50 1g joints, plus four infused ones. Not bad for the 40 American it set me back in a Michigan dispensary. Huge amount of plastic waste though so that sucks

    On the topic of waste from dispensaries, why don’t more dispensaries offer recycling of empty cartridges and such? Maybe even a drop-off for disposables too?

      The dispensary i work for doesn’t even have a recycling dumpster for the massive amounts of package waste we generate. Its disgustingly common. Just because it’s weed doesn’t mean it’s not still just shitty retail business.

      I work in a michigan dispensary and we give Dragonfly joints away like crazy because they’re cheap as fuck and very low quality. When we have an unpleasant customer it’s not uncommon after their transaction for us to joke, “should have given him a free dragonfly”

      Yea, Michigan is cheap as fuck. Here in Minnesota, people still drive to Michigan because the Red Lake and White Earth locations are over $400/oz

          That is absolute fuckin bullshit is what that is.

          I just paid $90/ounce from my guy yesterday, and my state is legal (it’s about $200/ounce here).

          That’s what happens when there’s only 2 rec stores in the state so far, everything else is d8 edibles. It doesn’t help that the lottery got fucked up by giant corps trying to buy licenses from the first round vet/social equity applicants

    I’ve been to an Urb before. I was going to guess Michigan. Was it Monroe? That’s usually where we stop.

      Nope, I go to New Buffalo. I live in Illinois but Michigan rec is cheaper than street in my area so it’s worth the drive, especially when you get to chill on the beach all day
