can anyone recommend the best places to buy these to store Nic 
my mrs went in boots today and they looked at her like she was weird for asking if they sold empty bottles hahahaha
also what size do people tend to store there Nic in 100ml/200ml?????

Boots seems pot luck on which branch you go to, my local chemist does 300 ml bottles with cp caps for about 30p each.

[c1booth]

We've only really got boots local to us for chemists

[VapingBad]

A lot of people here use www.ampulla.co.uk/

[c1booth]

What's your recommendation on bottle size?

[VapingBad]

I would think about how much you use each time you mix or per month as you need to thaw out before opening.

EG if you mix 50 ml at a time and have 1 ltr get 5 x 50 ml & 3 x 250 ml, use all the 50 ml and once they are all empty the next time you need some just refill 4 of the 50 ml them from one of the 250 ml bottles and use what left in the 250 ml. If you had 2 ltrs just get 4 more 250 ml. You may prefer 30 ml for the smaller battles or have small, medium and large, I would just organise it so I only had to defrost one bottle at a time and minimised how many times I defrosted the liquid.

Thanks
I'm only just starting to mix so don't know how much I'll mix at a time
Just getting my stuff together and ordering what I need
But with sub ohm could I can't afford shop bought liquid on a perm any basis 💷💷💷
Was just after a few people's methods see if any look like they'll suit us

Ampulla for bottles and all mine are in 100ml bottles, well aside from a handful of 300ml ones that they sent me by mistake and I didn't realise until I had bottled it

I have 300ml in 100ml bottles in the fridge at the moment, 100ml in the cupboard and the rest in the freezer in Ampulla bottles.

I still have a load of 500ml amber and 100ml blue bottles ... unfortunately P&P is an issue, as well as I'm out of bubble wrap!!

How much have you stock piled in the freezer?

Errm bout 3 litres I think, possibly a tad more c1booth, I primarily MTL at 6mg, only sub ohm in the evenings so don't go through that much liquid, so it's around a 10yr supply in there

I'd recommend a minimum of around a 5 year stock of nicotine base. (I realise some members have gone for more, which is probably even better).
The TPD's maximum 10ml and <20mg/ml strength just is crazy! 

[c1booth]

I'll go for what I can realistically afford and or store
I'd imagine once we get over the Christmas expense it's the storage that's the problem more thean the cost

Medopac is another good place for Amber glass bottles c1booth . . . . I think they have a flat rate £5.00 shipping charge as well:
