When the Weed Deals Are the Hottest
These are the most common times for hot deals:
- 4/20: Of course, dispensaries and other cannabis companies love to offer irresistible deals on 4/20 because, well, it’s our day!
- Black Friday: Just like every other brand on earth, cannabis brands will also offer stellar discounts and promotions the day after Thanksgiving.
- Cyber Monday: The same goes for Cyber Monday — like most companies, cannabis brands will give you online deals.
- Green Wednesday: One of the newer Thanksgiving-centric shopping days is Green Wednesday, aka the day before Thanksgiving. Cannabis companies are discounting products so folks can stock up for Thanksgiving, and it’s become its own holiday.
- Other Holidays: Also look for promotions around holidays like the Fourth of July, Labor Day, Memorial Day, St. Patrick’s Day, Valentine’s Day, and more.
The Best Types of Deals to Look For
When trying to save money, we recommend looking out for these kinds of deals.
Coupons and Promo Codes
This is one of the most obvious types of weed deals and also one of the best. Coupons and promo codes are a major way for cannabis brands to get customers in the door, so they’re often the ones throwing them at you (in a good way). Make sure you save every coupon they give you and take advantage of everyone you see, whether on their website, in a newsletter, or through social media channels. Many dispensaries and cannabis brands offer limited-time promotions or exclusive deals for new and returning customers.
BOGOs
Not everyone appreciates a good BOGO deal because it means you have to pay full price for one product. But hey, would you rather pay full price and get no freebies? We like the freebies, so we always jump at BOGO or BOGO half-off deals, and we suggest you do the same. After all, some BOGOs are as juicy as a free ounce of marijuana flower!
Free Delivery/Shipping
This is another deal people don’t always appreciate. However, the delivery cost of cannabis products can be seriously expensive. Free delivery or shipping can mean saving as much as $20-$30 on a single order. This is an especially enticing deal if you weren’t planning on ordering a ton of products.
Limited-Time Promotions
Limited-time promotions, like weekend sales, the aforementioned holiday sales, or grand opening promotions, can offer massive savings on cannabis products. Don’t miss out on one of these promotions because you don’t need to pick them up until next week or don’t usually go to that dispensary. Hop on these kinds of promotions whenever you see one, and you can rack up your savings.
Built-In Discounts
Last but certainly not least, don’t forget about the built-in discounts. Just because there isn’t a giant neon sign pointing at a product, that doesn’t mean there isn’t a discount right in front of you. Both in-store and online, make sure to look at listed prices to see if any have been slashed.
More Tips for Saving as Much as Possible
But wait, we have more ways to save! Here are some more tips for finding deals, discounts, and savings.
Shop Online and In-Store
If you only shop online, consider going to the dispensary next time. If you only buy at dispensaries, try shopping online. Some places offer the best discounts for in-person purchases, while other companies like to reward their online shoppers. By giving both a try, you can discover the best ways to save at various cannabis brands.
Join Email Lists
Do you know when you go to a website, they ask for your email? Or when the person ringing you up asks for your email? We know you probably don’t want to give it up, but it can help you save money. When you join those email lists, cannabis brands will often send you special coupons, discounts, and promotion alerts. These can even be curated for you and your purchasing habits.
Subscribe and Save
If you’re buying a product that you know you use regularly, why not subscribe and save? When you sign up for a recurring subscription, you can often save on every single order. For example, Find Wunder offers 10 to 15% off if you subscribe for regular deliveries. In most cases, you can cancel anytime, so there’s no real commitment.
Order in Bulk
We love a bulk order. At many dispensaries and other cannabis companies, the more you buy, the more you save. Instead of getting a quarter ounce of your favorite strain, get an ounce and pay 20% less per gram. Instead of buying four THC drinks, buy 12 and save more than 15%. You get the picture. If you know this is something you buy often, just stock up, and you’ll spend less.
Join Reward Programs
Loyalty pays off, so if you have a dispensary or cannabis brand you love, see if they have a rewards program or loyalty program. With these, you can often rack up points to be later used to make purchases. Frankly, you don’t even have to be very loyal to use these programs. You can sign up at ten different dispensaries and save money all around town.
Use Filters/Sort By
When you’re shopping online, check the “Sort By” and search filter options. Sometimes, you can sort products by discounts, deals, prices, promotions, and more. This will help you quickly find the very best savings and get exactly what you’re looking for.
Be Loyal to a Dispensary
This one isn’t an official way to save money, but sometimes it works. We mentioned joining the royalty programs, but some dispensaries or cannabis brands, especially smaller ones, may genuinely reward you for being a long-term, frequent customer. Be friendly with your budtender, and it might lead to serious savings!
Cannabis Brands With the Best Weed Deals
These are a few cannabis companies that offer amazing savings opportunities!
Find Wunder: As mentioned, Find Wunder loves to reward its customers. You take advantage of Subscribe and Save and/or join their points program!
Cookies: Cookies is one of the biggest cannabis brands around, and one of the reasons they’re so popular is they constantly offer coupons and run exciting weed deals.
Pax: Pax tends to have stellar holiday deals, so be sure to check their site whenever a major holiday or one of the stoner holidays rolls around.
Eaze: Eaze loves to offer customers free shipping, discounted shipping, and other deals when you order from their site.
Affordable Brands Worth Mentioning
These brands don’t necessarily have hot weed deals and discounts, but they are very affordable. If you’re looking for brands that won’t break the bank, these are great options:
- Hyperwolf
- St. Ide’s
- Punch Edibles
There might not be promos and rewards, but the prices are so good you’ll feel like you’re getting a stellar dal, and you are!
Products You Can Frequently Save On
How much you save can also depend on what you buy. These products are the most frequently discounted items.
Flower
When it comes to deals, marijuana flower is the top product. Dispensaries constantly run promotions and offer hefty discounts on their flower product for many reasons. First of all, even when stored well, flower will lose its quality over time, so it’s important they sell their flower sooner rather than later. Second of all, flower is one of the most popular products and one of the most profitable. Offering discounts and deals on flower increases sales and profits. If you love shopping deals, flower should be your go-to.
Concentrates
You can also find excellent on dabs, distillates, wax, resin, and rosin. These products are all different, but we can also put them in the same category — concentrates. The products are all made from cannabis flower that has been cured and concentrated in some way. They can be consumed through vapes, dab rigs, and many, many other ways. Just like flower, these items go on sale a lot simply because they’re popular, so always try to get a discount when shopping for these.
Accessories
Cannabis accessories also go on sale frequently. Many brands will offer free accessories with a product purchase. Score savings on vape batteries, pipes, bowls, bongs, flower jars, lighters, rolling papers, ashtrays, and more. We know these products don’t contain cannabis, but it’s still awesome to find top-notch discounts (or even freebies) on the accessories you need or want to enjoy your cannabis of choice.
