I am only on the 2.5 Tirz my second week. I have 9 more vials left of the 15 mg and I am looking to make my first purchase with JEEP Halloween promotion. and not sure what what vials to buy for future use. They have the TR30 for $95 is that a good next step or should I go to the 60 for $190? I also want to get some Reta but I just purchased a 24mg vial from Nexaph should I bother with a 20mg vial from JEEP? Since I am just getting a head for a future step. It also looks like I need to make a MOQ of $300....Please help LOL my head is exploading with the numbers! I am not good with numbers. I want to keep it as close to $300 since I just purchased a total of $450 in Solana. Thanks in advance!!!
Help! I need help with vial size etc.

Let me see if I am understanding this correctly. You are on 2.5 mg of Tirz and you have nine 15 mg vials left, and you are wanting to buy more? Those vials should last you several months even at the normal 2.5/5/7.5/10 titration schedule. Which, depending on how you react to the peptide, may not even be necessary at the normal 4-week interval.
Am I crazy? I want to get in on some deals....I have a problem when it comes to deals. 😏
You're not crazy. Hoarding is a virtue.
That being said, I'd recommend waiting for a holiday sale, and probably go with 30's just because they're generally the most flexible in terms of whatever dosage you may be on at any given time.

You’re not crazy. I microdose Sema and Reta which means my 2 SSA kits of Sema30 will last me just over 46 years at current dose. I figure there may come a day where my fat friends need a favor and I can gift them the joy of being thin without the high startup cost of doctors and prescriptions.
I’ve been eyeballing the JEEP prices after reading the Jano results like a hoarder in a Goodwill. 😆
You are not crazy. I have wayyyy more peptides than I could use in a year or two. But being 2 weeks in, you may consider giving it a couple more weeks or months before you decide to buy a ton. The deals will be there if you decide to buy a bunch. Before I knew what I was doing (not that I do now, but more than a few months ago), I bought a bunch of stuff that I probably do not need or could not possibly use in a semi-reasonable time frame.

Honestly, I've also had the urge to buy a lifetime supply. What if I somehow lose access to grey?? Sadly, my funds do not align with that wish. Not with all the other peps I want to try, too 😆
Ok. If we assume that you are going to end up at 10 mg of tirz per week, you have enough for 16-17 months. I'm not sure about dosing on reta, but I would wait to see how the tirz works out before you buy more. Likewise, I would give yourself 6 months on tirz before investing in more of that. Some people, like myself, are happy with tirz and plan to be on it indefinitely, while others like reta or something else better.

Oops, I was thinking you had bought the T 60 already. With 9 vials of T15, you have 13.5 weeks of a 10 mg dose.
So that's a pretty good amount of time especially since I am only at 2.5 . I will do what Zippy suggest and wait til holiday sales. I wonder when those start?

This is exactly what I was going to say. You just started tirz but saw a shiny new thing and want that...you should wait. Buy if you want, but go through the usual dosing schedule of tirzepatide first. If you stall after a few months, maybe go to reta. But unless you started on reta first, waiting for tirz to work is the best idea. (To the OP of course)
I say this with love and not preaching at all. Just looking out for you. ❤️
I feel it is already working. My food noise is 90+% gone which is huge for me. I am losing about 1.4 # per week. Not a lot but I will take it, I would be happier if it was 2#. I couldn't do that with eating right and counting calories. But the calories are mostly estimated.
I have not taken any comments as preachy! And I appreciate any and all advice!

And that's about normal. Anywhere from 1-2 pounds a week is good. Hydrate often (i drink about 120 ounces a day), make sure your protein intake is high (aim for the hundreds) and titrate up to 5mg after 4 weeks. You've got this!

Wish I knew!
If you are very, very lucky and able to meet your goals on 2.5mg of tirz, you'd currently have enough for 1 year + 2 weeks.

Turn back now, man. I'm gonna need them to come out with a peptide that stops me from compulsively hoarding peptides. The inside of my freezer looks like orderly and still worrisome mental illness barely held in check.

I love Excel. When I was wading into how much to buy, and how much my pocketbook was going to take, it was great.
Laying "how much" out by hand isn't too bad.
Weeks 1-2-3-4 = 4 weeks at 2.5mg = 10mg
Weeks 5-6-7-8 = 4 weeks at 5.0mg = 20mg
Weeks 9-10-11-12 = 4 weeks at 7.5 = 30mg
Weeks 13-14-15-16 = 4 weeks at 10mg = 40mg
Weeks 17-18-19-20 = 4 weeks at 12.5mg = 50mg
Weeks 21-22-23-24 = 4 weeks at top dose 15 = 60mg.
Maybe you're seeing the total/month (4 weeks) has a pattern. Not much to do with anything but is cool to see. 🙃
SO... For the first 24 weeks you'll take 210mg of Tirz *IF you titrate up on the research study's schedule. (Many do not but that's another discussion.)
Which tells us some things.
1. If you're looking toward a kit of 20mg vials : 20mg x 10 vials = 200mg which gets you almost all the way through 24 weeks. We know that the first vial is going to last 6 or more weeks.
2. Some people prefer to use up a vial in a month. 20mg vials would last longer than a month only* the first month. If you buy a 60mg vial, it would take 3 of the early months to work through - that's 12 punctures. *IF you're on research schedule. Understanding your risk and what you want/don't want is important.
3. Another case: if you get a kit of 10s, you know 10x10mg = 100mg will last about 16 weeks. If you need to order more you'll need to know timing IF you end up not hoarding vials like a few of us. 🙃
4. Many 10s would mean upper doses would take multiple vials per dose. Two vials per needle dulls the needle - again looking at risk and what you want/don't want. (There are gear (hardware) workarounds, bringing more $, more education.)
All of the above is how I decided vial size for me: 10s and 20s seemed good to start with, mayyybe I'd consider 30s if it was an amazing deal. It was also about the price point I was willing to put out for a single purchase.
This is also how I compared 16 weeks of Reta vs Tirz vs .... ect. which is what started it all. Which is least expensive? How do I compare when it's 2.5mg to start this one and 0.5mg of that?

Part 2: Understanding pricing is easier with spreadsheets.
Type price in one column, mine's in E. Total mg in the next one, F (Full kit if it's a kit). Take price and divide by total mg, that goes in G. So in G2: "=E2/F2" Put the vendor's name on the same line, maybe Column D. Maybe today's date in column H. Label what peptide it is somewhere. Rinse, repeat, compare.
This is where the lid started coming off of my head, Place A is charging 10x of what Place S on the same peptide??
Is this group buy a good sale or not?
I also keep track of payments accepted, MOQ, shipping costs, Venmo with 3% fee, all that... so when I see vendor S has an amazing sale for xx cents/mg, I can see that they only take crypto and that doesn't work for me at the moment. But when my preferred vendor has a sale that compares to that great price, I know to jump in.

There’s literally no need to follow Eli Lilly’s titration schedule with grey.
