The other day I ordered an eighth online seeing as I live in California and it's legal but illegal in my town, $30 for an eighth plus $23 tax and $12. Site said free delivery's over $60 so I clicked for quarter of weed and wow it was extreamly over priced so I canceled. This is what happens when government is in charge, $65 for an for an eighth.

You're spot on, but geographically, it is getting better. I travel a lot, and Michigan for example is really decently priced, compared to Chicago for example. Vegas has fallen way more inline over the years as well. California though? Good luck.

When I visited California I went to a pot shop I was really excited to try some legal weed till I saw the prices. The tax rate is ridiculous.

And I thought everyone in Cali would be toking, but I smell weed more commonly in Texas.

Still, you have the option of black market bud if you can find it without the risk of dealing with a completely illegal substance.
