the ONE headshop we have here is pretty cool I guess.. the bongs and pipes, papers, cleaners, etc. all the smoking stuff is in a back room that you have to get the guy to take you back there.. its run husband and wife, the wife is kind of a ***** but the dude is cool as hell, stoned 100% of the time.. its funny as hell because I'm in there like once a week, always in there and every single time I go to the bong room with the dude, he always first thing reaches up to a vaporizer on a shelf and turns it on, so you can hear the motor thingie running, and every time he says "bet that'll wake you up".. he's too stoned to realize he says that to every single customer every single time..

there are notes on the walls in there how you can't say the words "pot, weed, bong" etc. or you will get kicked out, but I've talked with the dude before about "Bongs', etc and he didn't care. as long as he knows you and theres no one else around.

I like when I go to this one head shop near my apartment, and the guy has the store locked with a sign on the door that says "Back in 5 minutes," and his car is still parked out front. Hmm.... wonder what he could be doing....

the shop i frequent was fairly strict, for their own good, and their customers well being.
If you say Bong...they ask you to bounce.
its ok in this one place to say Bowl, yet in the other, you have to say Tray to avoid being *****ed at.
Mostly, dont say anything, just grunt and point if you have a question.....i.e. "unnnggghhh me want that, how much for that? uhhhggghhh"
if you walk in, and you start to look at water-pipes, and you are not 18, *boop* see ya.

Well the local headshop i goto is pretty flexible. It mainly depends on who's working there though. Most of the people are cool though. Occasionally ill be in there and i will be in the back section looking at pipes and bongs and if someone over 30 walks in theyll tell me to wander up front because it looks bad. However me and my friends went there and there were handing us pipes, bongs anything we wanted. Even recommending which one smokes the best. When we got to the counter i asked the person if they wanted my friend's id and they said "we dont give a f*ck".

When I finally found a headshop (read another post somewhere on the boards) in my area I went with a friend of a friend who was 18. The clerk allowed me in but I was not allowed to buy anything (of course) but my friend of a friend bought me a sweet pipe and if the picture wasn't to big I would post it up here.

I find gas station clerks are much more annoying, they ID my 17 year old friend when he was buying zig zags, boy was he mad .

Ahh head shops, or as they're known round here, tobacconists, or just plain bacconist.

Well we got one in the local dodgy mall, not the huge superplex centre but the sh*tty old mall. Anywho, this guy is the sketchiest looking guy you'll ever see, he's this little arab guy who for some reason seems like his eyes are always following you.

His array of pipes and bongs is, well, shyt. We only buy cone pieces and jet lighters from there. We've been refused cone pieces sometimes cos we in skool uniform, but other times in skool uniform he sold it to us.
Haha, but when i bought one i was informed by him,
"You didn't get this here, if anyone asks, you found it on the ground"

I just laughed. Heh.

However, theres this head shop in these markets around us thats only open on weekends, and boy is it comprehensive. They have looooooooaddss of bongs and pipes and everything, lots of different coneys lighters etc. And the guy is so helpful, he's like pushy and stuff though, yet funny.
"You want a bong?"
"Yeah, i'm just lookin"
"We have all different colours, these ones, they're plastic, don't break. They're 25, for you, i give it to you for 15. You have a girlfriend? You buy her the purple bong, buy the purple bong for your lady friend"

I kid you not, he was sayin this shyt. Funny.
And one bong had a little handwritten cardboard sign on it saying,
"Don't steal me bastards!"

I have to add to Adikkals post.

He spells it 'basterds' by the way.

He used to be careful who he sold stuff to, like I mean, he didn't sell to under 18s. He'd tell ya he can't sell them and just call us good boys. But then he gave in, and he said to one of my friends 'Ok, which one you want?' he packed up my friends choice quickly and said 'Don't tell anyone you got it from me, or I kill you.'

He holds up two bongs exactly the same, cept one's black and one's white and yells out 'No prejudice!'

Hah, he's funny.
