That seems to be the basic pattern of use, with
variations of the number of times the choice of
numbers is made. Often the messages inside are
'fortunes' like "You will marry Dracula", or rude
like "You Smell!". Variations include the central
European Heaven and Hell, and in the USA
there is also a variation with cooties
inside. See
also international variations on the
