To split and reroll my ciggies

[alfiethekittycat]

I smoke about 10 a day roll ups, My mum has been on holiday and brought me 200 ciggies back, If I smoke them as they are will prob smoke 20 a day as I'm so used to roll ups, with roll ups I can leave them in the ashtray and they don't burn away so have a few drags every now and then.

I've been breaking them up and rerolling them to make them last longer but had 2 friends visit today who thought I was mad.
They think that cos they didn't cost me nothing I should smoke them as they are,

I have put a couple of packs aside for when i'm out and about but aibu to reroll the rest even though they didn't cost me nothing?

do what makes you happy - id say.

yabu for smoking (unless I'm drunk, in which case I'd like asneaky drag)

Thank you nickschick that's what I thought,

Lol Baby I know I shouldn't smoke at all but I have cut down since rolling my own,

what ever you think, but re rolling normal ciggs? isn't it a nightmare, don't they split the rolling paper?

Plus they taste awful.

You're mad to smoke.

But if you're going to anyway, smoke as they are, re-roll, whatever floats your boat.

Yeah, you can get two rollies out of a ciggie. :)

The rolling paper doesn't split, I have been breaking up the cigs into a box so it is only tobacco thenrolling them with filters ad ciggie papers.

I'd probably reroll too to save the money I'm rather tight fisted though to be honest My MIL smokes normal while she makes the FIL smoke roll ups he quitting for a second time as they nearly lost the house and need the money but shes refusing to give up her £10 a day habit

Nothing wrong with re-rolling them, just to re-assure you...:-

1. if you use filters anyway, then they taste just fine
2. you can, at your leisure, remove the massive great twigs that seem to find their way into duty free fags
3. You get 400 fags instead of 200

To conclude YANBU

I did smoke normal fags till about 8 years ago when I couldn't justify spending that on myself each week,
I buy cigarette tobacco now, 2 packs cost about 6 quid which lasts me all week, get papers and filters from the puond shop so saving an awful lot.
Its just if I reroll them then they will last me a couple of months,
I guess i'm just feeling a bit shit cos my friends laughed at me, I did tell them to shut it but they seemed to think cos they were free I should just smoke them till they were gone.

Personally, I would find the baccy too dry to roll but then I hate the taste of the tobacco in pre-rolled cigs. And yes, smoking is hideous and stupid etc.

Do whatever you like. YANBU!

it won't work as the baccy is different.
but I can understand, smoking a tailor made is like smoking a lamp post

What won't work 2shoes?

as long as u like how they have ended up and are saving £££, do it then! Your mum should bring you some baccy next time lol.

my mum lives in spain, thats the only reason i still smoke, as i get her or her dh to bring some baccy over. it's a disgrace how much we have to pay here.

Just stop smoking, it's bad for you.

Lots of things are bad for us. Lynette do you never have the odd drink or eat the wrong food?

I do not like normal baccy piratecat I find it too wet and don't like the smell which is why I smoke concept cigarette tobacco as its much drier and more like normal fags only much cheaper.

oh, i never heard of that type, didn't realise that's what you normally smoke.

oh if you like the drier tobacco - do you know any Polish people - or Russian (or that part of the world). I've in the past got 500g (no that's not a typo LOL) of Polish/Russian tobacco - it's much drier than the tobacco you can buy here.....and of course 500g lasts a very long time.........

As long as you use filters though. There's something like 113 extra chemicals in straights compared with rolling baccy, would be even worse for you than 'normal' smoking if you didn't.
