I have tried other VG suppliers, but, to be honest, Boots does me fine. As linked above, you can maybe save upto £1 per litre, but then you have to store the stuff too. If I'm running low, I can just pop into Boots, and get another 200ml bottle that I don't really have to worry about how I'm going to store it for the next year or so. Sure, you can save a small amount of money, but that isn't really everything. +1 to this. All my mixes are VG heavy, I vape a reasonable amount in a day . . . . yet I'd be surprised if I got through 4 x 200ml bottles in a year. Do you have to dilut the stuff from boots?

I used to dilute the Boots stuff, but can't be bothered anymore. I just use it straight.

I always buy VG from Boots, I think it's great value and normally dilute it with 15% water.

As per the gents I don't dilute it . . . that's with a VG Nic Base, there's even less need if you're using a PG one. I don't bother with needles on syringes either for it ( or anything else ), normally I'll decant some off into a cup and syringe up from that.

On what basis do you choose pg nic or vg nic im not sure what I like as I've only really had cheap market/newsagent juice so thinking 50/50 any in my small mind thinking well pg is more expensive than boots vg so better to use pg nic?

The choice was made for me really c1booth as I became PG sensitive after 18months of vaping . . . so I keep all my mixes as VG heavy as I can. If you buy a high nic base in either - 72mg is good, then that gives you more options to tinker with your ratios than a lower one does.

And is there one place that is always cheaper than the rest or is it a shop around thing I tend to recommend either everythingliquid or @ukflavours, both offer really good prices and excellent service. everythingliquid.co.uk/shop/www.ukflavours.com/57-nicotine

My personal choice is to use VG Nic. My reasoning is most of my flavours are PG based so with VG Nic I have the widest range of PG/VG ratios available. (Try putting the ingredients for Custard Lovechild into a calculator and ask for a 75VG mix if you are using PG Nic) Edit: I also buy the highest strength nic base I can. No point paying all that money for PG or VG just to dilute the nic
