The first trip to a cannabis dispensary feels bigger than it is. You’re walking into something that was illegal a decade ago, in a state that still operates under federal rules where it isn’t, and the whole experience has a “what do I do, where do I stand” quality to it.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t

Here’s the honest version: a Massachusetts dispensary visit takes about 15 minutes, the staff is genuinely there to help you (it’s literally the job), and there are exactly three things you need before you walk in. We’ll walk through everything else step by step: what’s on the menu, how to talk to a budtender, how the payment works (and why no credit cards), and what to do once you get home. By the time you’re done, the only thing left is to come visit.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t
