If you’re a regular reader, I hope you’re not getting tired of these promotional pieces because I know I’ve been throwing quite a few at you. We’ve had November Deals and Black Friday Deals and a couple random deals thrown in for good measure, and I know it’s a lot. But then again, every single one of these blogs is designed to save you money, so I don’t feel that bad. And frankly, these things are fun to write. I’m 40, so I come from the days when there was no such thing as a “special” on marijuana, let alone holiday discounts, so every time I write one of these, it feels like I’m normalizing legal marijuana, and that’s a good thing. So, without further ado, here’s a list of all the deals you’ll find in our Durango dispensary this December:

1.) We started this first deal on Black Friday, but since it went so well, we’re going to keep it going until we sell out of supplies. So, if you come in and buy any two Stillwater products, you can snag a Ripple Relief or a box of Honey Lavender gummies for $1.

2.) We’re offering a “2 for $40” deal on all our Dixie gummy packs and milk chocolate bars, and if you buy these products normally, you know that’s a spectacular deal. Usually, it’d cost you $48 for two of these products, so you’ll be able to save more than 16% throughout December if you buy in bulk.

3.) From 12/15 through 12/21, we’re running a BOGO 50% off deal on all locally produced Sweet Cartridges. Last month, we ran this special for just one day, and it was insane, so we decided to see what would happen if we did it for a whole week (it’ll probably be more insanity).

4.) And then the next week, from 12/22 though 12/28, we’ll be running a BOGO 50% off deal on all Incredibles products, because we didn’t want to leave you edible lovers in the lurch.

5.) This one is my favorite because it still blows my mind that you can walk into a dispensary and buy a gift card for someone who can then come in later to use it on marijuana. For real, isn’t that crazy? These things are bona fide gift cards with magnetic strips and everything, just like the ones sold at restaurants, and I love that we have a cannabis version. Anyway, if you come in and buy a $25 gift card for someone, we’ll sell you two, full-gram joints for $10, which comes out to 50% off. See what I mean? That guy I used to meet in parking lots never did anything like that for me!

There; that covers it. But I also want you to know that even though we’re packing December full of savings, we’re still going to honor all of our daily deals that you can read about HERE. We’re still offering a 20% discount on everything in the store to veterans, all day every day, and the same goes for those of you who have valid Colorado Medical Marijuana cards. And yes, I’d imagine that another deal of some sort pops up sometime during the month, because when it comes to saving you money on marijuana this December, We’re Your Best Buds!

Black Friday Marijuana Deals in Durango

Posted on November 23, 2019 - 9:00 am

Yes, we’re going to have Black Friday specials, and I mean, why not? We do everything else that a regular retail shop does, from providing coupons to giving birthday specials, so who says we can’t run a Black Friday special or two? And we’re not the only ones because quite a few of our vendors have agreed to run specials with us, but of course, since this is the cannabis industry, many of them are calling the day after Thanksgiving “Green Friday.”

At first, I thought is was a bit cheesy and cliché, but now, I kind of like it. The “Black” in “Black Friday” connotes a dark day of misery, fighting the lines in department stores just to scoop up “deals” in a frenzy of consumerism, and that’s not what cannabis is about. It’s about enjoying the plant and the relaxation in can provide, it’s about community and natural relief, it’s about honoring our roots and reveling in the fact that prohibition is over. But we must be realistic and admit that we’re a retail operation, plain and simple, which goes hand-in-hand with specials, which is a truth that’s spreading across the nation. Actually, did you know that residents in Michigan will be able to buy recreational marijuana starting December 1^st? They’ve joined the team, and they’ll get to walk the line between consumerism and the holistic nature of marijuana just like the rest of us, which is exciting.

I just hope they remember what it’s all about, because we got where we are today thanks to the community and culture that surrounds cannabis, and an easy way to do that is to embrace the cheesiness and call the day “Green Friday.” But regardless of what you call it, the deals we’re running that day are simply spectacular, and I promise that the day after Thanksgiving will be a fun one in our Durango dispensary. The people in our lines will be much happier than the ones standing in line at Walmart, because nothing at that “super store” gets you high. But I digress; let’s get into our specials:

1.) I put together a spectacular gift basket (making marijuana gift baskets might be my calling), and we’re going to have a no-purchase-necessary drawing. So, even if you planned on staying home on Black Friday just like you would during the zombie apocalypse, I’d recommend coming into our shop and dropping your name in the basket, because it doesn’t cost a thing.

2.) Just because it’s Black Friday doesn’t mean that we’re going to put our regular November Deals on hold, so you’ll still be able to pick up two Binske Gummies for $40, or two ABV Disposable Vape Pens for $60.

3.) And we’re still going to honor our regular Friday Deal as well even though we have a ton of other specials, so if you spend $50 before tax, we’ll sell you a one-gram joint for $1.

4.) Dixie has joined in the fun, so on the 29^th, you’ll be able to take advantage of a “buy one, get on half-off (BOGOHO?) with all the Dixie gummies, mints, and straight-up milk chocolates.

5.) We’re running a 30% off deal on Altus Tablets, and frankly, this product is awesome. The Altus tablets come in either Sativa or Indica, they’re as discrete as an edible gets, the shelf life is long if you don’t consume regularly, and each pack of tablets provides 100mg THC for only $16.80. This deal is bonkers (I hope that didn’t make me sound like a used car salesman).

6.) We’re running another BOGOHO deal on Sweet CO2 Cartridges and Syringes. This means you’ll be able to scoop up two locally produced 500mg carts for $60, and if you were paying attention, you’ll realize that taking advantage of this deal alone will get you a $1 joint, which is also bonkers.

7.) This deal is a good one because it starts on Black Friday, but it won’t stop until supplies run out: if you buy any two Stillwater products, you can snag a Ripple Relief or a box of Honey Lavender gummies for $1. Yes, that’s one dollar.

8.) And lastly, all our Green Cross products will be 30% off, which is huge. This deal applies to all sorts of edibles including the CannaPunch drinks, Highly Edible gummies (which are vegan), and the Stroopwafels from Dutch Girl (which come in caramel or strawberry, and I can’t stop eating these things), and the Nordic Goddess Salve and Wrangler Relief.

Man… this is the first time I’ve written down all our deals at once, and looking at the list, it seems a bit crazy, but then again, that’s what Black (or Green) Friday is about, right? We’re offering savings on everything from drinks, edibles, salves, vapes, and flower, so no matter how you like to consume, we’ve got you covered. Just remember to acknowledge how special it is to be able to buy marijuana legally while you’re rolling in the savings. Either way, even on Black Friday, We’re Your Best Buds!

Please remember that discounts and deals cannot be combined.

Retail establishments always seem to rush the holidays, and it seems to get worse year after year. Know what I mean? Pumpkins and Halloween decorations appeared at the grocery stores this year in early August, and even though the holiday hasn’t yet arrived, I saw the same decorations on clearance yesterday to make room for the Christmas stuff. The stores keep jumping ahead to push products associated with what’s on the horizon instead of what’s happening now, and the consumerism behind it all makes the holidays fly by when we should be taking our time with the season to savor each individual holiday. That’s what it’s all about.

In that vein, I feel a bit guilty about this post because cobwebs still adorn our Durango dispensary, yet here I sit, writing about the deals that are coming next month. Granted, that’s only one week away so it’s not like I’m jumping the gun like the stores already selling fake Christmas trees (yes, they’re already here), but I’m still going to keep December’s deals to myself to slow things down a bit (that, and I’m not sure what we’re doing in December, so it’s not like I could tell you anyway). So, here’s most of what’s happening this November at The Greenery (I say most because the holidays wouldn’t be holidays without surprises):

1.) We’re running a “2 for $40” special on Binske gummies (which would usually cost you $48, so this deal is awesome). Just so you know, when it comes to edible companies, Binske is as good as they get. In fact, Leafly named Binske their “edible brand of the year,” Binske is now the largest marijuana brand in the world (ranked by territory served), and the company has even been featured in Forbes magazine. Binske takes quality to a higher echelon with their craft edibles, and the artwork on their packaging is next level. Their gummies are vegan and delicious, so they fit everyone’s needs, and frankly, we couldn’t be happier about the deals this November because these gummies are newer than most, and plenty of people are about to discover something awesome when they take advantage of this sale.

2.) We’re also running a “2 for $60” deal on the ABV disposable vape pens (for which you’d usually pay $70). Now, before I get into this one, I want you to know that we’re aware of all the bad news that’s out there regarding vape pens, but ABV went so far as to send us a letter detailing the additive-free formula of their ethanol-extracted oil, and if you’re worried, please come in and ask to read it. Anyway, each of these disposable pens contains 300mg of terpene-enriched oil that’s potent and wonderful. If you’re traveling and you don’t want to invest in a complete vape set up with a battery and cartridge, a disposable is the way to go. That, and the only thing better than one disposable is two of them, which is why this deal is so awesome.

And that’s that. We’ll get extra-festive and run a Black Friday special, so make sure you’re enrolled in our Loyalty program for the exclusive details. Also, we will indeed do something special for December because the entire month is the cornerstone of the holiday season, but you’ll need to wait to see what it is (because I have to wait, too). Either way, please come see our dispensary this holiday season because the munchies make any Thanksgiving feast better, I promise that gifts bought here will please anyone on your list (so long as they’re 21+), and because We’re Your Best Buds!

Marijuana Recall

I bought my daughter a cheap and used Ford Taurus for her first car because I didn’t want to spoil my teenager, and because I know her. She’s the type of child who doesn’t value things unless she has to work for them (which, I suppose, is like all teenagers), so I figured it’d only be a month or two before her free car exploded due to neglect. But then one day, she called me while driving on the highway with panic in her voice because that Ford Taurus wouldn’t stop. I got her to put the car in neutral and pull over, so this story has a happy ending, but I ended up sitting with that car in a shop for at least an hour while they fixed a recall that should’ve been taken care of by the previous owner. That’s why it was so frustrating—the “recall” Ford sent out didn’t do anything to keep my daughter safe, because we found out about it after it almost killed her.

Would it blow your mind if I told you the same thing just happened across Colorado with marijuana? Well, it did, but I should back up a bit before I get to that. The best part of a legal recreational marijuana market is the fact that it’s all regulated: every grower in the state must submit samples of their marijuana to a state-certified lab so it can be tested for pesticides, heavy metals, and microbials (or mold). Now, I’m not saying this is what happened with the company I’ll tell you about in a moment, but there have always been nasty rumors out there about grows that microwave their test samples (or soak them in chemicals) to kill the mold before it’s sent off to testing. As I’m sure you’ve already figured out, that’ll make it so the test sample passes, but that small sample came from a very large crop, so it’s still possible to put moldy pot on the market. Before we go any further, I want to swear up and down to you that The Greenery has never done something like this, nor would we, because we’re a steward of legal cannabis, and we follow the regulations as if there were commandments from above. We also work exclusively with Aurum Labs, a Durango based state-certified lab, who shares our profound respect and loyalty to the state’s safety regulated testing.

But, moving on, what would happen if the Denver Department of Public Health and Environment went around to dispensaries, purchased small amounts of marijuana that had already “passed,” and then retested the retail samples? Well, that’s exactly what happened, and on October 14^th, they released a bulletin stating that they had found tons of moldy pot. Uh oh… As it turns out, there was a largescale grow called Bonsai Cultivation that distributed moldy pot with yeast in it (so, so disgusting) to 144 dispensaries across Colorado, and all of it had to be recalled even though a good deal of it was already sold to the public and consumed.

Do you see how this is exactly like my daughter’s first car? That marijuana recall didn’t do anything for all the people who already put moldy pot into their lungs, but I guess it’s better late than never. Anyway, the important thing here is that there were multiple dispensaries right here in Durango that were affected, but THE GREENERY WAS NOT ONE OF THEM. Most of our pot is grown right here in Durango at our own Greenery Grow, and we don’t cut corners. Ever. And I’m not going to tell you which of the shops in town were affected because I don’t want you to think that all of their products suck, but I will tell you how to figure out if you’ve been affected personally. One of the other regulations in this state is that every container of retail marijuana (recreational or medicinal) must be labeled with the license number for the grow from which the flower came. So, bust out your stash, and then look at the labels on your pot for the license number 403R-00228. If you find that number, don’t smoke the pot. Simply call the dispensary from which you bought it (again, it won’t be ours), and then tell them you have marijuana affected by the state-wide recall. Easy cheesy.

Just to let you know how big of a deal this is, I heard recently from a Bonsai employee that the company has closed permanently, and that they laid off every single one of their employees this week. See what happens when you cut corners? And frankly, that’s the real reason I wanted to write this blog: I want you to know that you can trust us because we follow every regulation rigidly in our Durango dispensary, because we want you to smoke our boutique flower. We don’t want you to smoke mold, because, you guessed it, We’re Your Best Buds!

Are you old enough to be here?
