If not.. well im happy enough.

To be honest vaping is no different from anything else in life - you get what you pay for. If someone is banging out juice for a couple of quid there's a very good chance they have either skimped on the percentage of flavouring or used a cheap and nasty flavour ingredient. There are exceptions - some vendors offer a limited-time reduction on decent juice but they're in the minority

I've yet to try grizwalds but have over 40 bottles of various sizes in my box... I also have four of my own steeping with another 4 or 5 mixes to do over the weekend, just need to get some stevia... Must say that so far GVC and jack the ripple are my top two, closely followed by Swedish fish. Need to get some Cocomel and some woel Arnold's.. I also love vape escape ry4' sweetest I've tasted - anyone know of a sweeter ry4?

I think I've been lucky. I've tried many juices, a lot recommended by members here, BUT as I think we've all found out it is VERY subjective and personal. Have now found a couple, one in particular that I love, and am not even bothering to try others, unless it gets VERY rave reviews. There's about 20 flavours in the cupboard that I know I can use if necessary, but I just keep re-ordering my favourite. You WILL find YOURS!
