Some people enjoy visiting a new dispensary every time they need cannabis products. They enjoy seeing what's new and exploring new places, and they like every visit to feel novel. Other people prefer to visit the same place every time. They want a certain dispensary to become their go-to so that they can get to know the budtenders, stay abreast of new products and deals, and come to know what to expect from each visit. If you fall into the second camp and want to make one dispensary your go-to, then here are some things to consider as you work on choosing that go-to dispensary.

Location

Since this is a dispensary you'll be visiting again and again, you want it to be convenient for you to visit. This does not necessarily mean you should choose the dispensary closest to your home. You may want to find one that's on your way home from work or close to your gym so that you can stop by when you're already out and about for other reasons. 

Budtender Service

When you're visiting various dispensaries to find your go-to, pay attention to the service the various budtenders offer. Is there a certain dispensary where the budtenders seem more familiar with your particular cannabis needs? For instance, if you use your cannabis to manage cancer medication side effects, and at one dispensary, the budtender is very well-versed in cancer care, that dispensary may be your best bet.

Strain Selections

Some dispensaries grow their proprietary strains. Others stock "big name" strains grown by outside companies. Both approaches have their pros and cons, but overall, you just want to make sure you like the selection of strains a place offers. If one dispensary has a lot of low-THC sativas but you prefer strong indicas, then this dispensary won't be your ideal go-to spot, even though it may be the perfect choice for someone else. You want to choose a dispensary that has lots of products you're looking forward to trying over time, not one that offers just one or two products you'll buy again and again. After all, exploring different products is part of the fun with cannabis.

There are lots of great dispensaries out there, and they all deserve to be someone's go-to spot. The secret doesn't lie in finding a great dispensary, but instead in finding one that's great for you.
