Over three years ago, people here in Free Republic told me about rolling my own and how much money I could save.
When the state of Maine raised my premiums to $45-$50 dollars a carton I said THAT'S IT!
So, I ordered that machine, went downtown, and bought the tobacco and the tubes. I have been rolling my own now for going on three years. I can roll a beautiful carton for under $8 dollars, and I am NOT paying into the state coffers anymore. They screwed ME for the last time!
