How much does it cost to support drug addictions?

Question by popcorn: How much does it cost to support drug addictions?
I’m doing a research project about on average how much it costs per day to support drug addictions. The following are the ones I am collecting data on:

a.) heroin
b.) alcohol
c.) cocaine
d.) marijuana
e.) crystal meth
e.) Prescription Pills (i.e. Oxycontin, Vicodin)
f.) Other Pillls (i.e. Adderall, Xanax)

Remember, this is per day.

Please no rude and/or stupid answers. If you have nothing informative to say then please keep your comments to yourself.

Thanks!

This is a tough one only because spending could vary. A habit can average anywhere from $ 2 a day (light marijuana smoker) to over $ 800 a day (hard heroin user). Many factors will be involved to come up with an accurate answer.
