Buying legal marijuana for the first time can be a fun and liberating experience. But if it is your first time you must know that it is not like buying alcohol. It is still enforced. . I am writing this for the novice buying legal marijuana. For the first timers or for kids 21 and over who haven't been smoking long or the older who haven't smoked in 40 years...there are things the average tourist should know... You CANNOT get in WITHOUT a picture I.D. You will be turned away. And your i.d. must be current. You will be turned away if it is not current. Don't be alarmed or paranoid about the I.D. process. And older people who look way way way over 21 do not assume it is about how old you look. That will always work in a liquor store or bar but it doesn't work here. Once again this stuff is regulated. DO NOT tell the budtender you are buying this for your friend's stocking stuffer or for your sick grandmother. It is against the law to suggest you are buying for someone else. (Even if that someone else is over 21.) DO NOT ASK the budtender how you can get an edible, gram, ounce or cbd on a plane. Marijuana CAN NOT be taken on the plane with you back home! IT IS ILLEGAL! It doesn't matter if you are going back to another state where it is legal. It is regulated to it's own state. DO NOT TRY THIS! Also do not ask if the Dispensary has a website where they can send marijuana products edibles grams, ounces, etc.? This is also ILLEGAL. This can also get you turned away from a Dispensary if you are not careful. If you are looking for a certain product DO NOT bring a near empty one into a Dispensary. It is also ILLEGAL. Write it down or show the budtender a picture but do not bring it into a Dispensary. It is like bringing an open bottle of Jack Daniels into a liquor store. It is ILLEGAL! Follow these guidelines and let's keep marijuana legal. And remember it will all be worth when you get back to where ever you are staying to enjoy your lift or glued to couch high. But overall have fun buying it. Think of it as an adventure! Be nice to your budtender. You would be surprised how many sad and uptight people budtenders sometimes meet in a week. -anonymous Budtender in Colorado, 2017
