A big thank you

[amygx]

Hello fellow vapors


In 3 weeks time I will have been smoke free for a WHOLE YEAR and it is all thanks to you guys here at AAEC.

You have all given me so much information and helped me kick the nasty habit by becoming a vapor.

You've shown me how to mix my own juices
Given me advice on the best gear to buy for my budget (tanks,  batteries)
Taught me how to recoil

I think since starting in January I've spend about £150 total on vape related gear and as I was a tobacco smoker I've work out roughly how much you've saved me this year..

Taking in to account the cost of tobacco going up in April I figure this year I would have spend about £700 feeding my smoking habit this year alone.

So I've saved roughly £550 this year thanks to you and I haven't felt healthier than I do right now,  no more coughing,  no trouble getting to sleep,  full of energy in the morning and I can walk further than 5 meters without needing to sit down for a rest 

I'm trying not to get all emotional and everything which is why I'm keeping this short.

I just want to thank each and every one of you for putting up with me and helping me over the past year.

So,  THANK YOU from the bottom of my heart,  thank you all so much


Have a happy Christmas and a fantastic New Year

Well done amygx

[Roscopecotrain]

Well done amygx.

[sleedale]

Brilliant amygx, and I'm sure many of feel exactly the same about AAEC (apart from the bit about saving money ) I know I do

[chykensa]

Well said amygx, and well done! It's a life-changing thing we have here, I just wish those that think they know what they are talking about could read this and understand just why we are all so passionate about vaping!
Here's to the next 365 days

That's great amygx. Well done to you!
I've been smoke free since March with the help of this great forum although spent far more than you!

[igual]

Well done on your first year

amygx

I do have to ask how on earth you've managed to only spend £150 and can you please share some of your self control with me?

[reddragon]

Wow, a year is a big milestone

Have to agree on the fact that this forum helps enormously, but I too am a little concerned about your self control when it comes to spending

[Greg]

Well Done amygx, great feeling isn't it

I wish I'd only spent £150 in the last year on vape gear, in the last week maybe

[charliehorse]

Congratulations amygx

[amygx]

It's not really a matter of self control, it's more of a lack of money lol. Most of the money I've saved from not smoking has gone on new clothes and home improvements to rid my life of the smoky stench and nicotine stains

I think I've spend around £60-70 on mixing gear, nic base, concentrates, PG, VG etc. The rest was spent on various batteries and tanks.

Don't worry though because I'm getting money off friends and family for Christmas which I will be generously donating to my favorite charity...FastTech...in return they will send me loads of goodies as a thank you

[Chrissie]

amygx I've also been pretty careful about how much I've spent on vaping gear, so I've actually saved a few thousand pounds since I bought my first e-cig over 6 years ago
