The large Rolling Machines are now illegal since 2013...when the tobacco company’s fought owners of these machines since so many people were changing over from store bought brands..... The tobacco industry claimed the businesses who had these machines were ‘manufacturing’ cigarettes....Tobacco Comany’s won the case and all these machines have been removed or stored from these businesses.
You can still buy the roll your own machines, but businesses that roll them for you are now illegal.
A couple of people at work roll their own now, using pipe tobacco, and say it costs them about $20 for the tobacco.... which includes the tube costs....gives them ‘3 plus cartoons’. Saving thousands a year they said.
They both claim the first thing they noticed was they stopped coughing mornings....supposedly because there are no chemicals in the tobacco they use.
The place I go to has two of these large roiling machines. They add tobacco and place in tubes and you roll your own by putting the finished product back into the box the tubes came from.
