I consider myself to be one hell of a pothead. Shoot, I don\u2019t mean to toot my own horn, but I<\/p>\n
just might be the greatest pothead in the world. When you get to be the caliber of pothead that I am,<\/p>\n
you learn a few \u201ctricks of the trade\u201d! I wanna share with you a few \u201ctricks\u201d that I picked up along the<\/p>\n
way.<\/p>\n
Truth is marijuana use can be expensive. Don\u2019t get me wrong marijuana is pretty cheap and you are<\/p>\n
in no way of being in danger of selling all your personal possessions in order to afford your next joint.<\/p>\n
But it can still hurt the wallet. Let me give you some advice on how to keep some cash in your pocket<\/p>\n
and still be able to enjoy in the herb!<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
1. Buy in Bulk<\/strong> (legally because\u00a0we wouldn’t\u00a0want you to do anything illegal)<\/p>\n Marijuana kinda works like Costco. If you buy in bulk it ends up being cheaper in the end. The<\/p>\n dealer or dispensary would rather give you a bit of a price cut for getting rid of more of their product.<\/p>\n It\u2019s much easier to give a small price cut to get rid of an once rather than getting rid of 28 grams.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 2. Generation Blunts or Joints<\/strong><\/p>\n Hey! When you get down to the roach of that joint don\u2019t just throw it away. I mean are you just<\/p>\n going to throw away weed like that? Save them! Wait till you have about 12 of them, break them up,<\/p>\n and you basically have a whole new free joint.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 3. Put the Joint Out<\/strong><\/p>\n I can appreciate the mentality of the smoker who wants to smoke till it\u2019s all gone! Why not?! It\u2019s<\/p>\n always a good time, but it can certainly hurt the pocket! Putting out the joint as soon as you start to feel<\/p>\n the effects can hold you over till you have enough money to smoke a full joint!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 4. Roll Skinnier Joints<\/strong><\/p>\n Marijuana users love to roll fatties! Just like smoking till the end of the joint, a fatty can be a lot<\/p>\n of fun! But to be honest it\u2019s unnecessary. Roll skinnier joints and your pockets will get fatter.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n 5. Use a One Hitter<\/strong><\/p>\n One hitters are great for conserving marijuana. The great thing about them is you pack just<\/p>\n what you need to hold you over. Notice how all these hints are ways to get you to smoke less. A one<\/p>\n hitter will ensure that you pack just what you need. Just don\u2019t go overboard.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n <\/p>\n By:<\/p>\n Carlos Jose Angel Hermida, M.B.A.<\/p>\n Deputy Director, Central Florida NORML<\/p>\n
