depends on how desparate you are. I always have a good inventory cuz I raise my own, but when I didn't have access to it, I left the house and made a goal to not come home without herb. I went to a farmers' market, asked random street musicians whether they knew where I could get some; they were from out of town. So I went to college campus to no avail, then went straight downtown and walked until I found something promising. A street beggar asked me for money so he could go to McD's and I gave him a dollar and asked if he knew where I could get some chronic. He said 'naturally,' and for another 5 bucks he introduced me to a native american lady selling the dankest gram bags I've ever dreamed of. so i bought 4 and went home thinking I could accomplish anything. Anyway, if you go through as much effort, at the very least you'll get a good story out of it. Being sober for a while is very valuable, too.
