buying a grinder in a headshop

[absurdity...]

Ok. So at headshops, you have to be careful about how you talk. I wanna buy a grinder with a kif (keif? you know what i'm talking about) preserver or holder or whatever the hell it's called.
would that be referring to marijuana and therefore bad to ask for? what should i ask for, then?

did that make any sense at all?




yeah, and then tell me what you would call it. a grinder that keeps the kif in a little seperate section.

[Corn.breaD]

Ask for a grinder with a pollinator.

[WEsmokeED]

ask for a grinder with a catch or catcher. they will know what you mean but idk bout saying keif. worse they can do is kick you out

[kikoraa]

theres signs up in all our shops to remind our stoned asses.
Oh and always be high as hell when you buy your pieces if your straight youll never find "the one"

[WeedyBoyWonder]

pff, you don't have to watch what you refer to a grinder as in a headshop. It's a product they sell and it's perfectly legal to do so and ask for one, the same as a bong. They don't use a special code name for it, it's a bong.

If you went up to the counter and demanded Ounces of cannabis, then you may have a problem... untill then, don't worry.

[OLDE ENGLISH '800]

grinder with a pollen catcher

[Nightrafe]

ask for a 4 piece grinder

[ohharrypothead]

I don't know at the places around here (Georgia, US), you have to be careful, they all have signs posted everywhere that if you refer to marijuana, or anything having to do with it, at all, you'll be kicked out. I mean really it doesn't seem like it would be that difficult, except the kief thing, yeah, but in terms of pieces, you shouldn't really need to mention it.

[Metaphor]

ide just ask for a 4 piece grinder

[13 Amp]

yeah all above is good info but if you're still not sure just ask to see their grinders and look through all the different kinds they have and when its all out in front of you, you can just point and say "that one"...nothing to worry about with that method

[WaZ]

"Grinder with a catcher" is probably the safest thing to say.

Some grinders with catchers come in 3-piece, so simply asking for a 4-piece doesn't necessarily expedite your purchase. :)

[Spliff_Man]

couldn't you just say crystal catcher? "crystal" doesn't have an obvious link to cannabis.

[rmrdr716]

im not sure, ive yet to see any tobacco with crystals in it... and if salvia or kratom is legal theres no crystals in that shit either

[ZeldarFromBeldar]

I made the mistake of making the SNL joke, " ... And you can hide yer weeed in there..." got kicked out.

"we don't sell anything that rhymes with soul or song."

[CheeseOnToast]

heres how i ordered my last two grinders:
"can i get a cheap ass blue grinder please"

or ( whilst wankered )

"can i have a grinder?"
"sure, which one?"
"i dont care, *hands over wallet*"

Luckily the next day i noticed i had a blue £5 one that to this day works flawlessly.

buying these things stoned just seems to work out better for me..

[cAnswer]

Just ask for a 4-piece grinder they are wonderful and are exactly what you are looking for.

And about not being able to talk about weed in headshops, that blows, here when i bought a blunt wrap and shit at the local headshop the guy asked me if i knew where he could buy weed. move to minnesota :jointsmile:

Minnesota is very laid back with 'toker talk' at least in my area of southern minnesota. I can go to my local head shop and talk about weed... i recently bought a scale from them and they gave me 2 free blunt wraps and said enjoy!

[BUZz UK]

lol, you can't even talk about weed ina headshop in america? damn your country sucks.

here you can walk in, chat about cannabis and whatever the hell else you like, then walk out and light a spliff...

[BUZz UK]

erm... okaaaaay....

[blueburyboy]

can you talk about sex in a sex shop

[psychocat]

I don't know at the places around here (Georgia, US), you have to be careful, they all have signs posted everywhere that if you refer to marijuana, or anything having to do with it, at all, you'll be kicked out..



Please someone tell me that this is a joke.
I find that so funny , that is friggin hilarious, I now have images of guys trying to buy stuff in a headshop without refering to cannabis at all. :wtf:


And as for America kicking Britains ass (BTW an ass is a donkey) the last time you called us out you needed the Dutch,the French and the Spanish to help you do it. ;) :D :cool:

[swanman8907]

I've been to a couple head shops in Michigan where they have signs telling you not to refer to Marijuana but I've never seen someone actually say anything about bud while I've been in there so I don't know what would happen if you did even though they say that they'll kick you out.

[blueburyboy]

what are the laws on prostitution in michigan

[psychocat]

To be honest I've heard so many stories on here about how strict the US goverment is with anything cannabis related that I am actualy suprised that they even allow headshops to exist.

I know the Labour party in England was talking of a ban, nothing has come of it yet but Britain is getting brainwashed into believing the media hype so who knows what could happen.
There is also a lot of talk of reclassifying cannabis in the UK to class A for green (the same as heroin or coke) and Class B for hash, currently both are Class C .

[donsolo]

Around here they're called Polin Catchers.

I personally use a separate polin catcher though as I can store more.

I got kicked out for calling something a crackpipe though...that was funny. I wasn't thinking.

[Nailhead]

Speaking of grinders, I got a Chromium Crusher 4 piece with a kief catcher, although I don't know if the keif catcher works...hardly anything will drop through...but it's still a cool little gadget.

I just wish there was a secondary grinder to get it a little more fine...or at least something to keep it from getting stuck between the teeth. But complaints aside, I love using this thing, it's way faster than breaking it up by hand, and does a much better job anyway. I would go with the Chromium Crusher, most others are made out of aluminum which is not strong at all.

I got the 2.5" one because I noticed on the larger models they still have the same number of teeth and holes in them...when if they are larger, shouldn't they have more? I'm guessing everything was just made a little larger, so those wouldn't grind down as well as the 2.5 versions. I could be wrong, however.

[Droplet]

If they are displayed in a glass counter then just say "can i get that (insert disign/color) one"
then the chinese lady will say "ok"

[KoreaZ]

hmm the headshops in ny is very laid back...of course im a regular customer and go almost every weekend, but i still sometimes just go in there flying high with 2 of my buddies and just chill in there and talk to the guy about toking...he is the man!

[jimmy8778]

here in md, at the local headshop they have a few hanging signs over the counter that say something along the lines that refering to any illegal substance will get you removed from the store, and ive heard a few stories from friends that say they know of people who have been kicked out, its not permanent, but since they only have one shift a day its all day. But i was there yesterday after me and some friends toked up, and i am always scared that one of my friends is going to say something, because lets be honest, i feel as though im the only one who ever thinks of those things, so i only go in with my smoking friends anymore because they have more mind of it. But i picked up a really nice glass bowl its white with some blue stripes and is amazing, much better than my previous one. But the one guy who always seems to be working there is creepy as hell. But very knowledgable, and never cards so people under 18 go in all the time.

[KoreaZ]

yea my guy never ids me 2. i love people who are chill

[jimmy8778]

im 18, and never went in when i was under 18, but ive been in at times when they have all been working so i rarely get carded anymore. And i have a beard, which means i dont get carded as often as most other people because the beard sort of helps to make me atleast look like im 20 or so, so they don't even bother.

[Nailhead]

I'm sure being a medical marijuana patient doesn't change these places rules of what to call these things, but still, I'm tempted haha :D

[jimmy8778]

that was excellent

[daniels]

just for the record I live in Ohio and you would probably be at least yelled at for mentioning weed in any head shop around here

they have signs that say not too and some places are stricter than others but overall you couldn't mention cannabis

buying wipits is always really sketch when choosing words

however today i went to a cannabis society store, sold a bunch of marijuana related stuff but no pipes at all and the guy was totally cool about talking about weed

hope i could help

[eyesmohk]

They don't use a special code name for it, it's a bong.

"water pipe" :thumbsup:

[Alexico]

when I was at a headshop two weeks ago, a guy walks in and asks shopkeep "Yo, got any weed grinders?" Shopkeep replied "No, but we do have tobbaco grinders." This was in Missouri. They are pretty chill here. But its always funny when minors try and buy something or go in the backrooms, they still wont sell or let them look at some of the stuff. And yet the minors never say they are, always got some lame excuse that makes the whole store laugh.

WRONG



You call a bong a waterpipe at the ones around here, or you're out of the store.



Call the grinder's kief tray a "Pollen Catch"

[jimmy8778]

they now have a great big sign that you see when you first walk in, so as to relieve some pressure im sure they feel from the cops and the such, they have listed out what they carry,"Water-Pipes", "Pipes, Glass and Metal"
that kind of stuff so that people won't refer to them as bowls and bongs so they wont have to kick people out, its crazy, but when youve centered the porn shops, tatoo shops, and the head shops on one block on one side, you know there is going to be some attention from the cops. Especially with a liquor store up the street.
