Over 1 in 10 purchase at least three strains of flower every time they buy.<\/p><h3 class=\"heading_all\">How the cost of living affects cannabis purchase habits<\/h3><p class=\"post_para\">In light of the rising cost of living, Americans have reduced spending across all line items in their budgets, and cannabis is no different. More than half (56%) report changing their cannabis purchase habits in response to the current cost of living. Among them, 40% are buying smaller quantities, 9% are buying smaller quantities of lower quality flower, and 7% are opting for often-cheaper, lower-quality flower.<\/p><p class=\"post_para\">Whether you\u2019re on the hunt for a specific strain or terpene profile, or just want to smoke something that makes you feel good, cannabis now offers something for everyone. As legalization spreads across the nation, more dispensaries, grow operations, and strains will pop up. Cannabis consumers will face ever-more-customizable choices in strain experience, flavor, and price point.<\/p><p class=\"post_para\">The Sanctuary Wellness Institute offers online medical marijuana evaluations, allowing you to access the benefits of a medical marijuana card, which include <a href=\"https:\/\/sanctuarywellnessinstitute.com\/blog\/is-medical-marijuana-tax-deductible\/\"><strong>tax-free purchases<\/strong><\/a> and access to medical-only dispensaries.
