Thanks Colino, I'll look out for them and maybe get a couple to sell on Ebay seeing as folk are paying double the 4.50E

I wouldn't pay €5 for it, maybe 1 or 2 as a souvenir as it's just a book full of adverts.

Thought as much myself, any 'book' that promises tons of discounts/savings is usually sailing quite close to being a con. Website's not too bad but doesn't seem to have been updated since 2007ish -

yep i got one in 2008ish, purely as a momento. its pretty much all smoking related adverts, and the actual info doesn't touch the wealth of info on here, but its a nice keepsake of asterdam.

I remember the first time I went (before discovering this website!) and I bought this from my local headshop.
Thought it was a good insight into coffeeshops and made me feel "ready" for it all rather then stepping into the unknown
The vouchers are utter crap though some are for mushrooms (which are banned!) and for bars that don't sell booze anymore! The vouchers do make good roach though

the only good thing about this book are the flavour descriptions on some of the weed reviews. 'baby poopy flava'. 'pissy, minty smell'. Appetising.
