So... I used to buy scratch off lottery tickets pretty much everytime I got gas or stopped into a place i'd say give me a few tickets ....
Now after roll searching a couple of months my new lottery ticket replacement is cracking open a roll and looking for " winners "
It's free and you dont loose any money,and you win if you find something.....
Think about it for a second someone on here found a close 92 cam worth thousands,people have found 72 doubleddied and so on.
Its free and eazy to do.... I get so excited when I crack open a roll ... Now if I can just over come the " roll searching insomnia "
that I get i'll be o.k

 Roll searching is so rewarding. There's no bottom except face value. Happy hunting to all! If you search enough rolls, you will be rewarded, I guarantee it!  |

You can never lose money in roll searching as long as you know what you're keeping.
All the coins you dont want you can just bring back to the bank and get a full refund!!

You can always trade in that nonwinning ticket (roll) for another till you win! How cool is that.

A 92 CAM is worth thousands?
And yes I agree. Roll searching is my first hobby that costs me nothing.:)

I still buy some scratch off tickets because 250k a year for life will allow me to do coins full time.
I absolutely love roll searching. It is basically treasure hunting. I have yet to find anything of great value but
it is so exciting when you find something special. And you are correct it costs nothing but time. I usually do it
when I wake up at 4 in the morning and cannot sleep. Someday I will hit that lottery, more than likely with the
coins, but hopefully both. Happy Hunting.

ive found more silver than the top prize of many $1 scratch offs, the only thing you have to lose roll searching is time. And it sure is a heck of a lot more fun that scratching a card lol.

Roll hunting is buying lottery tickets that you can return for a full refund when you don't win.

The hunt is the best part... roll searching doesn't end. The tellers start to recognize you, but that isn't all that bad. I love roll searching and keeping records of what I find!
