You can save money on paintballs by making your own "reballs" at home.
Paintball is not a cheap hobby. Your marker and gear amount to a major expense, but the paintballs themselves will take the most toll on your wallet. You can save money if you adjust your playing habits, like taking your gun off automatic or teaming up with friends to purchase paintballs in bulk. You could also buy cheap paintballs, but they often won't shoot as straight and sometimes even explode in the barrel. Reusable paintballs are another option. These "reballs" cost more than regular paintballs, but since they can be reused, the cost per use lowers the overall expense. Finally, some paintball enthusiasts have taken to making their own paintballs with a bit of flour and hot glue.

Instructions
1. The larger the bowl of flour, the more paintballs you can make at one time.
Place a large amount of flour in a large bowl and level it to form a smooth surface.
2. Push the model paintball into the flour until it is sunk to its halfway point. Carefully remove the paintball and repeat the procedure, making enough half-molds to cover the flour's entire surface area.
3. Always use caution with a hot glue gun.
Use the hot glue gun to fill each mold with glue.
4. Allow the glue to set for five to 10 minutes.
5. Glue two half-molds together to form a ball and allow to dry for another 10 minutes.
