For a mere $250, electric machines for making cigarettes could be yours. If you have ever been an aficionado of the loose tobacco then you know just how convenient it is to roll your own cigarettes. Perhaps you enjoy the fine smell of the tobacco pouch as you open it, and maybe the ritual of rolling a smoke holds a bit of nostalgic meaning for you. In the past you probably had a little hand roller that would fit in your jacket pocket or book bag, and you liked to roll a smoke just before you would actually enjoy it. Yet over time, you probably sold out your convictions about saving money and started buying your packs of smokes from the corner store or the supermarket.

Today, electric cigarette machine manufacturers want to persuade you to remember your smoking roots and go back to rolling your own cigs. Electric cigarette rolling machines are for sale on the Internet and they are specifically targeting the smoker who has matured and is no longer simply rolling a cig before smoking it. Instead, their target audience is now the smoker who purchases cigarettes by the carton and who – like most anybody else - bemoans the high prices that a pack of smokes demands.

Yet is it truly worth $250 for an electric cigarette making machine? Manufacturers would have you believe that the answer is yes, but anyone who is already grumbling over the high cost of cigarettes might think differently. In addition to the foregoing, the idea that a somewhat unsightly machine that takes up quite a bit of counter space will bring back the memories of times gone by is indeed somewhat questionable.

Undeterred, the makers of the electric cigarette machine claim that they have proof that not will such an electric cigarette machine help you recapture your youth, but it will also save you a bundle of money. The math behind this idea is quite simple: if a carton of cigarettes costs about $35 and a pound of tobacco and filtered tubes run $20, you will save about $35, since one pound of tobacco will allow you to roll about two cartons worth of cigarettes.

While the electric cigarette machine is only really worth your while if you actually enjoy the process and foresee that you will do so for an extended period of time – a couple of years at least – the electric cigarette machine will pay for itself in that period of time. While a quick-roller electric cigarette machine will never help you to recapture your youth of feelings of newfound freedom, an electric cigarette rolling machine will permit you to hold on to your money, which in turn could be used to purchase a Corvette which will help you with feeling young once more.
