Ads on Craigslist Sell A Plastic Bag Filled With A Gift Of Marijuana

In November, voters approved a ballot question that allows adults over 21 to possess and grow small amounts of marijuana in Massachusetts. It’s still illegal for individuals to sell it, but one salesperson is openly trying to work around the law.

This past week, a some ads on the Craigslist page for Western Massachusetts offered “dispensary grade marijuana.” They appeared just days after Governor Charlie Baker signed a bill delaying legal retail sales of marijuana until the middle of 2018.

One of these ads offered sandwich bags containing a gram to just under an ounce of various “strains” for $20 to $325, but it ends with a disclaimer: “I am selling you an empty bag. Marijuana placed In that empty sandwich bag is simply a legal gift.”

But is it?
