just an idea, or try any male friends anyone knows, in my experience the boys usually have the connections, look for a regular teenager, most of my dealers are teenagers from the high school or something and friends i know who frequently get ounces and sell me a 1/4 or something a week or so. but the boys, younger brothers, skateboarders, people at peace with the world..., pool halls, the likes
I don't think mentioning weed is a good idea in smoke shops. Most smoke shops have very strict guidelines they have to follow and have lots of signs inside saying "Please do not use any terms relating to the usage of marijuana" So even if the store clerk smokes ganja all the time, I wouldn't bring it up unless you really talk to the guy (or girl) and know for sure that it's appropriate and that he/she won't kick you out of the shop. I've seen ppl kicked out of the store for calling a "water pipe" a "bong." So they are strict and they do enforce the rules.

But smoke shops might be good to meet fellow smokers (the customers, not the shop owners/cashiers). But just because they smoke doesn't mean that they'll help you out. It's pretty tough to find good help nowdays.
