I had a look at my E-cig purchases in my paypal history the other day. It averages out at £25 a week, which is pretty much what I used to spend on cigarettes. For that outlay though, I must have enough gear to last at least a year. So the cost should gradually come down. So i guess it's true, vaping is cheaper than the fags ![;D](//storage.proboards.com/2973975/images/uKg77DgrQpkBFJJN7U0P.gif) Anyone else in pocket?

Had it not been for the TECC sale Buck I would have been squids in, about £19 a month my vaping outlay, which as was I spending a truly eye popping and extremely embarassing £70 a WEEK on cigarettes is a huge and much needed ( on all levels )saving for me.
As it is I haven't but long term I will, all my ecig purchases I regard as the best investment I've ever made, as I sincerely hope to never ever smoke again.

I'll have to come back to this one lol.
Being a newbie, I've probably spent a lot more lately getting started, than I intend to in the future.
I'm hoping from now on, to be mainly buying juice & maybe the odd attie. So, hopefully no more than on average £20 a month. Can't actually afford any more than that right now anyway.

Hi buckowski, As a former 40 plus a day smoker, I spent over 90 of your Earth £'s a week on SuperKings Black ... Now a vaper, I might go through a couple of atomisers and around 20ml of e-liquid or so a week. I mix some of my own e-liquids. So I would put my average weekly costs at around £12 for e-liquid and £8 for atomisers etc. The TECC sale cost me the best part of 1000 Earth £'s. However, combined wth all the hardware and fluids that I had already purchased over the past 18 months ... I need purchase absolutely nothing for the next couple of your Earth years or more. Hardware I'm using .... TECC & TW Stick, 510 & Mega 510 variants, Classic pen style 801's, Super mini's, Micro pipes, TECC Tornado & Mega Tornado with full range attachments. Please feel free to ask my personal opinion on any of the above hardware.Of course buckowski, at my age in your Earth years .. I just hope I get the time to use it all ..

I used to keep track of how much I was spending on vaping compared to smoking, but all I now know for certain is that where in the past there was too much month left after the money ran out, it's now the other way round. I was a very heavy smoker - on a bad day over 50 a day ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/2973975/images/V_yPuiwBICIqOziN7BjO.gif) However, I decided to just put in the figure of 35 a day when I created my ticker so it sort of reflected the true amount I was saving.

Hi Buckowski, on vaping i spend a lot less than i used too on cheap cigs, i'm £800 in pocket and fingers crossed enough stuff to last me 2 years. I don't mind stocking.....i ain't planning on going back to cigs any time soon ![;)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/wink.png) If the future is good then i'll sit back and save more, if not i'll just keep my stock bumped-up ![;D](//storage.proboards.com/2973975/images/uKg77DgrQpkBFJJN7U0P.gif)

Great thread !! In 12 months I would roughly go through : 2-3 M4 Atomisers = £10 1-2 M4 Batteries = £10 1 Riva Battery = £10 500ml FA Juice = £80 500ml DK Juice = £50 So in total just over 150 squid a year or about about £13 a month ...... I actually spend more on haircuts these days than I do on my Nicotine habit !! ![;D](//storage.proboards.com/2973975/images/uKg77DgrQpkBFJJN7U0P.gif)

I've just had mine cut, it's went up to £8 and I'm whinging about that. But the £38 cut has made me more stable about it ![;D](//storage.proboards.com/2973975/images/uKg77DgrQpkBFJJN7U0P.gif)

I reckon I average 50 quid or so each month - I was spending 60 quid a week on fags... Similar for me also. As for spending 38 squid on a haircut, I just hang my wet head upside down over the bath and cut the ends off once a month. My hair is now one meter long from crown to longest and I haven't put my hard-earned into a h/dresser's pocket for around 15 years LOL.
