Prices have inflated so much over the past 10 years that a $20 bill buys as much as $5 did back then.
minus-squareburrito@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up7·17 hours agoDepends on where you live. I can get an ounce of weed, 28g for you people with better measurement systems, for $22-50 and I have a large variety of strains to choose from.
minus-squarewonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·6 hours agoIf your ounce weighs 28g, you got shorted 2g… I guess for that price it doesn’t really matter, but it’s about the principle!
minus-squarebooly@sh.itjust.workslinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 hours ago1 oz = 28.35 g Maybe that 1/3 of a gram is shorting someone, but a single ounce is closer to 28g than to 30g.
minus-squarewonderingwanderer@sopuli.xyzlinkfedilinkarrow-up1·3 hours agoOh shit, you’re right. My weed-addled brain got “1/8th = 3.5g” mixed up with “1/4 = 7g” and came up with “7.5×4=30” These things do happen…
