So, we have our first medical marijuana desp.

[backtoblue]

Only one open in the state (I think)

So I called and got some info. (Already have my ID card)

$15 a GRAM.... no edibles available for another few weeks


Highway robbery! Of course insurance doesn't help with the costs.

Just needed to rant....being poor with MS kinda sucks!

1. When they get some competition it will ease up. I hope it happens for you soon.

[backtoblue]

2. TY. I hope so too

There is one close by that's supposed to open soon.

I just could not believe the prices. If I add the 30 dollars for gas to drive all that way, it's way past my budget.

[Runningdawg]

3. If you have to drive a long way it sounds like investing in your own plant(s) might be the way to go

5. I don't think it's legal to grow in AR

That would be the greatest thing ever.

4. Was it cheaper on the black market (i.e., the street corner)?

Certainly, the quality is better at the dispensary, yes?

It's around that price in FL, where I live and have my card.

6. Yes cheaper black market, I too am in Fl. But the quaility

is usually better with the MM.
As far as I know, most people know someone they trust and don't purchase from the street corner. OTOH, someone is buying from them.

9. I don't have access to the black market.

I'm just glad I could get the card.

I find that the Trulieve dispensary has better quality products than the Curaleaf.

7. Way back when...

I remember 30$ quarters. Haven't bought any pot in years because I didn't want to go to jail.


I was really looking forward to using it for my muscle spasms, but DAMN the legal stuff is expensive.

[Runningdawg]

8. When I first got my card I thought it was expensive too

I was spending about $60 month on the black market. But $30 from the dispensary works so much better and it lasts longer than $30 black market. I got a vape pen and cartridge for my BD (4-15) together they were $75 I smoke daily and I am still on the first cartridge. I have a at least 1/4 left. It takes getting used to but in the long run, I have no doubt you will get it to work for you.

10. $15 a gram sounds a little high to me

(Good luck with your MS)

[backtoblue]

11. It'll probably come down once the other stores open

I was diagnosed with "probable MS" recently, along with several disc herniations in my neck and lumbar.

I'm getting around pretty good right now. No bad vision problems and I only use a cane occasionally.

The worst part of it is the numbness and the ridiculous shaking in my legs.

I despise the muscle relaxers so marijuana is a good treatment for me.

12. Too bad you are out there...I'd give you the hook up. nt

13. You're.the.awesome!
