Competitive Landscape
In the competitive landscape of vapor pens in Illinois, Good News has shown a dynamic performance with fluctuating rankings over the past few months. In August 2024, Good News held the 15th position, improving to 14th in September, and reaching 13th in October, before slipping back to 15th in November.
