Alberta Cannabis website has a $10 shipping charge, a friend who's not a big smoker, just paid over $36 for 2 grams.

Honestly I don't think we'll see volume discounts for at least 6 months. There has to be a baseline market established.

Who knows what the real market will look like once the novelty wears off.

One man is already waiting outside a store in Calgary and will be one of the first to legally buy marijuana on Wednesday.
Rick arrived at the 420 Premium Market location on MacLeod Trail around 3:00 p.m. Tuesday afternoon.

That just seems sad to me. Mind you I think lining up for anything that long in advance is sad.

Had a look at the Alberta site. And my god those prices are a joke lol.

Can currently get a 1/2 ounce shipped to me for $90 from a MOM. These prices are not even in the same ball park. I'm seeing a lot of $13.99/gram

I assume stores will be similar, anyone going to try to go today?

**edit** thats a 1/2 ounce of Gorilla Glue #4

I think you guys are underestimating what kind of premium the public is willing to pay for convenience and legality.

And I say this as a former heavy user who knows many many Terrys.

It's kind of funny watching the news this morning. Global has a "man on the scene" but not a single guy in line will do an interview. So he's just kind of filming people with blankets over their heads waiting to get in the store.

1. Terry sleeps in every day

2. Laughing while you sleep is just disturbing

I find it funny that the people lining up on the first day of legalization don't want to end up on the news... did they not think there would be cameras there?!

You can choose Purolator or Canada Post at checkout. Exact same price either way.

The Alberta online prices are ridiculous. RIDICULOUS.

Any word on the physical store prices?

I assume there is a data base of online buyers. Is that going to make it hard to cross the border? Them INS guys are shifty.
