Hello all, I started smoking cigarettes when i turned 21. I smoked until I was 34. Then in December of 2010 i found a little kiosk at my local mall that sold electronic cigarettes. It was the company Smoke51. They got me off real cigarettes for about a month. The cost was too high and the performance of those e-cigs from smoke51 was not that great. So i went back to smoking real cigarettes. Then i went back to the mall about a month later and bought more supplies from smoke51 even though the cost was so high, That time they had just got in some cartomizers. I never had those. I was using the old style carts you fill. They did not work well. Anyhow I tried the cartomizers and they worked great. Still expensive but the worked. On my next trip to the mall to get more supplies for e-cigs the guy that worked at the kiosk told me about all these online stores that sold them at a much lower cost. That is when I got introduced to all the USA brands of e liquid and the quality products. That is was truly got me to quit smoking. I have not had a cigarette in over 2 years. I dont cough in the morning. I dont lose my breath any more. No more hacking to clear my throte. They worked, the totaly worked and continue to keep me off traditional cigarettes. Now I got my girl friend to try them, after she used them for about 2 month She completely quit smoking all together, She started with high nicotine and cut the nicotine content down every few weeks. Then she vaped on zero nicotine for a few weeks. Now she does not smoke or vape. To ban e-cigs would be so wrong, They have helped so many people to quit smoking. How could any one do that??? I am proof that they help and are much safer. I am not a doctor so im not going to say they are harmless, but I am proof that they are safer.
