DIYers do you still buy readymade juice?

[fyslexic ducker]

just wondering if and how often you buy premade juice
personally i have only brought a few bottles since starting to mix my own ,usually when i am waiting for some juice to steep or as a treat
what about the rest of you's?

I have not bought any since starting diy'ing..A friend I work with bought 2 premium juices during the week and I had a go of them....I preferred my diy and so did he...19 pound for 30ml of juice...no thanks


Edit*....If something comes along that sounds great and has good reviews I would probably try it.

I have bought some since DIYing, not often but its a very delicious juice

I sometimes buy some hedons bite as a little treat but mainly vape my diy

dont get me wrong i have no qualms about paying over the odds for a decent juice..but in all honesty it seems to me a lot of the "named brands" just slap the word "premium" on just to increase profit margins sure there nice but 50% over the usual price nice im not so sure

Every few months or so I'll buy some, especially if I feel like I'm just going through the motions with my diy. However most bought juices seem too sweet to me now or have a weird aftertaste.

Afterwards I'm happy to get back to mixing again, and sometimes with a renewed energy to come up with new recipes or modify old ones.

I've been mixing my own for a good few years now, and I used to be evangelical about only vaping my own.
But nowadays I tend to treat myself every now and then to some juices that I know I'll like.
It's not that they're necessarily better (although in some cases they definitely are), it's just a treat.
I look at it like this...I was a chef or ten years and still massively enjoy cooking (moreso now than when I did it for a living).
But it's still nice to go out and let somebody else cook.....

I've been mixing a couple of months now and not been very successful so have bought juices to tied me over. But I think I'm slowly getting to grips with it all now. I made a pink lemonade last weekend which is quite nice just a little tweak is needed. Also did a snake oil clone which is still steeping with it having Bavarian cream in the mix. If that turns out well then I won't be buying much juice from now on.

Thers a couple of premade juices I still buy (@manabush and @PlumeBlu )Their recipes are so complex that I couldnt get near them, -so I treat myself to about 30-40mls premade a month- and DIY the rest.
Because I MTL I only use about 3-4 mls a day, it leaves me with a well stocked larder and a low £20/month juice bill . That'll do for me
