    What city in mn?[/quote]

    ^this. I'm in an mn burb, and a dime here is 10$ and a dub is 20$. I haven't heard of that referring to a half eighth, eighth. Where in mn do they do that, that's weird to me.

    1 Gram = 1 Gram

    Dime Bag = Whatever your dealer gives you for $10 (YMMV)

    Half Eigth = 1.75 Grams

    Dub = Whatever your dealer gives you for $20 (YMMV)

    2 Grams = 2 Grams

    Eigth = 3.5 Grams

    Quarter = 7 Grams

    Half Ounce = 14 Grams

    etc...

    Personally I would never ask a new dealer for a Dime Bag or a Dub, just cause I would have no clue exactly how much I'm getting. I'd ask "How many Grams would I get for $10/$20". Where I'm at a Dime ranges from half gram to full gram and a Dub from a Gram to 2 Grams.

    I'm in the northern burbs of Minneapolis around Coon Rapids. I've had at least 5 different dealers, and it's the same for all of them.

    It's had me confused since my smoking career began. I'd like to know how the fuck it got started. :confused:

    A dime in the us weighs 2.268g and canada 1.75g but in the UK we don't use that word. I believe canada

    I do, all the time. I don't always have $50 to spend on weed

    A half-eighth lasts me like 4 or 5 days

    Ive never heard anyone ever say half eighth, why not just get 2gs lol

    20 for a gram; 30 for 1.7; or 40 for 2 grams, tell me what you prefer.

    I'd say just because a half-eighth is usually exactly half of $50. If you bought 2 grams it would be somewhere between $30 and $40, its just not conventional

    Can I get half an ounce? Yeahhh its called a half
     
  11. #71 Koeune355, Mar 12, 2012
    I buy half eighths because it's a far better deal than 2 g's. 2g's = 40 and a half eighth = 25 or 30 if i'm buying from someone new. 1.75g's for 25> 2gs for 40

    They can price break the 1/8th and not the half eighth, around here at the few dispensaries I've seen ever do half 1/8ths the 1/8th would be say 50 then the half 1/8th would be like 22$, so you are getting a small discount from going up from a gram if it's an 18$ gram, but a bigger one for the 1/8th. That's why everywhere just does 1/8ths, I don't know why you wouldn't just get the 1/8th for it's price break unless you just couldn't afford that :smoke:

    Here in Minnesota we don't have those fancy dispensaries.


    Prices in my area go like this-
    $20 - 1-1.2 (known as a 20 sack) a lot of guys won't sell these.
    $30 - 1.75 (known as a dime for some reason) 1/2 of an 8th aka a 16th.
    $60 - 3.5 (known as a dub for some reason) an 8th
    $100-$120 - 7 (known as a quarter)
    $190-$220 - 14 (known as a half)
    $360-$400 - 28 (known as an ounce)


    Nobody ever buys two grams, five grams, etc... You either pick from the menu or go fuck yourself. :laughing:

    I'd slap anyone who said "half eigth". It's a 1/16th of an oz.
     
  15. #75 Iluvatar, Mar 12, 2012
    Yeah that seems like something a dispensary would do..That why I prefer certain dealers who would rather just make it quick then make an extra $2 lol
    And yeah, again I only buy half- eighths when I'm low on money, which is often as of late

    No one here will sell less than an 8th.

    None of those, those are horrible prices

    You do realize prices vary drastically across the globe, yes? For all you know those are amazing prices in his or her area. :rolleyes:

    Well not only that, but how can a 1.7 be $30 and 2gs be $40? If your dealer is really charging you $10 for an extra .3, I would find a new one
