Found out today that a colleague in work has just bought a PV, gone from 80 (!) Rollies a day to 2, and my mums riva kit arrived, and she's vaping away ( once she worked out you had to take the clearo off to charge the battery...)

Wow, kudos, down from 80 a day is amazing! Great news that your mum's gear has arrived too & we all make starter mistakes, cos it's so different to just opening a pack of cigs....innit? Well done you, lal!

Mentioned to my mum about coming on here, but think it's all a bit much. Hopefully she'll be OK for next couple of weeks!

Well done lal... it gets better the longer YOU continue, because your friends and colleagues realise it's not just a new fad. I would say that over 50% of the colleagues I go to the smoking area with are now vaping. They are mainly the older person, the youngsters have tried the look-a-likes but unfortunately gone back to the fags, probably an 'image' thing, but I think that will change in time. Assuming you don't get 'shinyitis' and can tell them how much you've saved you'll see their jaw drop... it's great.

Here's to everything being ok for her, lal, enough newness with the vaping lark & if she's not used to going online much. Maybe one day, then you can look out! Well done, dinamic22

It's not saved me anything yet! Let's see £30 on crap cigalike set up, then about £40 on evod/spinner and juice, £20 on wee clearo and 650 back up battery, then £20 on ego twist, £5 on new evod, more on replacement heads for evod, and about £20 on juice...so at least £130 or so. Day 18 of no stinkies, so about £164 saved.... Woo Hoo I HAVE saved money! And I have enough juice etc for another 3 weeks....

Yes lal, for the first month or two, while you're getting your ideal kit setup, you'll wonder where the savings are. But, unless you go mad, you will start to see the savings and that motivates you even more. Having said that, there are certain people on here that you should turn a deaf ear to, or they'll have you in the 'poor house', not saying who!
