I'm seriously thinking of downsizing as I acquired the 5 bedroom family barn in my divorce and it's draining me completely financially. We've been here 17 years, every bedroom is full both of furniture and crap. I'm dreading going through it all. On the plus side I suppose I won't have to buy new furniture, just pick the best bits and scrap/donate the rest. Now my youngest has moved out there's only me and my eldest left and I know she won't be here forever. I live in Herne bay and work in Canterbury so I think it's time to 'cut my cloth according to my pattern' as my mum used to say and get a smaller place nearer work. I worry if something big went wrong in this place, like a roof leak or boiler failure I simply wouldn't have the resources to fix it. The only snag is that house prices are higher in canterbury so I'd need every penny of value from this house, which in turn will require some investment to tart it up a bit. Big decisions but the time has come I think, so 17 years worth of crap, here I come...daunted much!  |

Thankyou! Wow! I share a birthday with 2 vendors...that's gotta be worth a discount?!  my daughter has given me a really cute wooden vape box for my liquids bless her. Happy birthday to my fellow celebrators, may you have a lovely day, even if like me you're just chilling out in front of the TV not worrying about work tomorrow because you've taken an annual leave day as a pressie to yourself  |

I'm a latte and cappuccino lover and my kids bought me a dolce gusto melody for Christmas, I've used it at least once a day ever since. I love it, I have a quick cappuccino before work and chill out with a caramel latte when I get home. We get 3 boxes of pods for a tenner in Asda and I've discovered a cheap source of coffee syrups in lidl, they do caramel, vanilla or hazelnut for £1.50 a bottle, much cheaper than buying online or in costas. The machine resembles a miserable duck according to the kids and is very easy to use, just fill the water tank, shove in a pod, select the size of your cup and press the button..simples.. I believe the tassimo is very similar, we went for the dolce gusto because it does hot chocolate and chilled drinks like peach or lemon tea which we quite fancied

Thanks for the replies, the guy who has the shop is not a Vaper, and has never Smoked, I think I'm probably the only person he's met who knows anything about Vaping, other than business contacts,I'm almost 50, white and working class. He's in his early 20's and Muslim, I fit the profile of a Vaper much better than he does, BUT I reckon he knows more about running a business than I do, like I said he wants to concentrate on wholesale and Importing, leaving me to impart my (not much) experience of Vaping to New or Beginner Vapers. I'm more interested in what YOU guys would want if you walked in to a B&M Vape Shop, if I take the job I'd intend to provide the best Customer Experience I could. I know the guy wants to provide quality products, that's what he stocks now, so thats a head start over most B&M's (apologies to the decent B&M Shops, I know there are a few out there!!) If I were a new prospective vaper walking in to your shop for the first time I'd probably want to have a go on a basic set up, I know my local shop lets customers try out flavours etc before buying. Obviously knowing how much I was going to save through vaping instead of smoking would be important, and a recommendation to visit the AAEC forum of course lol. By the time I found my local shop I'd read most of the info on here and had already got my first kit, but being able to see different equipment in the flesh and have the pro's and cons explained was very helpful. I'm sure you'll give excellent customer service and have a lot of fun doing it....good luck! |

Amen to that stonethecrows, I have to climb 4 flights of stairs where I work, pre vaping I needed oxygen at the top, now I don't even need to stop talking to draw breath! Tis a miracle... |

I have found I'm rather partial to caramel/toffee flavoured liquids and I wondered if anyone had found any really nice ones. I've tried minty the toff which is nice and vapology's caramel is my current favourite. I'm sure there are many more out there and I wondered which I should try next. I'm talking ready made as I haven't started mixing as yet
