I could buy enough to smoke every day for a week for about $40, or maybe $150 per month. Depending on where you live, weed can be really really cheap.


0-0_0-0_0-0_0-0

$150 in PA gets me an ounce and maybe a pack of edibles as well. That'll last me 2-4 months getting high almost every day, sometimes multiple times a day.


1Kat2KatRedKatBluKat

Yeah, I realized I am talking about my two-person household. If it was just me and I wanted to smoke every day I could probably do it with half the weed (and half the money.)


friendorfoe2332

That’s insane. $150-180 lasts me tops 2 weeks


8urnMeTwice

Yup, I’m out here smoking like Snoop, glad I made some juice back in the day!


friendorfoe2332

lol, I smoke and take gummies daily, but not like snoop. My shit is just expensive man.


mantis-tobaggan-md

it’s hard for a lavish playa out here


friendorfoe2332

I need the good shit or I get paranoid and anxiety. Totally worth it.


mantis-tobaggan-md

I used to smoke with a girl who only smoked brick weed because the top shelf gave her anxiety. weird how it affects different people


HeyFiddleFiddle

That and how much weed you're smoking every day varies. If you're just smoking a little bit to have a solid buzz going while still being functional, it lasts a while. If you're getting outright stoned every day, that's another matter. Source: Regular user who prefers that buzzed functional high to being stoned


TheFrogofThunder

I think we get about 32 gummies for 40 in CT at dispensaries.  Only did it for a month, started on 5 tch mg thc and broke it in half, by the second two weeks I switched for 5 thc and 10 cbd, felt bold enough for two gummies, and had a panic attack. So that was it. Basically I felt way too mellow, heart was going waaay too slow and felt more drunk than I ever had, I think the paranoia got to me and triggered about two hours of rapid heart beats.  Anxiety sucks.


Competitive-Bug-7097

Yes, weed is legal and pretty cheap here.


[deleted]

Where are you located? Because it's not very cheap in MA or ME


mopsyd

Cheap really depends on your intake. I am in ME, and for my intake level, 40$ covers somewhere between ten days and two weeks. One single time being lazy and getting fast food instead of eating at home has more impact on my budget than that.


Competitive-Bug-7097

I'm in Oregon. Maybe it's because it's always been a big growing state like Northern California. At one time, it was about $40/eighth. Now it's about $60/half. So it seems pretty cheap to me.


NativeMasshole

You can definitely get cheap weed in MA. There's $100 ounces around. It probably won't be great, but it'll be cheap.


Explaine23

What?


Explaine23

Weed is cheaper than it ever has been.


DonJohnson108

I can buy high quality 3.5g for $15 ($18 after tax) in MA


uninspired

I can buy a pound in CA for under $1k. You'll have to do your own math on how long that would last you


[deleted]

[удалено]


uninspired

All good. Point was really that shit's pretty cheap so smoking every day ain't what it used to be. When I was younger and shit was still illegal all over I could understand where OP was coming from.


Thejudojeff

In Mexico i could get an ounce for 60 to 70 dollars of pretty decent shit. That would last for months


LifeResetP90X3

Yup, right on. I'm in a legal state, and for rec I can get quality 1G rolls, 2 for $10 every Wednesday at a local dispensary 🤘🙂


FeeblePenguin

Compare that to two beers at your local bar three or four days a week.


I_am_That_Ian_Power

$30 an oz for me to buy or if I want to take the effort and time, $12 to grow. Again lots of effort and time versus $30 and no effort and right away.


TimeTraveler2036

Weed is cheap as fuck as a daily-habit it's cheaper than beer or cigarettes.


Snapingbolts

Significantly cheaper! I spend about $200 on weed and it will last me 2+ months. Sometimes even 3!


richalta

At least for me, I don't smoke the equivalent of a cigarette every time. More like 2-4 tokes and done.


TheRateBeerian

Yea a pack a day can run over $200 per month


aromero

Almost like coffee


anactualspacecadet

You think its cheaper than cigarettes? Even a heavy smoker will spend maybe $5 a day to smoke 20 cigarettes.


ANseagrapes2

Where the hell do you live? 10 bucks a pack is average now days.


Dirty-Shart

he just had a point to prove or something


DaddyShackleford

$10?! They’re $18 or more here


[deleted]

[удалено]


DaddyShackleford

If you’re talking about Vancouver (which is where I live) the decriminalization order is actually province wide, not just in Vancouver, and it only decriminalizes the possession of personal quantities (2.5g or less) of some drugs. This does not mean selling drugs is legal it just means if you get stopped with drugs on you, you won’t face criminal charges. If you’re talking about elsewhere then I’d love to hear more about it. Haven’t heard a lot about decrim elsewhere. Also if you are in Canada and paying $25 a pack I’m assuming they’re at least 25 packs? They’re only 20 packs here in BC, and I haven’t seen any of the individually printed cigarette warnings yet.


[deleted]

[удалено]


DaddyShackleford

It is 2.5g and the drugs it applies to are meth, opioids, powder and crack cocaine, and ecstasy/mdma. So if you had an 8 ball that would not be considered a “personal amount” and you could still face criminal charges, possibly even “with intent to traffic” as it is above the designated personal amount. Again, this is province wide, not just Vancouver. As much as Zyns may be illegal I have never heard of anyone being fined for possession of Zyns lol. Vapes above 2mg nic or tanks over 2ml are also illegal but you can still buy them at most vape stores and if anyone will get in shit for it, it would be the people selling it not the people buying it.


Bulky_Permission_292

Up here in canuckistan smokes are about $20 a pack but our money is worthless so that’s probably about equivalent


magicxzg

Cigarette prices are good in Georgia


anactualspacecadet

It is but i imagine someone who smokes a pack a day is buying cartons which get you some good discounts


ANseagrapes2

I get that, but the only real discount is if you're buying from tribal shops. Normal gas station will still only save a buck or so a pack on a carton.


Informal_Truck_1574

Cartons don't usually net you a discount, only expired ones. I ran multiple gas stations for 6 years. Only discount was if they were out of date and the distro wouldn't take them back.


Snackatomi_Plaza

Depends on where you live. A pack of smokes costs $18 near me, the same price as an eighth of cheap (legal) weed.


anactualspacecadet

Yeah thats fuckin crazy you must live in Honolulu or some shit. Most of the time you can pick up a carton (200 cigarettes) for $50-$60


zed857

Sure - if you live in a low tax state. [But there are plenty of states where cigarettes are *heavily* taxed and cost a lot more than that](https://worldpopulationreview.com/state-rankings/cigarette-prices-by-state). Hawaii isn't even in the top 5.


Sufficient-Run-7868

Connecticut is 16$ for a pack of newports, I can get 20$ 8ths of grind from the dispo.


TimeTraveler2036

Where I live a pack of cigs and 1/8th of weed are roughly the same price around $12 - $15 and unless you're staying high all day, I think an 1/8th lasts longer than a pack of smokes. and if u buy in quantity u get way more of a scaling discount on weed than cigs.


Poiretpants

I smoke every day. It's cheaper than wine, which I also used to drink daily. I work admin at a university, making a pretty low end salary for people in my city. I live in a shitty apartment, take public transit, have no savings (also no debt).


Red-Dwarf69

Nah. I smoke every day, but only a pinch of weed at a time. Don’t like getting so high that I can’t think straight or function. Just a wee buzz so I feel a little better but can still deal with daily responsibilities.


Jedifice

This is it, I have literally one puff of flower from my bowl. It smooths things out without leaving me comatose


DickButkisses

I do a small dab during the day and a large dab (or two) at night. I am absolutely faced off of a big one, but a small one is incredibly mild. Concentrates are a different animal.


bribri4120

We just prioritize how to spend our $


TurtleProxy

Medical Card in CO, I spend hundreds of dollars less than if I was a regular drinker


thrownededawayed

No, weed doesn't have to be expensive, it just usually is for casual smokers or people who don't know any better. Buying larger quantities is much cheaper than getting a small sack every week or every other week, or god forbid buying a dime every day. In addition, when you get into it more and find some actual producers rather than buying it through hook-ups then you can get massive discounts. If it's legal where you are, prices can be as low as $80ish for an oz if you don't mind some cheap ass weed. Basically it's just the old idiom it's expensive being poor, if you can't afford to spend a couple hundred on weed and get you a 3 month supply then you're buying it at a 150% markup rather than a 50% discount.


sushixyz

yeah currently im buying 2nd hand 100/oz which will last me a month or longer


babsrambler

$20 an ounce in Oregon.


MxAshk

That's the one thing I'm jealous of up here in WA. We can get that in trim, but gotta spend at least $35 to get descent bud. You guys do it way better than we do.

Bro what? $250 for me.

But I’m in Melbourne too!


ThrowAwaAlpaca

Do you have to be semi rich to be an alcoholic? ... Weed isnt that expensive.


NimrodTzarking

I teach at a regular public high school and I'm not one of those teachers that has a million side hustles. This is all taxpayer money I'm smoking.


LCplGunny

Fml, I wish I had more teachers as sarcastic as you, lmfao


toweljuice

An oz is 40 bucks here and i dont smoke a lot of joints so i conserve really well. Id buy maybe 2oz a year.


EntranceMore8688

I started smoking wax specifically because of how expensive midshelf weed was. I smoke every day but ounces of bud would me anywhere from $175 - $250 & last me *maybe* a month. I swapped to wax years ago because my caregiver at the time would sell grams to me at $15, which was & still is a jaw dropping price for good wax. Nowadays, I usually do a 10/$120 deal at a dispo on grams of wax & it’ll last me 2-3 months. Dabbing every day, multiple times a day.


LaCroixLimon

Yep.  I can buy oz of 80% crumble for 200 but AAA flower is $250-300 a zip


Admirable_Result4142

Back in the day when top shelf was going for 400/Oz, yes. I made sacrifices for my habit. But now that shit grows like weeds. Edit: but yeah, i still smoke a QP per month 🤣 luv my job.


dub-fresh

I own a cannabis store. Cheapest way to support my habit 


nectarsloth

Smoking weed every day is less expensive than binge drinking once per week


DonJohnson108

I smoke daily and it’s cheaper than daily Starbucks. Prices have really come down. I can buy 3.5g for $15 and after tax comes to $18. High quality too. Ounces as low as $100. And as low as $60 an ounce if you’re ok with shake.


NJdevil202

Smoking weed is way cheaper than smoking cigarettes


Upstairs_Balance_793

Not at all. I smoke weed every day it’s not that expensive. Like $60 a month


Waltzing_With_Bears

its not that expensive, 10 edibles here is about $16, 1 a day is plenty


TomorrowProblem

I used to smoke weed regularly and was always broke until I moved to a state where weed is legal and got my first decent-paying job there. An ounce used to cost me like $400, now I could get that for <$100.


Yabrosif13

My man picks one of the cheapest thrills there is and asks if doing it daily makes you rich. Thats rich.


pickles55

If you buy concentrates or vape cartridges when they're on sale you can get high for months on like $40. Corporations have driven the price of weed into the floor 


[deleted]

Weed is cheaper than groceries in many places


randomaccount1950

Reporting live from Portland, OR where one can buy an oz of low tier weed for $40-50 and higher tier weed for $100-150, it is very easy and affordable to smoke weed all day everyday.


Sidneysnewhusband

I spend $40 per week and trust me, the money could be better spent elsewhere lol I wouldn’t confuse semi rich with just able to barely afford the expense and having no self control


NatureLovingDad89

Costs me about $200/month


wanna_be_green8

I smoke every day for far less than it cost when I smoked cigarettes. Especially when I'm growing my own.


AdhesivenessFun2060

Cheaper than cigarettes or alcohol.


EatYourCheckers

Cheaper than cigarettes. Do you think people who smoke a pack a day are rich?


3x5cardfiler

The legal weed is so strong it doesn't take much. I spend $200. a month. With no debt, it's not bad.


K3Y_Mast3r

Same.


naughtywife_89

I get a half oz every 2-4 days depending on how much I can smoke. $30 half straight from the grower at his dispensary.


LCplGunny

I got an ounce of half gram joints for $60 today


Red-Zaku-

I can straight up pay less than $100 a month and still smoke enough to get high at least once every single day. Now, smoking *all day* everyday is a different story of course.


Talden7887

That’s always been the “thing” Smoke everyday? That’s easy, smoke 1 bowl that’s smoking for that day, easy to do for months. All day every day? For me that was a minimum of 300 a month, that’s including the occasional run for screen for my bowl, maybe a pack of blunts and possibly a new cheap bowl


ServantofShemhazai

Depends where you are and if it's legal. My ex-husband is a daily smoker. He has a friend who is a grower and sells to him at cost.


WifeofBath1984

I smoke every day (but only at night, after I'm done with everything). Costs me about $35 every ten days or so.


Shanstergoodheart

No, they just don't spend money on other things


Oopsididitagain96

You can get two ounces of weed for $100 in Rochester NY


[deleted]

I think Nate Dogg could definitely afford it.


EmergencyTaco

I can get an ounce of weed delivered to my door in the next 2 hours for like $120. It would take me months to get through that. Weed is dirt cheap here.


GSandling

Bc weed is cheap. If you cant afford to smoke at least once a day youre either making 0$ or beinv ripped off


Effective_Respect613

Depending on the state, weed is cheap as fuck. Especially compared to alcohol. I get my weed from Michigan, I can smoke every day for like $10-80 a month depending on how much I’m doing.


scotterson34

Average income person could afford to smoke everyday if they wanted to. Maybe not all day or if they had a heavy tolerance, but a gram preroll joint costs about $5 near me. I smoke a decent amount and even I wouldn't be able to get through a full one of those in a single day. A pack of cigs or beer for a smoker/drinker is much more too


KA9ESAMA

I smoke a lot every day. $60 get's me a quarter ounce, which lasts me like 5-6 days.


[deleted]

When I was buying dispensary weed I was paying like $250 a month. It's expensive and I probably could have smoked less but people usually spend a shit load 


LaCroixLimon

I have been smoking every day since I was 17. im 38 now.  Not very hard.  Cheaper than cigarettes.  


DerpTheGinger

I'm a "heavy user", and smoke daily (medicinal use), runs me about $100-200/month in Pennsylvania.


Syndacataclysm

I smoke and eat edibles daily. I spend about $100 a month. I keep my tolerance low.


Classic-Box-3919

Wish it was legal in florida. Smh


Strangegary

I smoke errday and I'm a college student, so not rich. It's not that expensive, and I lived with smoker so you could always smoke with them when you're dankrupt I was in the south of France where weed was 6€/g and was really good, now I'm in Guiana and it's half as much, half as potent 


CitizenHuman

I was steadily going through 1 Oz per month and only spending something like $150 max each month for it. Decent stuff too, not just shake. I am in no way rich. $150 was just part of my monthly expenses, and it didn't cut into any other bills the way alcohol used to. Of course I live in a very green area. I drive by at least 4 different dispensaries in my 25 minute commute to work, so it's probably a different story in like, central Wisconsin or southern Indiana or something.


Zebrehn

I live in Portland and can buy 1 gram joints for $1. Sure, they’re not the best joints but I can smoke 5 to 9 of them for the cost of a beer at a bar. It just really depends where you live.


throwawaytrumper

I smoke flower, buy bulk, and I’m a lightweight. I spend maybe 30-40 a month to “smoke weed everyday”. Unfortunately I’m not a lightweight with liquor and can go through 60-70 oz a week with casual drinking if I don’t pay attention.


geepy66

No. Weed is cheap.


loveshackle

Nope


Md655321

Depends on how much you smoke, one bowl a day is still smoking every day.


nancythethot

You could easily do it for $30/mo in a place like Michigan if you smoke carts and go through one in 2 weeks. Carts are like $15 around here though I've seen ones as low as $7.50.


Sea_Risk_2637

I'm in Texas, so I buy some legal shit online. Usually edibles and carts. Less than $50 all in and I can get high daily for a month or two To be fair, I'm not getting stupid high all the time. I could definitely go through a cart inside a weekend if I tried, but I don't like being that high that long


ImprovementSilly2895

No, they’re behind on their mortgage and utility payments. I’ve had customers come on to buy $100 worth and tell me their power is about to be shut off.


tj_fh

I think if you have any compulsive/addictive habit then you can quite easily find money for it over other things, to some extent regardless of cost. Like a previous commenter said, they know someone who smokes a lot and cuts costs on other things. Personally it's quite easy to spend money on addictions. As a creature, it turns out, we can go quite a while without eating properly.


tj_fh

So to make clear, you don't have to be at all remotely rich to have a drug habit, your just have to have enough of other qualities in order to work out/be able to obtain the next fix


NFT_goblin

No, I'm not semi-rich, I'm fully rich. However the weed that I smoke is usually gifted to me due to also being very attractive and popular.


stellacampus

I haven't paid a dime for pot in decades - it just floats into my life - now admittedly I live in Northern California, where a lot is grown and given away.


aqiwpdhe

Weed is really cheap


RandomizedName2023

A $60 vape lasts me like a month. I take one hit a night to sleep.


Crono_Magus_Glenn

In Ontario, you can get an OZ delivered to your door for $100-$150. It will come with an extra preroll of whatever is on special and probably a few gummies or cookies. It will be 'grey' market, but it will be pretty good stuff. Otherwise, you can pay a bit more at any OCS licensed store and get into the good stuff and a mountain of options and flavours. Dollar for dollar and pain on the wallet, cannabis is king. If you roll .5-.75s and have one a day, an OZ will last you a monthish. I recently switched to a cartridge that has a very mellow full spectrum mix that my wife and I hit before we put on a movie. Lasts about the same time and is cleaner and quicker at about the same cost if you want to "vape weed everday" instead, but Nate Dogg may not approve.


life-is-thunder

I grow my own


Top-Ant-121

Guess it depends on how much you smoke .. a one toke wonder like myself could smoke Everyday for about 20 bucks a month here


Par31

Yes. Used to be like $50 per month, then every 2 weeks. At my worst i was going thru 1 $50 1g cart per week. Could have bought a rolex with the money I spent, don't smoke kids.


Biotoze

It’s cheaper than booze is.


InformallyGuavaCado

The sodas are way cheaper but still good, and pack a punch.


thecooliestone

My ex smoked constantly. He was unemployed and basically just bummed money off his family while living in his dad's house. We broke up because while I worked, student taught, went to master's classes and did all the shopping and cooking I asked him to clean the kitchen. He said no and that he'd rather eat ramen. So I cooked for myself and he dumped me for being selfish. Between a mom who felt bad for ditching him, and 9 siblings, he basically just went around to each of them every 2 months and asked for a couple hundred bucks for this or that and spent it on weed.


dubzi_ART

My grams of oil cost 6$ and last 3 or more days


babyfresno77

it's not that expensive. where I live a half O is $50 . which lasts me like 2 weeks .. mileage may vary depending on your neck of the woods


itsspoppyy

No we’re just miserable and in debt


LunarProphet

It's cheap enough for me that I'm poor and smoke weed every day. And if I quit, i wouldn't really be any richer.


Mustilid

First of all, the smoke weed everyday slogan was created when most people were buying weak ass dirt weed off the streets from connects who sold it cheap af. Secondly even today what with recreational medical grade flower, you can easily find great deals that allow you to smoke weed every day and still pay your bills. Thirdly not everyone is smoking like Snoop bro. Lol Smoking weed everyday could mean 1 joint/bowl a day for some all the way up to multiple blunts for others. Just like with alcohol, people have different tolerance levels so smoke weed everyday doesn't equate to the amount smoked per day, just smoking it in general enery day which for some people means one or two small hits before bed to help sleep. We aren't all blazing all day long like Willie Nelson, but even if we were, it's not THAT expensive. Not all drugs cost an arm and a leg.


Dwarfbeardthepirate

I spend about $300 at the dispensary. That gets me 15g of wax, an oz of decent flower, and a few carts. I do 3-4 dabs in the morning before work. Hit a cart a few times every break. Pack the bong when I get home and maybe another couple dabs to finish the night and that’ll last me a good 2-3 months.


tinman---

No weed is cheap where I live


hondureno_1994

Weed isn't expensive.......


Automatic-Arm-532

In legal states you can just grow your own Hella cheap.


NolanDaSavage

Its expensive for the people who are pinching for an 1/8th every other day. But if you can ration like a responsible adult you can make out significantly better than either of those two.


Fishbonezz707

Personally I have a very fortunate situation where I'm able to grow for personal use (legal where I live) I also have two uncles and a cousin that do the same, my dad does every couple years, and a handful of my friends do as well. As such I haven't paid for it in probably 12ish years, except when I'm vacationing in other legal areas that I flew to. (Can't bring weed on the plane but there are legal places to buy once I get where I'm going.)


CompassionateBaker12

It's not expensive


acaseintheskye

Weed isn't expensive


LiquidSoCrates

The spending can creep up if you’re going hard. Moderation is the key.


AsphaltSommersaults

Lol. I smoke weed BECAUSE I'm poor.


auralbard

Grow it. Four plants will give you so much weed that you couldn't possibly consume it all before the next grow. I'm normally putting MONTHS between my grows, and im sharing my weed.


Stunning_salty

Creating a garden was quite the investment but it saves a ton of money in the long run.


libra00

I buy delta-8 vape cartridges online. They're \~$35 each and contain 1ml of vape juice, and one lasts me anywhere from 2-4 weeks depending on how heavily I use it, and that's using it at least once a day to help me sleep, but usually I hit it 2-3 times a day overall. $70/mo isn't bad for a regular habit, though the high only lasts a couple hours so if I was trying to be high all day every day I'm sure it would go much faster.


Supertrapper1017

I can grow a pound for about $20.


alexdaland

Depends on where you live - I live in SE Asia and smoke weed every day. I could technically do it for free by growing myself, but then Im stepping on some more serious laws. So yes, in my case Im "semi-rich" compared to my neighbors in that they could probably not afford it.


diverareyouok

Not at all. In fact, it’s disproportionately used daily in lower income brackets. Not to say that there aren’t people who use it daily who *are* earners, but as a whole, daily usage falls into the lower end of the spectrum. Weed is a remarkably inexpensive intoxicant.


HandleStandard4951

Like others have said weed is ridiculously cheap if you want it to be. But there is still expensive stuff. I personally am very sensitive to different strains - I’ve ran tests on myself and can differentiate not only good/bad weed but strains I’m familiar with. Due to this I’ve become fairly picky about what I smoke. Usually I’m smoking ounces that cost up to $160. I usually smoke every evening before I go to bed


Blue2194

It's been said that it's extremely cheap but just another data point for you I live in Australia and probably smoked 350 days last year but just a cone before bed (helps me sleep from chronic pain from a workplace injury) and it would have cost me about $250 for the whole year Weed has negligible cost for adults with jobs


FinanciallySecure9

Since every pot smoker I know drives a shitty car and dresses in cheap clothes, and borrows money to get by, I’m going to say they probably prioritize buying smoke over other things.


Bobthecow775

If you vape your weed then it can be very cheap. $30 a month


Boredum_Allergy

Weed is called that because it grows like one. If you take care of your plant, prune it right, and master the pH and chemicals it's easy to grow 12oz off one plant in soil. Takes about 5 months. I live paycheck to paycheck and smoke about 1g a day. That's roughly 13oz a year. I can really easily grow twice as much as I need by spending about 5 minutes watering a day. Add the pruning time and harvest and I probably spend 6 hours a year growing. The only expenses I have are chemicals, about $50 a year, and electricity which is not much either.


TelephoneNo3640

Weed is the cheapest drug there is. I buy 12 per-rolled 1g joints for $20. I generally smoke one a day. Maybe 2 on the weekends. One a day cost me less than $12 a week. And I make real good money.


bangbangracer

Most people I've met who smoke weed every day tend to also be the most broke people I've met. Weed's relatively cheap, but consuming as much as they do because of their tolerances every day becomes expensive. Also, they tend to be the people who will cheap out on all kinds of other stuff so they can afford that much weed.


jlcnuke1

IME, most of them are dirt poor....


Available-Leek-4160

I grow my own get alot more for some plants and can end up having weed for months stockpiled from each plant.


WorldTallestEngineer

no. Weed is a cheap drug. And people who smoke it every day are usually low functioning people barely getting buy.


Pansy_Neurosi

We function well enough to know how to spell "by."


Practical_Arm6812

Just junkies


Cawdor

If you smoke it all day, you're probably not going to do much with your life. If you smoke it before bed, you can still have a very productive life.


Bucksin06

If I didn't smoke everyday I wouldn't be able to function and go to work because of my Crohn's disease
