First Time at a Dispensary? Here’s What to Expect

Walking into a dispensary for the first time can feel exciting—and a little intimidating. Whether you’re curious about cannabis or ready to try a new product, we’re here to help make your first time dispensary visit smooth, welcoming, and informed.

What Should I Bring?

To shop at any dispensary in Michigan, you’ll need:

• A valid government-issued photo ID
  
• Proof that you are 21 years or older
  
• (Optional) A medical cannabis card if you’re a patient
  

No appointment is necessary—just walk in and check in at the front desk.

What Questions Should I Be Ready to Answer?

Once inside, a budtender will greet you and may ask:

• Is this your first time using cannabis?
  
• Are you looking for relaxation, focus, pain relief, or something else?
  
• Do you prefer to smoke, eat, or apply cannabis?
  

These questions help them match you with the right product and dosage.

What Kinds of Products Can I Buy?

At Pegasus Michigan, you’ll find a wide variety of lab-tested, high-quality products, including:

• Flower (Indica, Sativa, Hybrid)
  
• Pre-rolls
  
• Edibles (gummies, chocolates, drinks)
  
• Vapes and cartridges
  
• Concentrates
  
• Topicals and tinctures
  

If you’re new, start low and go slow—your budtender can recommend beginner-friendly products.

How Do I Pay?

Most dispensaries operate in cash, but many—including Pegasus—also accept debit cards and have ATMs available on-site. Credit cards are not accepted due to federal banking regulations.

How Much Can I Buy?

Michigan state law allows you to purchase:

• Up to 2.5 ounces of cannabis flower
  
• Up to 15 grams of concentrates
  

Your budtender will help you stay within legal limits and explain how to store and use your products safely.

Can I Smell or Sample Products?

You can view and smell certain products (like flower) through display jars, but no cannabis can be consumed on-site. All purchases are sealed in exit bags for safety and compliance.

Final Tips for First-Time Shoppers

• Don’t be afraid to ask questions. Budtenders are there to help.
  
• You’re not expected to know everything—we love educating first-timers!
  
• If unsure, start with a mild edible or low-THC vape.
  
• Store products safely, especially if you have kids or pets at home.
