Smokers: Do you roll your own cigs?
I do, unbeliveably cheap. A 6oz canister of Drum makes about 500 cigs, for 10$

But I think I'm addicted to all the crap chemicals they add to Marlboros.

at rolling "never minds" after hand rolling cigs for 2 years. If hand rolling smokes is good enough for Johnny Depp, it's good enough for me.:smoke:

Though I have resorted to rolling the tabacco out of butts during 3 day coke binges way back in the day.

8. Must be smoking "pin hooters"...
If you can 500 out of a can. I used the German rohr-schtupping system and could get almost 200 out of a can of Drum. But no more. I quit 53 weeks ago.

If you use a machine it take 2x the tobacco. I like mine packed loose so pleanty of air gets in there, thereby allowing my a long cancer laden drag:smoke:

11. LOL! I liked 'em tight and fat.
Slow-burning, almost hard-to-keep-burning.... Could NOT get the hang of hand-rolling. Hand don't work as well as they did 20 years ago....

I liked it alright, it was just a pain doing the rolling. I smoke menthol now and I don't believe you can get that in roll your own.

12. I have before, and still do once in a while
If you want a flavorful smoke, grab a pouch of Three Castles next time you're at your local tobbaco shop. Great stuff.

13. If they had cigarette papers with filters
I might roll my own. But otherwise, I'll stick to Marlboros.

14. Actually, you can buy seperate filters
And roll your own. To do it right with a filter you would have to use a machine, but it is still cheaper than machine mades. Check out your local tobacco shop, or the internet.

16. We saved over $1,800 the first year we rolled our own
plus you don't have all the preservatives and stuff. OTOH, it is a bad habit-an addiction.
