I don't vape, but I can't imagine they're cheaper than re-usable vaping devices in the long run either.

[-] Feidry@lemmy.world 4 points 10 months ago

I do vape. The long-term reusable vapes are a LOT more expensive than the disposable ones. My current setup cost 100 USD before batteries or coils.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 25 points 10 months ago

No, I mean long-term as in costs. Over a year or two, won't you be saving money?

[-] Feidry@lemmy.world 7 points 10 months ago

Yes, in the long term you are saving money but if you have 20 bucks but not 100, what vape are you buying? That's the point I'm making.

[-] Nougat@kbin.social 5 points 10 months ago

Honestly, even for twenty bucks, you can probably get a cheap rechargeable vape kit.

[-] GiveMemes@jlai.lu 5 points 10 months ago

You can definitely get a shitty one that will have you back on the disposables within a few weeks until you save enough for a good system. Source: been there done that lol

Yeah, smoke cigarettes again!

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

It's no cheaper, we're talking about someone that can't afford to spend 100$ to save money long term.

Spoken like someone who never got hooked on nicotine.

"Why don't heroin users just stop doing heroin?"

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 2 points 10 months ago

Was a smoker for over a decade but it wasn't causing me financial issues.

Their point is: Lack of money doesn't keep you from smoking.
You'll eat less instead.
