I live in the upper midwest and the majority of the weed around here is mexican shwag. The stuff that I get is actually not that bad though. There are usually only about 10-15 seeds in an ounce. By the time it gets up here and has gone through a couple people, it costs $120-$160 an ounce unless you buy it by the pound and can get a better deal. From a dealing perspective, the weed money in my town comes from shwag. The dealers can sell shwag for $25 an eighth and double their money. Unless you drive to a bigger city, you won't be able to get a good price on an ounce or QP of chronic.
