Default What are these fractions you people use?

I see you guys using 1/8 and 1/4 and I dont understand. Around here in Miami, we use nickel and dime mostly. A nickel is 5 bucks and enough for a good joint. A dime is 10 bucks and enough for a phat ass blunt. There are also ounces but I have never had enough money for one. The most I have ever bought is a 20 for 15 bucks (i knew the dealer so i got it cheap) and thats twice as much as a dime. How much do you guys mean but 1/4 and 1/8 and have you heard of the terms that I use?

well, the prices are different from place to place

but an 1/8 of schwagg usually runs around 10$ where i live, and a 1/4 of schwag is usually about 20$. 1/2 is about 30, and 1 ounce is about 50 - 60.

but dont take my word for it, miami is not where i live, those stats are just for CO.

The prices around here are around $100 for a half ounce and $200 for an ounce, excellent quality.

Dimes are always $10 though, anyone trying to sell for more while insisting it is because of the quality is just ripping you off.

You'll learn about different sizes when you figure out that you get more weed per dollar when buying in larger quantities.
