Star Buds - Kirkland

9/28/2015
I first started coming here shortly after launch. The selection was sparse at the beginning, but quickly expanded and diversified. I was driving ~25 minutes to buy, and that's now ~15. There is a closer store to me but prices are >50% higher and don't include sales tax. The price listed on the product should be the price out the door, like it is at Mary Jane. Elsewhere that seems more often to be the exception than the rule. But even if sales tax was not factored in, the prices at Mary Jane would still be the best around. They've eeked up a smidge and the happy hour deals are not as good as they were at launch, but things like $5/g or $15/2g were presumably done at a loss to introduce themselves to the area and establish a new clientele. It got me in the door! I expect those type of deals will return as the market evolves. That said, their happy hours are much longer and accessible; their deals are always listed online so you don't have to call or wander in to see. They update their menu daily, often several times per day. Vaping cartridges don't last long for me compared to flower, so I'll wait for those prices to come down, but the prices here got me off the fence to give it a try. I haven't tried any other concentrates yet here. They are toeing the line of the law here; don't come asking for medical advice, that's illegal for i-502 stores. Ask for a CBD strain or whether indica or sativa is better for sleeping. Don't ask "What will cure my insomnia?" They'll check your ID every time, even when they recognize your face and remember your name. Step out the door to answer that phone call? You'll have to show your ID again, that's just them following the law. These little details are reassuring. Thanks Mary Jane! I'm done with the black market, because, sure, I could get it a little cheaper, but I'm no longer taking the chance of being committed to a half ounce of meh of unknown origin. I get to try a little of everything, and I know much more about how, when, and where it was harvested.
