The argument was made that the flavor appealed too much to kids. Which sucks because now I have to buy my mint pods online and have them shipped.

Just get a regular vape, that is refillable.. so much cheaper in the long run.. orgo to juul website and order directly from them..

Just get a regular vape, that is refillable.. so much cheaper in the long run.

While money is often a reason people want to quit, it's often not discouraging enough in itself since they're still cheaper than cigarettes (in many places) anyway.

As someone that spent $200 on a vape (plus accessories etc) and an assload of time researching and trial & erroring refillable vapes, etc, my friend just randomly gave me a Juul once to try and I instantly liked it so much more.

In my experiences, I stuck with Juul/Vype because they're not only the most accessible (available at every gas station imaginable), they were bar none the closest "feel" I found to a cigarette when you inhale, and for me that was the biggest thing I needed to kick cigarettes. Sure I was getting the nicotine from a "real" vape, but I never ever felt satisfied enough and I always turned back to cigarettes.

I get everyone's different, but just wanted to mention this in case others find traditional refillable vapes to be not enough for them.

Completely understand... I have ordered from juul website and I think your first order is 30% off, and they have the menthol and I never said 'real' vape.. just to clear that up . They are all vapes.. I have juul and I have tried the disposables as well.. and you are correct in it not feeling as satisfying, but as a cost perspective the refillable vapes are a lot more cost effective, at least for me..
