I was reluctant to visit any events during the pandemic.
I lost a few close loved ones to the illness and wasn’t ready to gamble with my life by going into high-risk situations with lots of people and countless opportunities for exposure.
Although the pandemic is far from over, I’m slowly becoming more comfortable with outdoor events as long as I still wear a mask. I don’t think I’m at the point yet where I would risk being at a packed concert, but the local farmer’s market and art shows are a nice break from being cooped up in a house for two years now. Best of all, my city actually hosted a cannabis event that was an expo for all of the marijuana businesses in my state. The cannabis dispensaries all had booths at the cannabis event and most of them were giving out discount cards and coupons that could be redeemed inside their stores around the state. After getting so many unique discount cards and coupons from the cannabis dispensary booths, I’ll be paying discount rates on weed products for the next three months at least. It’s amazing when you get a discount card that saves you 25% on an entire order up to $200. There was a different cannabis dispensary handing out coupons for $50 off an order of $300 or more. If you’re one of those people that likes to buy a ton of cannabis flower products, edibles, or concentrates all at once for weeks or months at a time, these bulk discounts are a game changer. However, it’s a lot harder for someone like me to justify spending that much money on marijuana every single month.
