Cannabis for Less Than $25 in Montana from Elevated

Legalization changed more than the law in Montana. It reshaped how cannabis is grown, priced, and shared across the state. Once production moved into local hands, the rollercoaster of supply and cost finally leveled out. Instead of prices inflated by outside suppliers, Montanans now enjoy consistent, fair value built on homegrown quality.

The cannabis economy here is steady, sustainable, and grounded in real cultivation practices rather than hype or scarcity.

So, what can you actually get for $25 in Montana today?

• Several pre-rolled joints made from Montana-grown flower
• A small 10-pack of locally baked edibles
• A quarter-ounce of select craft flower
• An eight-ounce of tier 3 premium flower

The question most shoppers still ask is, “Can I really find good cannabis for under $25?” The answer is yes, and Elevated is a prime example of how it can be done.

With more than seventy in-house strains, a bakery that produces edibles in small batches, and pricing designed to stay accessible, Elevated makes quality affordable without compromise.

Every store operates with transparent pricing and knowledgeable budtenders who guide customers toward products that fit both effect and budget.

In the sections that follow, you’ll see why Montana’s cannabis pricing has stabilized, how taxes shape the final number at checkout, and what makes locally grown flower consistently better value. We’ll also spotlight several Elevated products that deliver standout experiences for less than $25 across flower, edibles, and pre-rolls.

Understanding Cannabis Pricing in Montana

Cannabis pricing in Montana reflects every stage of regulated production, from cultivation to packaging and taxation. The figure on the shelf represents a complete chain of safety checks, compliance requirements, and operational costs designed to keep the market stable and the products trustworthy.

The Real Costs Behind the Price Tag

Every legal cannabis batch in Montana must clear multiple checkpoints before sale. Licensed cultivators invest in controlled growing environments, nutrient management, pest control, and skilled labor to maintain potency and consistency.

Each harvest is tested by certified laboratories under the Quality Assurance Testing Requirements, which detail the full list of analyses required for potency, contaminants, and microbial safety.

Once the product passes testing, it moves through mandatory packaging and labeling stages. State law requires child-resistant, tamper-evident containers and accurate labeling for every batch, as outlined in the Labeling and Packaging Guide for Non-Wholesale Marijuana and Marijuana Products.

These steps protect consumers but also add measurable cost to each gram or edible sold.

Well-run, vertically integrated operations absorb many of these expenses internally. By growing, processing, and selling their own cannabis, Montana businesses like Elevated avoid third-party markups and pass those savings directly to customers.

This efficiency allows premium flower, pre-rolls, and edibles to stay within the $25 price point while still meeting strict testing and packaging standards.

Taxes: The Hidden Factor That Pushes Prices Up

he largest price jump happens at checkout. Adult-use cannabis in Montana carries a 20 percent state excise tax and an optional local-option tax of up to 3 percent, according to the Montana Department of Revenue Cannabis Tax Overview.

Medical cannabis, by comparison, is taxed at only 4 percent, as defined in Montana Code Annotated 15-64-102.

Most dispensaries list pre-tax prices, which can lead to a small surprise at the register. A flower eighth labeled at $20 may total $24 or more once state and local taxes are applied.

Understanding how these taxes stack helps shoppers plan their budgets realistically and see that the final cost reflects Montana’s effort to keep the legal market transparent, accountable, and self-sustaining.

Montana’s Market in Context: How We Compare Nationally

Montana holds a unique position in the U.S. cannabis scene.

While prices for an ounce of flower often land around $266 in Montana according to recent data, they are lower than some established markets and higher than the absolute lowest states. For example, average ounce prices in Oregon hover near $210, while Colorado sits around $240, and Illinois averages closer to $350.



That relative affordability stems from Montana’s smaller population and largely local operations.

With fewer distributors driving up cost and supply chains confined largely within state borders, Montana growers and retailers avoid many of the markup layers seen where product crosses multiple states.

Why Locally Owned Dispensaries Are More Affordable

The rules for legal cannabis in Montana require all flower sold in the state’s dispensaries to be grown locally. While this rule clearly benefits growers, in order for the consumers to benefit as well the distribution also needs to be conducted fairly and efficiently.

This is where Montana-owned dispensaries such as Elevated shine. Unlike many out-of-state competitors who enter the Montana market just to make quick profits, we have a business run by people born and raised in the state that takes pride in serving the local community

We offer Montana-grown strains with strong quality and value, even when the price point is $25 or less. In a landscape of volatile wholesale swings and interstate logistics, Montana’s in-state model gives consumers access to reliable value without compromising standards.

Elevated’s Fair Pricing Promise

Our pricing philosophy is built on efficiency and transparency. By overseeing cultivation, processing, and retail within the same network, the company avoids outside markups and passes savings directly to customers.



Every product is Montana-grown, carefully tested, and priced with the local economy in mind. The approach supports both value and accountability: fair wages for growers, fair pricing for customers, and a consistent focus on quality that lasts.

Locally Owned, Priced for Local Budgets

Elevated cultivates more than seventy strains in controlled environments. Even more importantly, the entire process takes place in the local context and employs Montanans in all parts of the process.

The same logic applies to Elevated’s in-house bakery. Each batch of edibles is produced on site using tested extracts and locally sourced ingredients. Managing the entire process keeps quality consistent and costs predictable.

In effect, when you buy from Elevated you are always getting a fair deal without needlessly inflated prices. What’s more, you are supporting a local company that cares about Montana and gives back to the community in various ways.

Many of these efficiencies come from vertical integration, where cultivation, processing, and retail all operate under one roof. As a result, select eighths and quarter-ounce options stay below twenty-five dollars even after tax and local discounts.

Edibles: Flavor, Potency, and Value in Every Bite



Edibles are a smart option for shoppers who want predictable dosing and long-lasting value. They maintain potency for months when stored properly and provide consistent results for medical and recreational customers alike.

Elevated’s bakery produces its own line of edibles, and the brand partners with Montana-based confectioners to expand its variety without adding transportation or distribution costs.

Top choices under $25:

• High & Mighty THC Gummies Cherry – $16.00: Ten gummies at ten milligrams each, offering an approachable entry for new consumers or microdosers.

Pre-Rolls and Singles: Everyday Affordability

Pre-rolls remain the most popular entry point for new consumers and an everyday choice for regulars who want convenience and quality on a smaller budget.



Elevated’s pre-rolls are hand-packed with fresh ground flower from in-house harvests rather than trim or shake, maintaining flavor and potency at a competitive price.

Top pick under $25:

• Cannarette Hybrid 0.5g (2 pieces) – $12: Made with shredded rather than ground flower and wrapped into premium rice paper that guarantees an even burn throughout, our cannarettes offer a smooth and rich smoking experience.

All pre-rolls are sealed immediately after rolling to preserve terpenes and freshness, ensuring every smoke feels like it just left the curing room. For customers seeking consistent quality at a low entry price, these products represent the strongest value across Elevated’s statewide menu.

Affordable Cannabis Without Compromise

Nobody wants to spend a fortune on weed, and for some people pricing is really a crucial factor. In a legal market, it’s possible to find good deals for premium cannabis and restock your stash even with as little cash as $25.
