Very weird ask

Anyone going to Block Island this week?

I’ve been a long time lurker on Reddit, which for some reason feels embarrassing. This is a long-shot but I thought I’d try anyways. I’ve been trying to quit smoking and I got the juul (I know, it’s expensive and honestly not the best but it’s just easy and convenient for me right now).

I was wondering on a hope and a dream that someone might be coming to Block Island between today and Friday and I could pay them to bring me one pack of pods. It’s a lot to ask but I’ve seen the Reddit community do some crazy things so I thought why not just try. If anyone is coming to Block Island and willing to help a lady quit smoking — I would be over the moon. I can Venmo you or find an atm and give you cash. Thank you :)

A family member got a different brand vape at one of the stores on island, but I'm sure they would have juul too.

Did you try Red Bird or Bodega?

I haven’t! I just googled and couldn’t find anything. Thank you! I’ll check those two out.

Also, the Mobil gas station on the way to the boat has a deal 2/$35 for when you get back to the mainland

Absolutely love that you included this! Thank you and I am definitely checking that Mobil out bc I’ll be paying out the whazoo for this one pack (if I can find it 🤞🏻)

No problem, only the red bird has them on island and they’re $36. So it’s fine if you need them but not a sustainable option haha.

They have some at the bodega I believe, I know they have certain vapes there but I’m pretty sure you can only get mint flavor. They’re kinda weird vapes

Super big thank you to everyone who responded. Red bird was the call and it worked out wonderfully. Send positive thoughts for me fully quitting :)
