How much money do you spend on drugs daily?

I spend $300 a month, or $10 a day on my marijuana habit. I typically pay between $10-$40 when I once or twice a month, usually on a Friday, play with something besides marijuana.
Combined with maybe $50-$100 of drug "incidentals" (munchies, new pipe, freebase bong for research chems, whatever) I can spend anywhere between $10-$15/day on drugs.
 
Lets see...
I average $40-$60 on the weekends, and I burn trees everyday, but I rarely pay for it... I spend $13 on mass transportation minimum just to go to the city... I spend about another $20ish minimum when I'm in the city to survive (water/juice/food sometimes)...
that means I average: $10.43 - $13.29 :)
damn, I knew I didnt want to figure that out b/c it'd be higher than I would like it to be...
and all the people that spend like $28+, ur crazy! I mean, yea--we all have our week(s)/end(s) but on AVERAGE?? thats just nuts.
 
Well I'd spend about $7.50 on a 1/2 gram of kb per day, (I'm in the process of taking an extended break at the moment). So that works out to about $2700 a year, which isn't bad, but I only make a little under $4000 a year at my part time job after school, which is one of the reasons I'm trying to cut back. I also smoke atleast 5 cigs a day, so that works out to about a dollar or two a day.
Of course every now and then I'll get a 20 of blow or a bottle of whiskey.
 
Ohmigod, i only REALLY just started paying for my drugs about two months ago, before that i had gotten em for free most of the time (for about 8 months!!!) But i guess, i drop on average 2-3 pills a weekend, prolly 2-3 weeks in a month (depending on the month) so now i will sepnd anywhere between $60 - $90 a week, and therefore $180 - $270 a month or $6 - $9 a day. But it really depends wots on, etc. I only use for special events, or when i go up to Sydney woteva.
By the way, that is in Aust $$$.
You poor guys that spend anymore than me... god i couldn't cope spending more than that much a day i dont think!!! Too many other good things to buy.
 
I wish I could get 2 pills for $8.50

I spend £6 (thats what? $8.50 according to XE.com) on the weekend on 2 pills. Thats less than £1 a day. I only do that once every 2/3 months too. If you include alcohol I'm on about £10 a week (drink a lot less than I used to). So ATM I'm about £2 a day, and thats a rather irregular £2 a day.
I expect when I leave school and wait to go off to Uni in the summer I'll increase that a fair amount. A friend and I are planning a summer of just experimenting with a few things we haven't tried before. Might as well have a great summer before getting back to the books :D
 
If I work it out. I seem to spend alot more then I consume a month, I like to have a nice stash! But here is my estimated cost of consumption.
---Monthly---
2 Bundles of dope = $230
30 packs of cigarettes = $120
4 weekends at the bar = $240
Assorted Benzos = $45
Assorted pain pills = $150
1 DG patch = $30
Coke = $200 - $300
Meth = $140
1 bottle of syrup = $10 - $40
Monthly Total = $1165 - $1295
Daily Total = $38.83 - $43.17
 
I'm in the UK,Wales.
Over here most heroin addicts average £10-£30 per day,but skys the limit,
I spent £14,700($25,000) from May to August last year!!!
all on coke,well crack,rock as we call it over here!
What a stupid twat i was,It just got the better of me!!U know da score...
I planned on that money changing my life 4 ever,i wanted to move to india or jamaica!!(bastard)
Never again I tell u.....
I try not to think about it to much...
 
i have heard of serious crack heads using about £300 a day. that works out to be about $423 a day. but crack is some heavy duty stuff. i think boredom in summer leads everyone to smoke copious amounts of crack. i love that word. even though i usually call it "the white stuff." but crack is just such a funny word.
i bet loadsa ya have seen scary movie. i love the bit near the beginning when the dad says to his daughter
dad: what was that sound? i thought i heard screaming.
daughter: nothing daddy.
dad: ok. maybe it was the crack i was smoking earlier.
 
Heh. 400? Maybe percs, but I'm pretty sure they don't make any under 500/5. I'm going to assume that 400mg of oxycontin is enough to kill an elephant. Then again, maybe not.
 
well i smoke about $15 worth of pot a day, but i don't pay for it (nor do i deal it)
and probably take $75-$150 worth of speed on a weekend.
and maybe $30 on alcohol
so i'd estimate i use about $25 worth of drugs but pay for about $15
 
A year ago I would have said about $100-$200 a month, but within that time I've developed a pretty nasty meth problem that has cost me roughly $10,000 in the past month. That comes to about $110 a day. Kinda sucks when you think about all the other shit I coulda got.
 
is 400mg of OC a day possible HAHAHAHAHHA!!!!.... One of your favorite moderators does 400mg of OC on a 'good night'
this is a bit off topic, but unfortunately.. some of us have tremendous opiate tolerances. I remember Soviet saying he knew a guy who had to BANG 240mg a day just to MAINTAIN. I'm not there. But I can sniff 240mg at once and still be able to function properly... like drive! I sniffed about 300mg at my girlfriend's great aunt's funeral, met a bunch of her relatives who loved me, had no idea i was high.. even did a water bump with holy water (for all you people who hate christianity out there, to others, my bad). Sorry, this is a bit off topic.
Another note... when you need this much, you ARE ADDICTED. Something that I didn't learn early enough from bluelight was that tolererance is almost synonymous with dependence.
 
Cigarettes = $100/month
Alcohol = $60-100/month
Sweet Cheebah = $120 a month, I buy Groceries, he buys the other....
Various other party treats = $20/month
Grand total = 340/month = 12/day
One month's worth of rent money isn't that bad :)
 
I'm amazed at what u guys in the US spend on drugs,
although u may not be heavy addicts!!??
But in the UK,
Your average crack head will spend anything between£10-£200 per day!
thats about $17-$320,
heroin addicts £10-£50
these are just averages,the extreme users maybe more,
the moderate users maybe less.
I'd say the majority spend about £30 per day.
