Here’s a key quote from the press release:
“Marijuana is used in the treatment of several conditions, including glaucoma, cancer, and multiple sclerosis,” said Walgreens spokesperson Calvin Broadus. “Walgreens will offer an industry-leading consumer experience and the widest selection of primo strains, including such top sellers as Black Rhino OG Kush and Strawberry Cough. While our competitors are abandoning smokers, we remain proudly at the Corner of Happy and Hacking®.”Beginning with locations in Washington and Colorado, Walgreens will launch a new "High Experience" retail store format. Each store will feature a special Weed Corner™, a dedicated space where consumers can attend education events and purchase everything they need for a cannabis-based lifestyle. The press release mentions such items as rolling papers, lighters, Doritos, Hacky Sacks, Funyons, and the Grateful Dead’s seminal 1970 album, “American Beauty.”
The new store format will also sell OTC products from Alliance Boots’ private label brand, including Formula No. 420 Redness Relief Eye Drops.
Walgreens promises “Friendly Service and Expert Advice” and consultations with board-certified dealers who will diagnose and treat families' everyday ganja needs. These dealers can even write prescriptions if needed for things like bachelor parties, Phish concerts, or like, whatever, dude.
