I Was Bored And Wanted To See What The Cost Per Bowl Was

[NIGHTS OF BAGHDAD]

same when you go to bars..they charge $4 for a bottle of beer when a 6 pack of the same thing is like $5 your not just paying for the item..your paying for the surroundings

if by surroundings you mean operational cost, then yes. it's a business. they have to cover all expenses, salary, property tax expenses, rent (if applicable), i mean just 20 million things that all businesses have to pay for. and then they have to make a profit on top of it.

how much is it to smoke at a lounge here? well we used to go to one that was a comple FOtB a-rab hangout. i mean i had to switch between arabic and english to get the guy to understand me when ordering anything and at time to pay. they had nakhla. only double apple and grape (idk what kind of grape it was but i know they had nak double apple so maybe el basha) and it was 5.99/head and 2.99 for evrey head after that. now since the tax spike i think it jumped to 8.99 per head and 5.99 for every head after that. i don't go to lounges anymore, they suck and are only packed with bros and people worse than the paparazzi trying to get pictures for facebook.

i was still bored so i did it with coals has well..lol

CH instant lights-108 pieces=13.8 cents a coal
CH naturals-132 pieces=9 cents a coal
coconaras 108 piece=12.4 cents a coal
golden canaries 96 pieces=15.6 cents a coal
al fakher 60 piece box= 11 cents a coal

I hope I NEVER get that bored! LOL!

here's a project, please don't do it, factor in price by vendor, promocodes, shipping, and don't forget to factor in speed of delivery, good luck! oh and addition to make it even harder break the price down to "per puff" or "per draw" SERIOUSLY DO NOT DO THIS

Hahahahaha! IF I make $22 an hour, how many minutes do I have to work before I've earned my first bowl?

[fineout]

My local lounge is 5euro per hookah between however many people come, usually around 3 so 1,66 euro per bowl so about 2.4$

You should now factor in smoking time/longevity. This is pretty interesting!

thats very subjective depending on the smoker..times can vary 30 minutes to 2 hours depending on experience level..so i just went with whats solid and wont have 50 different variations to it

You also forgot to add that some shishas don't need "40g" to pack a bowl, like SB, it shouldn't be packed the same way tang, nak, or af should be so it would use ~35g when others use 40g.

at 40g bowl for sb at $22.95 its $3.67 a bowl
at 35g boal for sb at $22.95 its $3.21 a bowl

still pretty high

Yeah I'm just saying not all bowls use the same amount of tobacco per bowl I'm just annoying you -- beause I can.

its funny you used sb to do it..lol coincidence?

[Tyler]

Well SB is just one of the tobaccos I know the best. I don't have fusion down to a science, yet. But think about how much you use to [properly] pack a med phunnel of tangiers, then pack the same bowl [properly] with SB. youll use significantly less tobacco.

i noticed i forgot to add fantasia

200g=$18.95=$3.79 a bowl

and im dieing to try fantasia..but i cant get myself to pay $19 for only 200g

[Tyler]

Fantasia is good but I find SB/AF/Fusion to be better overall for similar flavors. The only reason to buy fantasia is purple haze or pink lemonade.

At my lounge, we have three price tiers: $12 for QT with mod bowl and AF Healthy Hose, $16 for 29" KM Amir with Egyptian bowl and Razan Hose, and $20 for 35" KM Pear with Phunnel Bowl and Grand Hose. This allows us to have "something for everyone." We sell the most out of our $16 "Premium" line which suggests to me that's a comfortable price point for people in this city to pay.

the ones i want to try are
pink lemonade
strawberry lemonade
rasberry lemonade
strawberry/banana split

and my fear is im gona love them and be forced to continue to buy them..lol

you should also consider time till bowl cashed to get the real value...because, a small phunnel bowl will faaaaar outlast a bowl of SB, AF, or whatever....

the longevity of a bowl also increases the tobacco's value...

theres no way of determining that to be honest, its all different for each person..a seasoned pro can make a bowl last 2 hours and a noob only a hour..too many variations to determine something like that..the same with coals..you cant give 1 answer and call it the end all be all..cause people smoke differently..some take 2 hits a minute some takes 15 hits a minute..so its hard to pinpoint something like that down..

but you gave a flat rate amount of tobacco for every brand using a phunnel bowl. when in actuality, it takes a lot less SB or AF to smoke a phunnel than Tangiers. in essence, you just do a cost per gram analysis....which can be done by dividing the price by 250g.

or is my thought process wrong?
