The nearest dispensary is about a block away. Three blocks to the right is another dispensary, and if you mess up and turn left instead, there’s a different one about 6 blocks that direction.
I kinda hate how massive the weed industry is because these places mean a lot less variety in the retail spaces near me. So many are weed/vape shops and so few are other types of businesses.
I used to joke that in our downtown every block had either a dispensary, a head shop, or a vape shop. Then I found a block with all 3 and it seemed less funny.
Lucky you. Goddamn I’m so jealous. The best I have is a restaurant that sells cannabis-infused Mexican food, brownies, cookies and gummies that’s a half hour away. But it’s also expensive as hell so it’s more of a novelty.
When the state legalized the neighbor city added a tax on all cannabis products. So 80% of the dispensaries opened in this city. Now those dispensaries are in a price war with each other. The number of places with giant signs out front about $30 ounces makes me think that a market correction is on the way.
Most states which legalized years ago have been having problems with over-supply. It’s driven down prices for consumers, certainly, but also made it hard for growers and distributors to make it - which is obviously very normal, I mean, if you have a town with 100,000 people, and some small fraction them actually want to buy weed and there are already 60 weed shops - no surprise. Many people who went to Colorado to start grow ops and seek their fortune went to Oklahoma a few years ago, and then wow, it turns out Oklahoma doesn’t have a limitless legal market and now they’re leaving Oklahoma.

What a time to be alive

That’s not a joke in basically any large Canadian city, that’s just facts. And not even just in downtown but basically anywhere commercially zoned
