Cocaine is Cheaper than Beer

Not only is cocaine easier to find late at night in the UK than beer, it's also cheaper. Indeed, a Home Office report finds that, serving for serving, a line of coke is less expensive than a pint of lager.

A gram of the devil's dandruff sells for an average of £20 ($US40), which is pretty much the street price in the US.

This can be caused by two things: increase in supply or slackening demand. The reality is likely somewhere in the middle. So, while blow is more widely available than before, people aren't going out and cutting fat rails like in Scarface.

Also contributing to the issue is competition: back in the day, Ecstasy was relatively expensive in the UK, but the price plunged around 2003 or so. Dealers were selling value-added packages, with multivitamins, Prozac, condoms, and other such complimentary items for a drug that forces your brain to puke its serotonin.

Since E was cheaper than speed, folks were just doing multiple pills as a matter of course for the sustained amphetamine effect, which is like driving your brain without tires, as the user's serotonin levels remain near zero for sustained periods of time, and the next day is like turning rabid porcupines loose inside your skull. But enough about that- back to the white t-shirt:

"As little as £1(US$2)" should raise some eyebrows, actually... that's not cheap coke, that's expensive laxative.

Don't do coke. It's bad for you and makes you boring.
