In the UK, the average ounce of weed will set you back about £200 [$280]. Unless you have a friend rate thing going on with the grower, that is, or—conversely—you buy your weed off someone who very regularly fucks you over. But even if your dealer is a huge dick, it's unlikely they'll be charging you upwards of £250 [$350] an ounce.
