They are getting you with that tax though forreal. 40/8th then a 20-25 percent markup on top of that. i would just cop a ounce and try to get that discount. At least you don't have to worry about Law enforcement anymore and you get some varied selection, edible and what not.
Yeah that tax is kind of
But still, in a way it'd be worth the convenience since
1. Don't have to worry about cops
2. Don't have to worry about finding a connect, your connect being out of town, etc.
3. Don't have to worry about it being laced or shytty (or, at least, if it is you can try to get a refund)
Hopefully I live long enough to see it legal in general (not just decriminalized) in the US.
