A lot of people still think that electronic cigarettes are expensive. Some consider electronic cigarettes as unable to recreate the same smoking sensations you get from tobacco cigarettes. In reality, modern electronic cigarettes are more than capable of producing the same – if not better – smoking sensations, plus they are much more affordable than tobacco cigarettes.

A high quality starter kit with two batteries, 6 refill cartridges, and a charger usually costs around $60. Bear in mind that each refill cartridge is equal to up to 2 packs of tobacco cigarette; to make our calculation balanced and easy to understand, we are going to assume that each refill cartridge is equal to 1.5 packs of cigarettes. This means you already get an equivalent of 9 packs of cigarettes with your starter kit. With the price of a tobacco cigarette now around $6, you are only spending $6 more to get the starter kit.

To continue smoking the electronic cigarette, you don’t actually need to purchase another starter kit. You can buy a pack of 10 vaping refill cartridges for less than $18 (including free shipping), so the cost of each cartridge is less than $2. That’s more than $7 worth of savings compared to the price of 1.5 packs of tobacco cigarettes.

Since there are no other costs associated with the use of electronic cigarettes, you can actually save a lot of money on cigarettes in the long run. Assuming you smoke one pack of tobacco cigarettes per day, you only need to spend $36 per month when you smoke an electronic cigarette as opposed to the $180 for smoking tobacco cigarettes. That’s a monthly saving of $144 – quite a whopping amount nonetheless – or a total saving of $1,728 a year.

So, what are you waiting for? Switch to an electronic cigarette today and enjoy the healthier, more affordable way of smoking.
