Switching to vaping saves you money!
Compared to smoking, vaping is cheap. Switching completely could save you £700-£1000 a year,
Costs vary but a vape starter kit can be as little as £10. From then on you’ll only need to buy e-liquid and replacement parts when you need them.
Many vapers can save even more money by mixing their own e-liquid, bringing costs down even further.
All Stop Smoking Services are vape-friendly and most of them can offer vape starter kits to switch completely from tobacco.
