Considering 1/8 was like 50 bucks 20 years ago and god knows what was in it only 60 bucks for good regulated shit in 2023 sounds like a steal

Oh yeah, I'd rather just deal with the expensive pricing to know exactly what I'm getting too.

It will go down in time. I have family in MA and so frequent dispensaries there too, and when they first opened the pricing was similar to what NJ is now, but over a few years the prices dropped dramatically and you can now grab 1/2 (4 1/8s) for 60-80 bucks

Yeah, man. I am a stereotype and usually drink local craft IPAs usually at 7% or higher. But like, to get buzzed on that at home costs more than twice as much as a gummy from Rise.

Yeah it def gets pricey. I tend to be 90% IPAs, 10% stouts & sours.

I want to set up a bottle/can share/trade amongst the local beer drinking community. Spoke to Steve @ Newark Local a while ago about it, and he seemed interested in being the meeting place for it.

Just can't be arsed to manage all the logistics lol
