You could have saved that $100 by quiting.

I haven't started rolling my own (yet), but I am getting ready to start growing my own.

Plantation House in England sells seeds over the net (coffinnails.com) complete with instructions for growing and drying.

Tobacco will grow just about anywhere in America. The Colonials used it for money and grew it in the streets.

I prefer the Premier cigarette tube myself.

Is the tobacco you're using a full flavor shag, a halfezware, or a milde shag?

You have no idea what crap they put in manufactured cigarettes.

A buddy of mine went to work for one of the tobbacco companies after leaving the Air Force, and he was bragging about how they have a machine on the production line that can do a zillion quality control checks by passing radiation through the cigarette and measuring the results.

I quit smoking that afternoon.

I've been rolling my own for two years now, after reading about it here on FR.

I love it. I smoke less. The cigs burn slower and taste better. Wouldn't dare go back.

WOW....how can you do 200 in 30 minutes?

I've been using my Supermatic for over a year and it still takes me 10 minutes a pack.

Anyway....I buy Stoker's #2 for $12.49 a pound and El Rey regular filter tubes @ 1.99 at Ingles grocery store.

I take out about a days worth from the bag (which I keep in the Fridge) and put it in a Tupperware container with a small, moistened sponge.

I use a spaghetti colander to clean out the shake and generally get two cartons out of the pound so the smokes are around .80 a pack.

Stoker's tastes like a 1966 L&M.

I smoke cigars myself, but I am amazed at the prices of cigarettes.

I buy boxes of one hundred chicos (small cigars) over the internet (mikescigars.com) for $ 23.00. These are wonderful little cigars, seconds of Macs and Partagas.

$23.00 per hundred is the price of cigarettes in our area!

The cigarette market is way out of wack with all the local taxes, and roll your own folks like you are sending a message through the marketplace. Good job!
