When you're annoyed about the cost of weed going up, who should you talk to? Probably anyone else, but the police.

The folks at Australia's Northern Territory Police received an "unusual" phone call from a woman complaining about the cost of marijuana from her local drug dealer increasing.

"Completely offended, the woman demanded that police investigate this 'outrageous' price hike. When asked for further details, the woman hung up," the police Facebook post reads.

Unsurprisingly, there were plenty of people who had a giggle at the odd request.

Of course, the Northern Territory Police stated that it'd love to help when it comes to matters of the cost of drugs, encouraging the aggrieved to contact authorities.

"If you know a drug dealer who is ripping you off, give us a call, we'd love to help," the post reads.

Cue nervous laughter.
