If you’ve made it through yet another long week, then a nice Shatterday may be just what you need! “What’s Shatterday?” you ask. It’s a Saturday with some concentrated cannabis deals! On “Shatterday” Saturdays you can often get great prices on concentrates!
Here, we break down shatter and shatter prices specifically.
If you know your way around a dab rig, then you know that high-quality concentrates are the only way to fly. If you’re unfamiliar with dabbing, it’s not too different from using an old-school bong.
The main difference is that instead of a flower-filled bowl there is a nail.
A dab nail is a metal spike. If it’s made from glass or ceramic, then it’s called a banger.
The spike is heated with a hand torch.
While it is hot, a piece of concentrate is placed on the hot nail, and you inhale the vapor produced as it melts.
It’s pretty simple.
There are a number of different kinds of concentrates that can be used in a dab rig. Each has its pros and cons. There are hash oils, waxes, budders (or butters), live resin and shatter. The last one is what we want to take a closer look at.
Some concentrates are soft and pliable, like butter and crumble. Shatter is rigid like glass. In fact, to use it, you simply break or snap off a piece. Then you place it on the heated nail, which converts it almost immediately into vapor. Breathe through the mouthpiece and inhale the concentrated cannabinoid cloud. Ta-dah!
Shatter is made with butane as a chemical agent that separates cannabinoids and terpenes from plants. You start with dried marijuana. Butane solvent is added and then evaporated through low heat. The resulting liquid is processed into a hard, brittle, amber-colored material.
That’s shatter.
The final product is pretty potent. Shatter can run about 80 percent THC content! That’s pretty high - but legal - for recreational or medical use in states such as Colorado and Washington. So if you’re in a recreational state, no worries – you can legally buy shatter. If you’re in a medical state – and have a card – then you can also get shatter. Getting yourself some of the good stuff is something that we’ll get into shortly.
Shatter can be added with weed in a pipe or regular bong bowl. It can be added to a hand-rolled joint. But most folks are gonna dab it.
Shatter is sold by the gram. That means at your favorite dispensary you can get this concentrate in lots of 1g, 2g, 4g, or even 8g. In some places, you can even buy a pound of shatter if you so desire – though that would be very expensive! There may be local limits so check before you buy in bulk.
The reason that shatter is sold by grams is the power in each puff. With high amounts of THC there’s a lot in each little bit of shatter. When you take a rip from your rig, you only need a little bit at a time. Concentrated cannabis means small amounts are plenty!
Because of the popularity of dabbing, Shatterday specials abound. Prices on concentrates will vary depending upon the particular strain, availability, and by geographic location. 1 gram can run around $60 in a legal state like Colorado.
Saturdays are a good day for dispensaries to drive business. They do this by offering specials on concentrates. Hence Shatterday.
A usable amount of shatter doesn’t necessarily cost you an arm and a leg. Again, dispensary deals are everywhere. A little searching can go a long way! There’s nice pricing to be found, especially on the weekend!
Since you’re here, we’re assuming you’d like to get some good Shatterday – or any day – bargains.

$12.95 WAX & SHATTER - MIX-N-MATCH
$38.92 (Pre-Tax) for a 4g Bucket of Kayak Wax or Shatter
Medical and recreational dispensaries are the best places to get yourself some shatter. Legal states that have been doing this for a while are able to bring down prices a bit more since supply is high and demand, while still high, is attainable. Lucky for you, Colorado is one (and the first) of those states.
Word of mouth and dispensary reviews are two good ways to determine where to shop.
Couponing can also lead you to where you want to go to get some weed!
For experienced dabbing enthusiasts or beginners, affordable shatter can be found. Decent pricing is out there.
A little goes a long way, so you don’t necessarily need a lot to get the effects you’re after.
Remember – concentrates are called that for a reason. Just a tiny bit applied to a nail or topping a weed pipe will give you a good buzz!
But if you want to buy in bulk, discounts on quantity can also be had.
Once you’ve determined where to go, then all you have to do is get there.
Shatter in hand, you can then try a little at a time of whatever strain you’ve selected to see how it works for you. It isn’t rocket science, though you may go into orbit.
Buy, try, and, if you like it, then you are all set!
Enjoy your Shatterday!
