Thought you were joking

"The suspect posted four photos on Facebook showing each location as hints to locate the eggs," the release said. "He also posted a photo of five plastic eggs in the seat of a vehicle. Officers found four eggs and believed he had not placed the fifth."

Officers learned they were incorrect in their assumption when a man and his granddaughter turned the final egg into the department the next day, having also found it in a park, per the release. In total, officers said they recovered over a quarter of an ounce of marijuana

over a quarter of an ounce of marijuana

So like $100-200 worth of weed? Unless it was like shake or something.

[–] Confused_Emus@lemmy.dbzer0.com 7 points 6 hours ago

Much less than that. I get an ounce for $100 from my dealer. And he’s competing with dispensaries, so it’s not shake, either.

A quarter oz is $40-$70 at dispensaries in my area (medical legal state)

In Northern California you can get a crappy ounce for $50, a good one for $100

thank you for the economics lesson i was gettin ready

Damn, that's cheap. In my part of the UK, $80 would get you a quarter ounce of what my peers consider to be decent, but would probably be crappy by California standards.

Used to be cheaper precovid, good one for 80$, depends on the strain tho, the common easy to grow ones were like 70-80 and good
