Oh, marijuana, how we love thee. Though I’m sure you may get tired of constantly running back and forth to the dispensary. So you say to yourself, “I need to start buying weed by the ounce.”

As the years since legalization has passed, prices on marijuana have continued to decrease in the state of Colorado. 

The cost of weed is lower here than in most other markets. 

Be thankful.

So you’ve decided you are getting an ounce. 

Well, then, let’s explore the wonderful world of Oz – ounces, that is, and we have some cheap oz deals.

I’ll break down ounce pricing for you so you have a better idea of how much you should pay for an ounce (oz) of fine cannabis, as well as locations. 

Let’s find you that cheap oz!

The Legal Limit

It’s always good for me to start by saying that an ounce (oz) of marijuana weighs 28 grams. Some refer to an ounce as a zip, O, or, as we’ve been mentioning, “Oz”. 

Most importantly, one ounce of marijuana is the legal limit one can possess at any time in Colorado.

Ounce Prices From Not Too Long Ago

In the 2000s, marijuana prices fluctuated very widely. 

You could get an ounce for $50 but you could expect it to be some of the lowest quality you could get. 

These cannabis ounces typically had an abundance of leaves, stems, plant material, and very little quality flower.

For higher grade marijuana, the further you lived from the coast, the worse the prices got. Places in the midwest would expect to pay upwards of $650. 

Thank God for marijuana legalization.

The Art of Buying in Bulk

It might seem like a “duh, Cannasaver”, but buying more weed at once can save lots of money. Think about it – if you are someone going to the dispensary every day and are only grabbing a gram or two at a time that’s about $20 a run. Not to mention gas, traffic headaches, and so forth.

If you were to only spend about $5 more, you could have gotten an eighth and received 1.5 grams more. Having that much more to save aside. Price breaks increase considerably as weight increases. Save up a little more money and you will get much more marijuana for less money!

Dispensaries love giving discounts for bulk purchases as they help dispensaries move products faster allowing for fresher products to come in.

Has this ever happened to you?  

One day you’re out for a nice evening stroll when out of nowhere a wild gang of highly trained, rogue opossum ninjas begin to follow you.

They scamper through gutters and people’s yards, hiding in the shadows behind garbage cans stopping but for a brief snack and sip of water only to catch up to you as quickly as they had stopped to break from their pursuit. 

You begin to worry a bit and tell yourself it's only the joint that your buddy hooked you up with and it must be some potent ganja, but then you look back again and the opossum gang is still there and getting closer... 

So, you begin to run, and in doing so, twist your ankle and fall down. 

Then, you look back up and it turns out the opossums weren’t actually trying to catch you but were just neighborhood cats and there was a fish market halfway up the block ahead of you and they knew it was the time that all the excess fish got put in the alley for them to feast on. 

But now you’ve got a sprained ankle and feel silly about the whole situation. 

Fear not!

Now that you have injured yourself and need to go see a doctor for the pain in your foot, you are well on your way to getting a medical marijuana card. 

This situation hasn’t happened to us, but if it did to you, then we are sorry for your pain and possible PTSD from the whole ordeal and we have some good news! 

You are more than likely qualified to get your medical marijuana card!! 

Benefits of Getting a Medical Marijuana Prescription

Many states are now fully legal both medically and recreationally, however some states still are only medically legal. 

For some, having a medical card and being able to legally carry and consume cannabis as the medicine it is, can be the difference between living a happy, productive, pain-medicated life through cannabis and getting a potentially dangerous pain medication prescription. 

We here at Cannasaver think everyone should have safe access to medicine that fits their life and works with their body and mind.  

In this blog, we’ll give you some tips on how to get a medical card in your state and some helpful tips to get you through the process it takes to get one.  

If you are thinking about getting your card, we have found that having your medical card can be the difference between a large ticket or worse and being let go by an officer of the law if you are ever in a sticky situation with cannabis.  No pun intended. 

There have been times for us that we have been pulled over in a state where cannabis is not recreationally legal but is medical, had our medical card, and been let go with our medicine. 

Now, this isn’t always the case and it won’t get you out of a Driving While Under the Influence ticket if the officer deems you are intoxicated (and we strongly discourage you from driving under the influence), but it definitely doesn’t hurt to have if you are ever in any situation.

Conditions for Getting Medical Marijuana Prescription

The first step is acquiring proof that you have a condition that can be treated through medical cannabis. 

Luckily, the list is pretty long.

Alzheimer's disease

Appetite loss

Cancer

Crohn's disease

Diseases affecting the immune system like HIV/AIDS or Multiple Sclerosis (MS)

Eating disorders such as anorexia

Epilepsy

Glaucoma

Mental health conditions like schizophrenia and posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD)

Multiple sclerosis

Muscle spasms

Nausea

Pain

Seizures

Wasting syndrome (cachexia)

How to Get a Medical Marijuana Prescription

Once you have documented proof that you have one or more of these conditions, it’s time to do a Google search of cannabis doctors in your state.  There will probably be a long list of doctors so we recommend picking one near to you. 

Oftentimes, these doctors will do events where they travel around the state and see many patients in one day.  We have seen a decrease in the number of doctors in some states where cannabis has become recreationally legal.  

After you’ve seen your doctor and have the signed form for the state indicating you are prescribed medical marijuana, you will need to mail it into the licensing office along with your other supporting documents so that they may issue you a medical card.  

Why Should I Get My Medical Card Even If It’s Legal In My State?

In many states, there are still benefits to having your medical marijuana card. 

For example, in Colorado having your card allows you to buy stronger cannabis products at lower prices. 

You are allowed to carry more cannabis with you at one time. 

You are allowed to grow more plants to produce your medicine. 

There isn’t much of a downside to getting your card but only a larger upside.
