Pack a Pack of Cigarettes
Many times while smoking a cigarette, the cherry will fall out because the tobacco is too loose or the cigarette is flicked too hard. To ensure that everything is packed tightly, you can "pack" a pack of cigarettes.
Steps
- Obtain a pack of cigarettes, but do not remove the cellophane.
- Place the pack in your dominating hand and turn the other hand around, so that the palm is facing up. You can also use a hard, straight object like a table.
- Grip the pack with your fingers on the side or the front & back. Do not place them on the bottom because it will make the pack uneven and cause the cigarettes to break.
- "Pack" or hit the object with the cigarette pack facing downwards or upside down. Use a medium force for a few times, then turn it around and repeat, just enough to get the tobacco pushed down in all of the cigarettes.
- Unravel and remove the cellophane and enjoy your packed cigarettes.
Tips
- If you already have removed the cellophane and want to pack the box, grip the box opening with your thumb and the other four fingers on the back of the box.
- Be sure that the entire box is hitting the object. Any uneven placements or corners may damage the box and cigarettes as well, causing them to break in half.
