Don't know about drugs, but if you need a catalytic converter I might know a guy.

Why go black market when you can drive over to CO for the weekend and fill up for the year?

Medical card

I can order it online and they deliver.

Gummies, chocolate, and the bud have increased though.

About 15%

Why am I surprised at this post from this poster? I shouldn't be.

Folks that dabble with illegal substances, have you noticed the cost of say.. a gram of bud increasing?
hah for a second when I read the thread title I thought you meant like flat brimmed baseball caps and fried chicken.

Weed went waaaay up when it became legal in CO.. 10 years ago.

Why would drugs cost more when they got legal?

There's a 1oz daily purchase limit.

So yeh if 2oz is enough for your year your statement is true.

uhh.. taxes and regulation, along with quality. You ever pay 25% sales tax to a dealer on the street?

An ounce of quality flower is upwards $400 these days at a shop.

That's per transaction. You can hit up multiple stores/day. Not like they blue your thumb to show you've procured your stash for the day.

Trust me...

There is no state tracking system - you can buy 1oz from every store you find, every day you are there, per person (or 8g of concentrate, or 800mg of consumables).

Not that I would know anything about that or anything...

I'm a resident.. and yes I too know how it works from first hand experience. It's def. not per transaction, it's per day. You can't buy, go outside and come back in same place... outside of maybe them not recognizing you.

Some places track a DL.

State law also has a possession limit, so even if you do successfully peruse around town loading up, if you get pulled over, get ready to bend over.

Read again. Multiple stores/day. There every other month and do it all the time

read again - possession limit.

Why risk getting caught out of state over limit, when you can just buy from dealer near your home and likely be left alone? I know people in TX that do this.

And it was suggested to buy a year's supply, not a 2 month supply.

We're literally talking about risking it. It's the premise of the thread. Cops in Denver aren't nailing pot tourists for buying over their daily limits. Never had a problem anywhere in CO including the airport. They don't care.

There is no mechanism in place to stop people from buying more than the limit in CO. Period. You can hit up multiple stores/day

i'm just saying you're doubling your risk because not only are you over the state limit of possession you are also transporting across state lines which is federal.

But there is no mechanism to prevent it…is there?

It's rather simple. CO has a 'law' that isn't enforced with a mechanism to prevent people from buying more than their daily allotment. They're not charging pot tourists federally. TSA has been instructed not to worry about weed anymore

to prevent it? Is there a mechanism to prevent you from speeding? No, but if you do it, and get caught, you have to answer to the state.

And/or if you get pulled over in Tx and trooper sees a few pounds of marijuana products with you, you have to answer to federal.

Go buy from a local dude what you need for the week, and you likely have neither of those issues. No over possession, and cop doesn't care, even in tx, that you have 2 joints on you.

Now if you're looking for much higher quality or variety of ****, then I get it. Colorado has it!

I was hooking up with a weed dealer for a while, that was nice while it lasted, got all the free weed and edibles I wanted, and she always paid for dinner.

I've covered the price increase by selling high school kids CBD flower and telling them it's pot. I tell them it's called Purple Placebo. Idiots.

They get you to buy the launcher at cost, but the grenades is always where they get you later.
