Magnolia Road Cannabis Co. Boulder (REC)

This is the place you want to squanch your squanch if you know what's schwifty.
This place does a brisk business because of its awesome (and I mean awesome) prices (also a hub for picking up online orders which I didn't even know were a thing) but in spite of the place being jammed, the staff go out of their way to make you feel appreciated as a customer. Cody gave me 10% off my order, which was already very reasonably priced, just because. Well I should clarify: apparently they have some kind of special going on where they were giving people 10% off if they wrote a review; Cody gave me this in advance (incidentally, the closest I've come to getting an advance on writing ANYTHING in my 16 year career as a professional writer) and giving someone a discount based on the nodded acquiescence that they'll maybe post a review online is essentially giving them it just because, which is nice.
The entry space/waiting room did feel notably cramped, as the business does not have quite enough real estate to deal with the demand, and they've chosen to invest the vast majority of the real estate they do have in the room where the bud itself is on display. This is either a good or a bad thing depending on how many people are in line ahead of you, I suppose. Once you are inside there's an immediate sense of camaraderie and an impression you are among kindred spirits. When I see someone is wearing a Rick & Morty T-Shirt, I immediately know that I can talk to them comfortably, about weed or nearly anything else.
I am visiting the Red Headed Stranger as I write this and I can safely say the bud on sale certainly does the job. Jesus is this the longest shop review anyone has ever made on Leafly dot com? I could have probably gotten away with 50 words easily and it would still have been on the long side. How many words did I just type? I'm stoned.
