Back in my day, I remember when weed...

Was sold in lids from mason jars. A lot of dealers selling lids didn't carry scales or care if you got an eighth or a quarter because it was always more anyway.
A nickel bag was 5 bucks and a dime bag was 10. Typically .5g and 1g bags.
Almost all dank was called Silver Haze. If it was fluffy it was Northern Lights.
I saw my first real Thai stick and almost no one knew what it meant.
Purple Haze "made you see purple". Average stoners didn't believe weed could be purple until they saw it, or thought it was fake.
Purple sold for twice as much despite more potent strains being sold cheaper.
The first time I saw dense "chemi bud" or "BC bud" and I thought I was ripped off on my ounce since it hardly took up a bag.
When people would lick a sandwich bag to close it. 
When one of my dealers sold to elderly clientele who needed it for medical issues and people thought it was a cop out to smoke weed.

A lid (3 finger) was $15 in 1970, not long after they became ounces for 20. This transition forced me to steal a triple beam from Jr. High science class so I could compete.

"I remember when weed..."
especialy 'home grown', used to be mostly crap.
It was all about the hash over here. A 1/4oz of Morrocan (rocky) £10-11, Lebonese, 'red or blond' £12-14, and Indian/Afghani/Paki black (squishy) £14-16. Baring in mind typical take home pay for a teen was ~£19-21 a week, things seem to be quite a bit cheaper these days. So much for prohibition hah.

>Was sold in lids from mason jars.
I always wondered where the term "lid" came from. They never use it today.
