How much was weed when you started?

The title says it all - When did you start to smoke? How much was an ounce?

I started in 1968 - a lid (an ounce) was $15.

Haha, great thread. In 1973 in Michigan I bought my first "elbow" of Meskin for $150. I was selling O-zees from that for like $30 IIRC. "Lids" were like $10-15 - and I always thought a lid was like 1/2 oz. Ahh, memories

Cheers,

When i first started 15 years ago weed/pot/grass whatever you wanna call it was something you'd see in a hollywood film.

It was pretty much just hash, but it was good hash leb gold paki black ect ect.

My boyfriend and his brother grew (at his brother's house) and I had no idea. I called him the 'weed fairy'. We dated for 5 years. It was really irritating to him after we broke up and I dropped the weed part of his title.
