i been wondering this for the past few days....ok the majority of you say you smoke dank....and that you get it for, lets just round off to 20 bucks a gram......at that price how can any of you afford to smoke everyday? (which the majority claimed in a past post) ....jesus i'm lucky if i get an oz. a month....now i know the shit yal smoke is strong as all fuck (i've had my share of experiences with the good shit) but still even if it takes you jsuta few hits to get high....that 20 SHOULD be gone within 24 hours....if you are true smokers.....probably much much less....i just don't understand...soemone plz fill me in?

the laws of maths bend around dope, there are too many factors-
-what size you buy, its potency, who you share, how often you toke on a day, if you have work, if someone else shouts a toke, how you smoke it..
this year ive probably spent an average of about 100bucks a week on my skunk, i hardly ever buy tinnies (20/g) though..
typical pipe burning id have about 10 full lungs to be nicely high, but all too often i find myself having just one cone here and there...
I HATE THE LAWS because they result in huge prices.
if pot was legal it would be cheap, simple market economics..
anyway...
the answer to your question-
I Cannot Afford to smoke everyday, but i still do, i just make other sacrifices and yeah.
its the struggle for money to get dope that keeps my life rolling..

buy in bulk its cheaper than buying grams, ex. i can get a 1/2 ounce for $120 from a dealer who sells his grams for like $20, so a 1/2 ounce is like 14 grams, so if you buy them separately it would cost like $280 but if you buy them all at once you save $160 in the long run.

I'll tell you exactly what I tell my folks when they come down on me for spending money on herb (I've long since convinced them I can handle smoking without fucking my life up). I may spend a lot on herb, but I skimp elsewhere. I virtually never buy food, especially overpriced fastfood. I basically only spend money on school, herb, and my car.
Thats fine with me, I can't afford everything ;)

I just pick up by the ounce.. usually lasts me up to a week.. then I gotta buy some more. I don't remember the last time I bought anything smaller than a half ounce.

It's 10 bucks a gram here, 5 bucks for a joint. I can always at least manage to buy a doobie, and I steal money from my parents almost daily. I also have a job, and there's tons of spare change around my house. Between those, I generally have enough to smoke every day.

It's called a job. That place you go to work and make money. :D Or you could sell weed that way your stash is always free. It's even better when you get the weed fronted to you so you don't even spend a dime and you toke free. Friends are good too as long as they're not stingy. But you have to share with them too ofcourse. Also if you buy a quarter you get 7 grams for the price of 5 so on and so forth. Buying in bulk is much cheaper. :D

lol i had one...i still wouldn't have been able to afford it...but i never thought about the dealing thing...like i said i understand now....you sell half or more of what you buy and that pays for the stuff you sell and what you smoke....too bad i'm too much of a pussy to deal lol

Just have your friends fade up on sessions.. if you do it right, you'll at least break even or make some profit.. then do it all over again.

I don't smoke daily. I smoked on the weekends. And I have also been wondering how I am gonna keep it up. My parents are cool about money and stuff so I can have some money to buy sometimes. But I need money. I'm thinking I need a job. That would suck with school though. the kindness of parents is a great thing. weed prices suck. I have sold my soul to the black market!

why would one steal money from their parents,if u cant get the money for it normally (legally) u shouldnt be smoking, u should wait till YOU can afford it. that kind of thing gives us who dont commit a crime (other than posession or smoking it) to get our weed a bad rap, if u steal from anyone to buy ur weed, then ur living proof of the media propaganda, no offense but im just saying thats fucked up

Yeah all you gotta do is buy the cheapest oz of some decent bud, bag up 20 grams to sell and smoke the other 8 to urself. Make enough money to buy another and do the same thing over and over, keeps you in smoke everyday!

I used to buy $80 1/8ths every single week. Or, I'd buy a 1/4 for $150 or somewhere around there, every week. Oftentimes I'd run out before the week is done, so I'd go and buy more in that same week. On average, I'd say I'd spend at least $80 - $200 every single week.
During this time, I had no job and I was just a student. I was lucky, and was given a $1500 allowance each month. This might sound like a lot, but when you're paying $750/month rent plus all of your utilities, food, and most importantly weed, $1500 is like nothing.
There were so many times when I ate frozen vegetables for a whole week, just so I can afford my stash that week. When you're a poor stoner, you quickly become an expert at extreme money saving techniques.

Though I totally agree, we'll always find a way to afford our stash.. I don't really think an allowance of $1500 a month qualifies you as poor. You could always have worked.. I'm a full time university student, paying $690 a month in rent, plus utilities, etc.. and I still spend at least $80 bucks a week on weed. You just learn to pinch here and there; No doritos = an extra $5, and so on...
Peace
