this question ties in with all the discussion on legislation, it's something I've been wondering.
If you only had the choice of going back to using a ciggalike kit, with pre filled cartos, going back to smoking cigarettes, or quitting altogether. Which would you choose?
Lets say for the sake of the discussion, that the ciggalike kit, is similar to those around now, where a carto will last me over half a day, and is about £7.50 a packet of 5, so I'd need 3 packets a week, £22.50. Maybe £30 (4 packs) for those heavier vapers. Still cheaper than smoking cigarettes, more expensive than rolling.
It's been said that the amount of liquid in a carto will most likely go down under legislation, but nobody knows for certain, so lets use the above figures as a basis for this discussion.
So which would it be, ciggalike, smoking cigarettes, or quit altogether?

I'd go for the ciggalike Alvo, with the option of mixing my own zero nic juice in my favourite flavours. . . with just buying a few packs of emergency nicotine carto's.
My addiction is the hand to mouth habit, seeing the vapour . . .

I don't think that is allowed in this instance Karma, the big man upstairs has said imports are also banned, he's imposed tighter restrictions on nicotine in liquid form, and basically done everything possible, within their power to make sure the only ecigs we can access, are licensed. That's the situation I'm envisioning, kind of a worse than worst case scenario. lol.

If you can find me a cig alike carto that lasts half a day and a battery that lasts as long as a riva, I'd give it a bash !
Realistically I'd stockpile with a view to quitting when stock ran out
