Back to it!

[sjs]

Hey folks it's been a while since I was here so thought I should say hello again!

Thought I'd done really well I had given up smoking and due to the possible government
bans I decided to quit vaping as well!

Hit a rough patch with family and work a couple of months ago and unfortunately
somewhere along the line I decided to buy a packet of cigs which led to another pack
and so on. Obviously I should have gone back to vaping but hey ho it was 3 am at
drunk oclock and cigs were easier to find than new vape gear as I gave mine away
when I quit.

Determined to get it sorted and get off the ciggies so I've been on a spending spree
tonight online while puffng on a borrowed Ego to get me started til the shiny stuff arrives


Nice to be back as you folks were a great help last time around!
here's hoping I can get back to smoke free again soon!

Glad you made the right decision again. Life can throw curve balls to anyone dust yourself down and try again
Welcome back .

[sjs]

Thanks igual!

Can't believe I was silly enough to start smoking again!

sjs - welcome back, and don't beat yourself up about the fags, I'm sure we can help you to get tobacco-free again. What gear have you been shopping for?

Welcome back sjs

Pernicious thing, nicotine. Like they say, you don't stop being an addict, even if you become one who isn't using at the moment.

Hopefully your example will cause others giving up nicotine to throw the fags away, but not the vaping gear.

So far I've ordered 2 Evod tanks, 2 protank3 tanks and 3 Vision Spinner batteries! Also had to go and buy
an Ego charger for the borrowed Ego Ce4 combination that my mate gave me to get me started again
til the new stuff arrives Nothing too fancy but enough to get me going and hopefully keep me away
from the real ones!

Also came really close to buying a Vamo but thought I better quit while the bank was still saying yes

Juice shopping next I think as I've only got some fruit mix my friend had lying around spare but it's not
really hitting the spot!

I should have known better, I only gave my gear away around a month before I started smoking again LOL!
I thought I would do my friends a favour as they were using one of the cigalike packages and had
spent a fair bit of cash on them only to find they weren't all they were made out to be.

On the plus side they are both still vaping so some good came of my mistake

what gear did you use to have how far down the shineyitis path were you

Thankfully I hadn't gone too far down the shiny path! I had a couple of the Vision Spinners which I've ended up buying
again tonight a selection of tanks ranging from ce4s to Evods and Vivi Novas and a very short time with a Vamo 2
which my other half managed to lose 3 weeks after I bought it!

Shineyitis was always the biggest problem with this forum lol far too much temptation!!

[ronaldo]

I think a vamo is a very good choice did you keep your charger if you have I would opt for another vamo as the price is very low at the moment

I have to admit I was very tempted to buy another Vamo 2 tonight but I would have had to buy batteries and charger
as the cheapo charger I had was given away when I gave up last time! I was also wondering whether the Vamo 2
was still a good choice as there seems to be a lot of new gear out since my last vape shopping sessions!

I can see the temptation arising around payday though

sjs - welcome (back) - it's always the way when you think "I'll just get rid of all this stuff I don't need anymore"

Hope you can give up the ciggies once again

Oh, and I think the vamo is up to V5 now ....

Lol yep I noticed the V5 when I was trying to decide what to buy I think when I
bought my Vamo 2 the swirly patterned vamo 3 was just starting to make it
into stores (and I was glad I had bought the V2

Can't believe how much stuff has come on the market in such a
short time it's now even harder to decide what to buy!

If I give up again I'm storing it all away next time.. tonight has
been an expensive lesson

Welcome back sjs

Welcome back sjs.


Here's to you being just as successful this time around.


You've got to go a long way to beat a Vamo for what it costs ( I think ) though personally I prefer the V2 to the V5. That's probably just me.

Though the MVP could be worth some consideration, no need to be buying batteries and charger with it:

welcome back sjs - this is also for me the second round of vaping - and I know that I really have cracked it this time - so a second round is a good thing
