Just checking to see how many more found the wonders of Njoy/others. I have really quit smoking and don't miss it, as long as I have my pacifier..LOL.
I actually find that I feel better physically when I just use my e-ciggy. Smoking actual Cigs, makes me nervous, sick and coughy. I'm hooked on a better thing, now, I think. The tobacco Cos will probably do a study that shows the E-Cig causes more cancer than theirs..LOL! Are you all finding this as good as I do?

I haven't quit yet Sally but that's because I keep the real cigs in the house. Jim's not ready yet either. I think that's the main thing is we have to be ready to get rid of the real and only have the fake. Once that happens I know I will be sucking it like it's my baba. lol
I have cut back though! I am only smoking 4-5 a day if that. I notice if I grab the njoy ncig it gives me more nicotine than the real and the urge to smoke is gone. I am using the higher filters. I think they may be too much though. It makes me dizzy and I don't need any help in that department. lmao

I haven't bought it yet.
After looking at the options several times, the thought finally occurred to me that the nicotine taste would be AMERICAN tobacco flavoring. I don't like American cigarettes, and Canadian are very, very different, so I've put it off until I can find a mfger that makes our flavoring. I suppose I could try one of the other flavors, but as a die-hard tobacco taste freak, I don't think that would satisfy me. I wish I could just try them all first, so that maybe I would find one I like. I was SO excited about it too. Cherie

Cherie, looks like Canada is going to ban it. Check out this report. I found it trying to find a Canadian e-cig seller.

Hi Sandy.
I KNEW that was going to happen, but I was curious which excuse they would come up with for doing it. I can't copy the quote for some reason, but they've decided they should be illegal because: - nicotine is addictive (yet they still sell cigarettes and tax them at about $6.00 a pack) - they are hazardess to the elderly, pregnant women and children if they "smoke" them (same as cigarettes, but they can tax them at about $6.00 a pack) - they haven't tested them (and as if they will?!?) So, cigarettes are NOT banned, but e-cigs should be? That's Health Canada for ya (and our government who hasn't figured out a way to tax them yet)!!! Cherie

Your not alone. America is going after them too. It doesn't make any sense. :-(

I don't know if Japan made them first, but Njoy where we got our second set, is from America. Our first set was from China and we decided we didn't want to wait for customs to get our supplies. lol

I saw an article somewhere this week that the FDA was looking into banning the ecigs... or a least tighter regs on them. BUT just follow the money.. how many states now depend on cig taxes for their revenue? I know a couple of southern states are trying to raise the cig taxes again.

How in the world is the FDA going to justify banning e-cigs, because of the nicotine content and keep tobacco cigs with nicotine, legal???
They will just figure out a way to tax the e-cigs or they will have to remove the nicotine from real cigs......and then watch thew **** hit the fan.. It's a real quagmire for our honest politicians, aint it....Muahahahaha!!!!
