Edibles are only expensive if you're buying them pre-made. Buy distillate and make brownies and it's significantly cheaper plus you can control your dosage. Edible highs also last a lot longer anyway.
Alternatively just move to Oregon and the shits so cheap here that it doesn't even matter lmfao. I ain't a heavy smoker but $30 gets you a whole ounce if you know where the good deals are and that'll last me like 3 months lol
