Despite crazy inflation on everything else, my weed is still surprisingly cheap and affordable
Affording groceries is even harder when you’re already struggling to make ends meet with a dwindling paycheck every two weeks. Our company said they had to do cuts in hours and employment benefits to stay afloat. Perhaps I’m glad that they’re not shutting their doors altogether, but it doesn’t soften the disappointment that I feel thinking that I can’t afford to pay my bills if I stay here. Thankfully I saved a good deal of money when inflation was low and the economy was doing well. This is perhaps the only reason I’m staying afloat with the constant upheaval and financial uncertainty. I can’t complain about the medical marijuana in my state, regardless of the fact that I have to pay $75 every year just to renew the card itself. I’m happy because I was paying $50 in the past for an eighth of an ounce of “good” cannabis flower buds. Nowadays I can get really good products from quality medical cannabis dispensaries for much cheaper when I’m shopping during sales. For instance, I could get an eighth of an ounce of top shelf cannabis for as low as $25 in some cases. This is where I’m saving money despite having to pay the state $75 once a year to renew the medical marijuana card. Even when I factor in my physician fees, I still pay a lot less for weed than I did in the past. Despite crazy inflation on everything else, my weed is still surprisingly cheap and affordable. I just hope that the prices don’t change and start climbing.
