Out of VG, who's got the best store brand?
submitted about 11 years ago by nugs_mckenzie

So I was low on VG and placed an order thinking it would get here relatively soon but I was wrong. Now I'm out of VG and have 15mls of juice to last me till this order comes. 15ml will last about a day and a half if that so I'm cutting it really close. I want to go buy VG from the store to hold me over till my package comes. Which store carries the best VG that doesn't taste like doody?

CVS brand, or Humco from most big box stores.

Humco is what you'll find at Walmart, pharmacies, grocery stores, etc. and is repackaged for the retailer. If its in the 177 ml its Humco. Not the best and not the cheapest but it handy in a pinch. Plus the HDPE bottles with the squeeze caps aren't bad either.

If it's USP it should all be nearly identical

Use CVS VG. I have a bottle of Humco, and was assured that it tasted fine, but any liquid I use it in tastes like burned cotton.

I don't have a CVS locally, so I did not actually. Thanks for the info.

Wilton, though sadly only sold in 4 oz. bottles. I've heard bad things about Humco.

The stuff you get on amazon w/ prime called Essential Depot 1 qt is bomb. I'm sure you can go half a day without it, or pay the 3.99 next day shipping :D

You can find NOW glycerin at health food stores (or at Whole Foods if you have one close by); I think it's considerably better than the stuff you get at the big box stores.
