Every fortnight we run a ‘guest blog’ feature about the ‘Vaping Journey’ of one of our customers.
\nThis feature is about the Vapestick and it comes from Paula T. White in London…<\/p>\n

Backing to early 90s, when I was a teen, people used to see cigarettes as an elegant accessory<\/strong>. I started to smoke as a bet from school colleagues who said I couldn’t. From that day, I started to buy cigarette cartons secretly. At first it was a carton per week, then two, three… by the time I went to uni I was already on at least one pack a day. After, I always had an excuses not to do normal things. I’d stay with my parents or go to closed places – I thought I would die if I wasn’t having the next cigarette. First time I felt really bad really was when I was pregnant and smoking about 20 cigs a day…<\/p>\n

I used to live in a big house just outside of London, with a baby indoors. I always had a garden to have my minute with my best friend – the cig! Moving back to central London, I didn’t have a garden anymore, just walls inside a very little flat. I definitely could not smoke inside the property having a small boy. He didn’t need be a smoker (not yet), so in May 2012 seeing my panic, my partner started to buy e-cigs on the local pharmacies trying to help me out.<\/strong><\/p>\n

I tried a few brands. I started getting them from Poundland and also found some nice, expensive ones that I got in US. I think have tried about 80% of the brands available in the UK.
\nOne day, we were to a big supermarket and saw a rechargeable starter kit from Vapestick<\/a>, but I resisted as I didn’t wanted the headache of having one more thing to remember to charge, but when I saw the price I was very tempted. The whole kit with refills was the same price of the disposable Vapestick I had been buying. So I decided to try it.

After trying the starter pack, I decided to stick to it as I very much liked it. I was often getting the refills from the same big supermarket I got my starter kit from. One day, they didn’t have any. Or the next day. Then, I decided to google where else i could buy the refills. The Electric Tobacconist was the very first on the list and I opened the website to have a look. It was very pleasant, well presented, very professional-looking and best of all had very good prices! (at least better than the supermarket I had been using).<\/p>\n

Vaping has changed my life massively<\/strong>. Firstly, the amount of money that I now spend is nothing if I compare how much I used to pay for my Marlboros. I don’t stink anymore, I am healthier and happier. Generally, i have more energy to do normal tasks. I sleep better, don’t have migraines any more and can speak at closer proximity to people without being afraid to have that disgraceful smell coming out my mouth! It;s been over two years now and I barely remember being a smoker! I just love my Vapestick!<\/p>\n

I always recommend The Electric Tobacconist & Vapestick. It’s an electric combination!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
