Did some math on this because I was curious. Buying 3.5g of flower and rolling yourself vs buying equivalent pre-rolls:

Example with Good Supply:
3.5g flower: ~$28
7x 0.5g pre-rolls: ~$42

You're paying about 50% more for the convenience. Worth it for some situations but rolling your own saves serious cash.

Plus you know exactly what's going into your joint.

also pre-rolls often have shake/trim mixed in. rolling your own you see exactly what you're smoking
