#1 Grow your Cannabis
Growing your own weed is the best way to save money. It's like eating out every night versus cooking your own meals: you get to choose strains specifically, not just based on whatever the store has in stock; you know what materials were used to produce the plant, and in the long run, you'll save hundreds, potentially thousands, of dollars on weed.
#2 Buy in Bulk
When shopping buy in bulk. It'll slash your prices more, and in the end, you're going to smoke that weed regardless. Whether you buy one quarter today, or one gram pre-rolls and joints each day, you're still buying that seven grams, fam. Buy in bulk, get greater discounts, and your wallet will thank you.
#3 Change your consumption methods
Rolling weed uses so much weed. Even the skimpiest joint or pinner ass blunt will require half a gram at least. Add that up throughout the day's sessions and it's easy to smoke an eighth a day. Going by the numbers above, that's at the very least $30 per day — adding up to over $900 a month.
Switching to a more economical way of smoking, like using smaller pipes and bowls, will do wonders for making your weed stretch. Additionally, if you consider potency, it may be better to dab over smoking flower since a single pinpoint-sized portion of oil can get you stoned for hours at a time.

#4 Limit your consumption or take tolerance breaks
My daily schedule includes smoking in the morning, at lunch, after lunch, after work, before dinner, after dinner, and right before bed — and I smoke out of a bong every time. Because of this, I smoke about an ounce a week. If that sounds like you, then it doesn't take a rocket scientist to know spacing out these sessions would greatly conserve the weed in our jars.
Smoking as a reward, and not just as a habit, is the best way of doing this. Instead of hitting that wake 'n bake, get up and lock into whatever tasks you have for the day, then light up afterwards. It'll make your high feel way better because your mind will be clear and the session will be guiltless. If this sounds impossible, then it may be time for a tolerance break altogether. Not only will a break improve your relationship with weed, but it will also cause you to smoke a lot less for your desired experiences.
