I've also heard that chewing countertop peppercorns can relieve anxiety/paranoia as well.

Seeing a few reports of people getting underweighed, overdried, mouldy and bottom-bag weed

Only people that are gonna grab this shit are the new tokers or those curious like me.

Overpriced foe what you get.

I'm glad I stocked up before lol

So after inspecting my goods I noticed they have dates on there indicating when they were packed.

The freshest was Sept 26 followed by August 21, and the oldest was packed on June 22.

Opened the oldest one first since it's the oldest plus that one I just got 1 gram so I'll just destroy it tomorrow and move to the next. Bud looks aight, not dried, moudy, bottom of the bag etc

Here's a pic, it was the Kinky Kush

i imagine once retail stores open up we may see 1 ounce sales to move product for a fresher batch coming in,even if it was dry,add one of these in there and you're golden.

So you consider that mediocre bud? Looks a fuck of a lot better than ANYTHING I ever got in my pot smoking days of the late 90's

These are really good if you use the right one. Throw a few in a jar and ur good to go ! Keeps herb fresher longer.

I feel like the stores/websites will have better prices/quality in like 2 years if it's anything like Colorado. Hopefully less time lol

What can I say, I've been spoiled here in Van especially since dispenseries starting showing up like 6 or 7 years ago or whenever now.

I’d say in general the way buds look isn’t an indicator of quality anymore.

I’ve bought shit fairly consistently from Cannaclinic etc that looks like it should be on the cover of high times and turns out to be medicorce at best.

In my experience the best indicators of good weed are super smelly, super sticky buds

Anyone planning to, or have already, deliver the shipment to their office?
I usually get all my shipments delivered to work, but I'm a bit more cautious in signalling my weed smoking ways. Would the reception need me to come down and show ID, or would they just let it be signed the same way as other registered mail?

I would do that but my bosses are pretty laid back, probably get their weed sent to the office as well.

I'm the same way and not sure if I will get it delivered to my office. It is small tho so next time I may try it.

Just received the email that my order shipped for an expected delivery on Monday.

Box is hella discreet. Only way you can tell is the address says BCCS

Some of my buddies got the email/pack slip saying same day pick up @post office if they missed delivery I had to wait the next day but will report back in a bit so stoked lol

The boxes have no indication of weed inside it. However they are all packaged the same - a brown box with the label and red security tape sealing it.
A receptionist will eventually figure it out based on how the box looks and know who is purchasing.

Best thing to do is sign up for the Flex delivery and have it delivered to the post office for pickup so you don't have to wait an extra day to pickup if you aren't home to sign for it.

My primary concern is the ID-check. Am I going to have to be there to show my card, or does it come in like other stuff from CP that needs a signature; in which case, the receptionist will just sign whatever.

I believe the official guidelines are 19+ Signature required. ID if you look under 25.
So receptionist should be able to sign for anyone

OTTAWA (NEWS 1130) – If you are one of the many Canadians who are buying legal marijuana, a federal watchdog says you may want to think about your privacy.

The federal privacy commissioner’s office is cautioning cannabis users that if they buy pot with a credit or debit card, that data may be stored in a different country and will be subject to that country’s laws.

With the U.S., authorities can easily access your purchase history.

Just consuming cannabis could be grounds to bar you from the U.S. The commissioner’s office recommends removing pictures or proof of pot purchases from your phone before crossing the border, but warns never to lie to border officers.

If you live in a province with private sales, stores may still collect information like your name, address, and credit card number. While companies have a duty to safeguard that info, in our digital age, it could be at risk or shared with a third party.
use your CDN credit card just in case.

opened up all my stuff and overall Im pretty dissapointed but sorta figured I would be lol.

started with the most expensive $14 a G super skunk which was underweighed, filled with stems, leafs and felt pretty dried. will post full photos and reviews tommorow

^^Definitely another fear of mine in this now federally legal marketplace.

Discretion is everything to me and knowing that purchases are tracked and logged, which of course they are, is pretty discouraging. And then getting inferior product which wasn't weighed or trimmed or chosen properly just tells me to stick with off the books purchases.
