Your Green Wednesday Guide: Bag Up The Best Deals Now!

The verdict is still out on this one. There’s an ongoing debate within the community, as to why cannabis sales shoot up right before Thanksgiving. On our side, we can’t say for sure why this is an annual trend, but if you’re curious about the different opinions out there, here are some interesting theories:

• Holiday Stock-Up – Since most dispensaries close for the Thanksgiving weekend, it’s in a cannabis enthusiast’s best interest to have enough supply for the next few days.
• Holiday Stress – While we’re supposed to give thanks during this holiday season, family get-togethers also create a lot of drama and anxiety. According to a 2022 survey, 24% of participants consume cannabis throughout the holidays to enjoy them more.
• Cannabis Acceptance – As more states legalize, more people accept that cannabis is here to stay. Most surveys now find that two-thirds of Americans support recreational legalization.

Okay, look — we know your emails are probably already jammed, but hear us out. If a dispensary has a sale for Green Wednesday, their newsletter subscribers will be the first to know.

In other words, this is a great way to get ahead of the line and ensure you secure your holiday bag. Also, through a newsletter or loyalty program, you’ll be the first to know about promotions happening year-round.

Green Wednesday? More like Green Week! When people first hear about Green Wednesday, they assume it’s a one-day bargain experience. However, most dispensaries recognize this holiday’s popularity and promote deals all week.

Again, if you’re signed up for a newsletter or loyalty program, you’ll be the first to know about these. If you’re not part of a program, it may benefit you to stop by your local dispensary that Monday or Tuesday, and keep checking throughout the week — you never know.

Let’s be honest, holidays are already jam-packed with family commitments and activities. The last thing you need is to wait in line at a cannabis dispensary, just to get your weekly relief.

The best way to avoid this headache is by ordering online for in-store pickup or delivery.

Of course these options vary depending on your state’s regulation (i.e. some states don’t allow cannabis deliveries). However, this is the best way to secure a product before it sells out.
