It's why I quit many, many years ago; it just makes you STOOPUD. No, I don't and won't pay that price, nor would I imbibe in skunkweed that may be
full of pesticides. Check the legal 'gourmet shops' and see what people will pay for extra-high quality 'lawn' these days (prices do vary for
quality; more bang for your buck, so to speak). I suggest you look in Aspen, Colo. for starters.
It's a WEED, that grows anywhere, any climate, and has been re-re-refined into hybrid strains (not your Kentucky Blue Grass any more). It does cost
more than other recreational substances that require a series of chemical and mechanical alterations to make them useable, when all 'lawn' requires is
basically water and tertiary care.
Hopefully in my lifetime the majority will come to its' senses and decriminalize. I believe Colorado just got a $75 Million boost to its' school
systems this last year. The last post by Wolf of $20-45 is accurate, from your City corner coffee-pot cafes; I was referring to 'designer-quality'
for the elite and famous. Even still, at $20/gram is 280% more than 'The Good Old Daze", ain't it? And, it's still just a WEED. Dirt, water,
light. Easy-peasy. Meantime, I enjoy my 5 p.m. martinis, and no, I don't buy Grey Goose either.

280%
The stuff in the stores now is 4x more potent than the skank you smoked in the 1970s, and inflation since the 1970s has changed relative value of
dollar
I hear that in Washington the legal weed prices have been falling ever since legalization. Market economy at work! Too much supply? Too little
demand?

Just spoke with a guy from california that said the medical stuff could go for 20 dollars a gram top shelf he says. I guess they have different
shelves. making it 580 dollars and ounces. so Perhaps there is someone selling it for the price you stated. just seems incredabally pricey for a weed.
so how would one get a license to sell and grow it? seems there is a ton of money to be made.

what has happened in 20 years????
1995, what a great year, the middle of the first Clinton administration, I remember it fondly! Here we are 20 years later and it looks like Hillary
will get her turn,... hooray!

I suppose the $ of weed in one's life, indicates how old
one is, for you whipper snappers, I remember $15, could
have been Eucalyptus for all we knew

Cheapest California Motel 6 is at Buttonville off hwy 5, near Bakersfield. $35 per night. It's cheap because of the smell of cows from the nearby
stockyard. It permeates the air everywhere.

High quality grass is going for about $60-$80 per gram (in the States that allow it).
Then all other questions are moot point. |

Veeeery revealing. Thanks. I have learned that after 10 years Nomads don't know or don't care how, why or where their kids punch holes in their skin
to display body jewelry but they know, down to the centavo, the cost of weed.
Hijacked or not I may start another one of these threads just to find out more about you.

Gee - you all know so much about the price and kinds of weed. just sayin ...
I don't notice that younger people are quite so "out there" with goth - hardly see them anymore. Tattoos are prevalent. Low-slung baggie pants with
underwear showing is a style a small fraction wears. And thank heaven they're not wearing pajama bottoms to school anymore.
Beer at the airport is probably more like $4, but why would you want to drink a lot of beer at the airport when, for instance, San Diego is the
apparently the craft brew hub of the nation.
Lots of pro baseball cheap seats.
Senior rates and matinees for movies - $6 at a lot of places and usually just a handful of people inside. RedBox rental for me - $1.49.
The draught, electronic devices, traffic, and your preference for "farm to table", 99 cent store, farmer's markets, big chain grocery, fastfood foods,
is what shapes our daily routine.
Purchasing goods online is replacing trips to local stores - for anything you want or need - at a competitive price, delivered to your door.
Lots of choices to make your world turn.

Strains?? The word makes me think of either a disease or the pain I get when I try to hard to do something I'm too old to do.
Does anyone else remember the red or green cellophane wrapped bricks that went for about $60 a pound? Good ol' Mexican grass. And no pesticides back
then. My buddy and I would use his bottom drawer to break them up and then divide them by hand into 16 baggies as equally as two "happy" guys in a
smoke filled room could. We had a particularly stealthy distribution method. We would put them in a brown paper bag and put them on the floor in the
back seat, where no one would ever think to look, and go visit our friends, where we would announce that we had "lids" for sale. $10 bucks an ounce.
Funny thing about them though. The longer you had them the smaller they got. No one wanted to purchase without testing the merchandise. Then came
Viet Nam, and adulthood and Kids and----- Boy---Long time ago. Kinda amazing I made it this long.
And just so this isn't a total hijack -- It looks to me like they are making young mens pants now that have the crotch about where the knees are.
What's up with that????   |

Might be good if online shopping becomes more popular, maybe we
won't need so many Walmarts. If only they could come up with online fast food.
