Mixed up shipment

Man waiting for tools gets brick of marijuana

DENTON, Texas – A man in Denton, Texas who was expecting a shipment of tools instead received a 30-pound brick of marijuana that police say is worth more than $10,000. Officer Ryan Grelle says the man opened the box Monday night, realized it contained drugs and contacted police.
The package from the Pharr area was handled by UPS in McAllen on Jan. 6. and apparently was intended for a Dallas address.
The Denton Record-Chronicle reports no such address exists in Dallas, so the package wound up 40 miles to the northwest at the similar address in Denton.

300 a pound?  wow.  think of how much work goes into the growing and transporting those tomatoes or cucumbers in the store at 2 dollars a pound.
