How Much Does Vaping Really Cost You?

Vaping has exploded across the U.S. and North America, but have you ever stopped to think about how much it’s costing you? Beyond the upfront price of pods, e-liquids, and devices, vaping can quietly drain your wallet—and your health. If you're considering quitting, you're not alone. Let's break down the numbers, from how much vapers spend to how many are ready to kick the habit.

‍

Vaping Costs More Than You Think

On the surface, vaping seems cheaper than smoking, but those costs stack up fast. The average American vaper spends $82.22 every month on vaping products. That adds up to almost $1,000 a year—and if you're someone who vapes and smokes, you're likely spending even more. Dual users can spend about $118.77 a month on cigarettes alone.

‍

But here's the kicker: vaping isn’t just about the price of e-liquids and coils. It impacts your health too. Research from the University of California found that healthcare costs for e-cigarette users shoot up by about $2,024 per person every year. Multiply that across the U.S. and the bill hits a staggering $15 billion annually.

Thinking About Quitting? You’re in Good Company

‍

If you’ve thought about quitting, you're part of a growing crowd. A survey found that over half of e-cigarette users between 15 and 36 want to quit vaping. In fact, about one-third of them tried to quit in the past year. Adults feel the same way—more than 60% of adult vapers have said they’re ready to stop.

It’s not always easy to quit, but the desire is there. And that’s the first step.

How Much Do You Vape in a Year?

Ever wonder how many puffs you take in a day? If you’re like the average daily vaper, you might be hitting your device about 200 times a day. Over the course of a year, that’s roughly 73,000 puffs.

For perspective, that’s the same as taking a puff every minute for 50 straight days. When you think about it that way, it's no surprise why so many people are ready to put the vape down for good.

Quitting Could Save You Thousands

Quitting doesn’t just clear your lungs—it can save you serious cash. Imagine reclaiming that $1,000 a year (or more) and putting it towards something you’ve been dreaming about. Plus, cutting vaping out of your life lowers your risk of health issues, which can save you from those hefty medical bills down the road.

If you're ready to quit, know that resources are out there to help. Whether it's through quit lines, apps, or support from friends, quitting vaping could be one of the best decisions you make for your health—and your wallet.
