For your medicine? For example, where I live it's....

£10 for 0.7 - 1.0grams
£20 for 1.4 - 1.8grams
£150 for half an ounce(14grams approx)
£250-£350 for 1 ounce(28grams approx)

Can anyone beat these astronomical prices?

Edit - This can be any kind, low/mid/high, it doesn't matter, that's the prices.

Most of us are from the US. Converting is a PIA.......and, what are you asking? If you're getting ripped off, or to buy, cause that ain't gonna fly!

Yeah in the process of doing so myself =] and to answer the other persons question, I'm not looking to buy, I already know the rules. I'm just looking to see if anyone else has to pay the extortionate amount I do down in the South of England. And £1 = $1.6 ;]

I guess squares are people who don't have the flexible income to spend 350 for top grade ounces... And that would probably be the most economically detrimental thing I could possibly do... Simply because the more I have, the more I smoke, which is why I only buy £10s at a time. Also, my tolerance builds up very fast. This is why now that I'm growing, I have to run multiple strains. I've never smoked anything that I'm not "used to" by 3 smoke sessions.

by growing your own and shunning the black market bullshit, you are bettering the world. anyone who has a "weed habit" and buys it by the gram at those prices (especially if they can't afford it) is actively trying to ruin their own finances over something they can quite literally do without. i used to spend over 500 bucks a month on weed. after a certain point you need to decide whether you can afford to be a pothead. if you can't, and still are, you might have a problem.

for me (and probably most of us), buying a gram would be like buying a single square of toilet paper after a week of mexican food. there's just no point, especially knowing that for a few cents more i could get the whole roll, maybe the whole factory. unless you're a weekend smoker with money to burn, buying individual grams is like setting your wallet on fire while getting pretty much nothing in return. if getting high is more important than rectifying that financial situation, i stand by my assertion that there is a problem.

I don't get what you mean? As I said, the more I have the more I smoke, which is why I only buy small amounts at a time(same with tobacco). I could if I wanted to, buy half ounces at £150, but it would be gone with in a few days because I would just continuously smoke it none stop. I don't want to do that and I only want to smoke it in the evening or if I have friends(who also smoke) around. And also my tolerance levels are very quick to adjust so buying half an ounce at a time makes no sense to me, half if not more would be wasted.

Oh and I smoke joints with tobacco which seems to be the norm in every country apart from America. :D

but you are choosing to overpay because it helps you smoke less. i get it and all, i just don't find it to be sound financial advice. you're paying more in the long run to smoke less. it's the principle of the thing. that 5 bucks (pounds?) here and there adds up just as quickly as your herb disappears.

if i were in that situation and my crop was a while from harvest, i'd buy the half oz and sell half of it. you pay less, you smoke less, and you might even get a friend a decent deal on that quarter you sold them, or if they also like to buy grams, you get to pocket even more, while still getting them a better deal. everyone wins.

I get it now, I guess in the long run you are right, but like drink, the word "moderation" seems to go out the window with the more I have haha. I do sometimes buy larger amounts, but only when I'm catering for others too.
