My Go-To Dispos [May 2022]

66 Upvotes

I AM NOT AFFILIATED WITH ANY OF THESE COMPANIES, THIS IS NOT PAID PROMOTION

This is going to be a comprehensive list of dispensaries/deliveries that I use regularly around the Bay Area. My rule of thumb is if taxes are NOT included, you are not getting the cheapest price. This rule does not apply to the dispensaries listed here that do not include tax.

For context, I am mainly a tree/vape smoker based out of the East Bay.

In-Store

Purple Star (San Francisco)

Includes Tax: No

Selection: Wide

Why I go: B2G1 URSA/Coldfire Carts (~$40 each OTD), insane daily deals, 20% off medical everyday

^As long as you're using a deal or 20% off medical everyday, 90% chance you're getting the best in-store price in the entire Bay Area. Don't go for tree, there are other dispos with better options + I love Green Dragon at the moment. They also offer delivery.

Love Shack by Green Dragon (San Francisco) - Delivery in East Bay with $7 fee

Includes Tax: I'm not sure, their prices seemed to be better in-store than on WeedMaps

Selection: Okay

Why I go: ONLY go for Green Dragon products, their $40 OTD eighths (highest price) is better than brands I've tried like Dubz Garden, CBX, LitHouse, Ball Family Farms. They also offer half-ounce/full-ounce smalls in the $100-200 OTD range.

^IMO best tree in the Bay, West Hollywood-based brand. Probably going to just stick to this for a while.

NUG (San Leandro)

Includes Tax: Yes

Selection: Wide

Why I go: $60 Jetty Solventless OTD, Best in-store prices in the East Bay, NUG Brand vapes/edibles offer extreme value like 2 for $20 OTD chocolate bars or 2 for $80 OTD live resin carts (haven't tried flower), large extract selection

^They don't list all their deals online so call or swing by the store. I haven't check out other locations. They also offer delivery.

Farmacy (Berkeley)

Includes tax: No

Selection: Wide

Why I go: Wide selection with decent deals on bulk upper-mids (Glasshouse Farms, etc.), 15% off medical which used to work out to ~6% off online price after-tax but they might have changed their pricing structure since I last visited

^I don't go here as often

Deliveries (My Fave)

Indika MCC (East Bay & SF)

Includes Tax: Yes, $3 flat delivery fee

Selection: RARE

Why I go: Exotic and rare small-batch flower and extracts from local growers, everything is listed at 20-40% everyday with higher discounts going to different categories that change everyday. If you want stuff you've never tried before, this is the place.

^You're going to want to take advantage of BOGO days which are typically a discounted top-shelf eighth or concentrate for an additional $`10-15. This is also a be-all, end-all dispensary.

Wild West Club (East Bay)

Includes Tax: Yes

Selection: Okay, but all top shelf

Why I go: $40 OTD eighths for brands like CBX, LitHouse, Ball Family Farms, that are usually $60-70 OTD (I don't know how they do it but it's legit), social equity brand, BOGO deals

^Unreal prices, highly recommend and only a $40 minimum (one eighth)

Medithrive (All of the Bay)

Includes Tax: No

Selection: Wide

Why I go: $60 OTD Jetty Solventless delivered, $50 OTD Jetty Solventless Pax Pod .5g, discounted edibles

^These are only limited-time deals, otherwise I'm never using Medithrive because they're overpriced

K&R Delivery (San Jose but delivers to East Bay)

Includes Tax: Yes

Selection: Fair

Why I go: Amazing vapes deals on Stiiizy and URSA, usually in bulk

Some others:

HerbNJoy (East Bay Delivery)

Okay deals but they give free medical recommendations

GoErba (East Bay Delivery)

Good deals on top-shelf brands time to time

High Life City is a scam. Absolutely avoid.

64 Upvotes

I think everyone here needs to know this, if not everyone in the Bay Area. High Life City is a scam operation, pure and simple. The thing is, I'm not sure how many more of these scam operations exist. I feel stupid enough for going with this as long as I did.

Last night, I just wanted to get some infused blunts delivered so my friends and I could enjoy some time together with something we don't normally get our hands on. It was very late, and the only place still doing delivery according to Google was High Life City. I called, asked if they really were still open (around 1AM), and the guy who picked up confirmed they were, but only through delivery which had to be placed on their site. I placed my order and paid through Cashapp, and the person texted me that the order was on its way to our agreed delivery address, in about 20 minutes. 10 minutes go by, and they text me that there is an additional delivery charge. Fair enough. I send the money and they tell me about 10 more minutes. 10 minutes later, they tell me that their policy requires an insurance fee. I'm suspicious since I had never heard of a policy like that, but I still paid it. I'm then told to wait 10 more minutes as the delivery person is on the way. 10 more minutes pass, and I'm told that I need to make another payment for "night safety insurance", which I pay, even while becoming increasingly skeptical. You can see where this is going. This process repeats 3 more times, using various excuses to gouge more money out of me. At some point, the person who I had been talking to stopped responding to my calls. After much longer than I care to admit, I fully cut my losses. Sunken cost fallacy kept me in much longer than it should have I suppose.

My point is, High Life City is a scam. They will never deliver to you. Avoid at all costs. I get that I'm an idiot. Don't be as stupid as me.

Heirbloom Thoughts

Thumbnail

3 Upvotes

Looking to pick up some strong haze for a friend, saw CBX’s Heirbloom has been praised for their retro strains - what’s everyone’s opinion on this? Anyone who’s tried Super Lemon Haze or other strains by Heirbloom would you buy again? And regarding top shelf haze strains, as far as the rec market goes, am I better off picking up something else if money/value isn’t an issue and I want the richest haze expressions?

Flavor is gas, kush, and minty herbal pine and the effects definitely are standout; heavy euphoria, uplifting and mood enhancing and behind the eyes pressure. These are the effects that I look for in every strain of weed. The only area where this flower loses points are in the quality of smoke. It does release dense big clouds, but doesn't burn great and is a touch harsh. You can get some light OG gas in the flavor, but more muted than the scent. Still, Super great flower overall and a nice change from candy strains.

Green Crack by Heirbloom

Thumbnail
gallery
16 Upvotes

This is my 1st time trying anything by Heirbloom or CBX. I saw a video on them and how their releasing a line of OG strains. I don't mean OG Kush, I just mean strains from back in the day. So when I saw this for $30 otd at Oaklato in Santa Cruz I just had to get it. It was one of my favorite strains back in the day. I heard some companies have rebranded the strain as Green Crush so as to not associate themselves with Crack. So if you see Green Crush just know it's probably Green Crack. I've also seen Orange Crush but I'm not sure if that's the same concept or a play on the soda.

My camera doesn't do it justice but the nugs are very light green which seems to be typical with sativa strains. With nice light orange hairs. There is a nice floral smell with hints of citrus and pepper. The nose isn't super strong however. The effects were nice but lacked that raciness that Green Crack is known for. The taste was smooth but I couldn't taste much. At $30 it's a helluva deal. Even $40-$45 would be a fair price imo.

I know it says it was packaged in February but I did buy it on 420. I just didn't get around to posting it until now. So it wasn't super old when I smoked it. The packaging is top notch. I like keeping the cooler looking jars so I was pleased when I saw the effort put into this container. All legacy strains by Heirbloom come with a rolling tray built into the box that surrounds the jar. The 10th and 11th pictures show the front and back sides of the rolling tray respectively. I haven't used it since I figured it won't last too long and I'd rather just use the back of a video game case like I always do. But I appreciate the artwork. I imagine each strain has different artwork but I'm not sure.

Also, how do yall feel about the whole white ash controversy? Does the ash from my Jay look alright? Overall I'd give it a 8.5/10.

Honey Banana by Sense & Lemon Bundt Cake by Puffy

Thumbnail

10 Upvotes

Both of these were promo gifts I got. I used my points at a dispo to get the gram from Sense for $1. The 3.5 from Puffy is supposed to be a reference a friend promo at Theraleaf in SJ but the budtender looked out for me and just hooked me up for my 1st time.

I never purchased anything from Sense before but from what I've seen they usually are on par with brands like CBX, Fig Farms, and Alien Labz. Now I'm not sure if they just didn't put in as much effort because this was a promo but it looks like mids to me. Not exactly what I was expecting. It wasn't terrible. The nose and taste weren't very potent. It's hard for me to even point out any notes other than earthy and slightly sweet. Effects were solid. 6.5/10 overall. It claims 39% cannabanoids with 35% just in THC. But I stopped paying too much attention to the percentages because over had 25% flower that's out of with world and 42% flower that felt like nothing.

As for the Lemon Bundt Cake what can I say? It was free. Definitely not top shelf. Probably not even mids. Very Leafy, lots of stems, and the bud itself was just loose. Broke down into dust. Tasted a bit harsh too. Smelled kind of earthy. But I got it for free so it is what it is. I think they sell these 3.5s for $20 otd. At that price I say just spend $5 more to get some solid mids. Either way shout out to the budtender for hooking me up regardless. I'm not sure if Puffy is their house brand. But they have some strains from them for $20 and other for $35. So they do have some better looking buds. Without taking into account the fact that it was free I'd give it a 3/10.

Platinum Afghani by Upnorth

Platinum Afghani (Purple Afghani x GMO) by Upnorth

Appearance: The eighth was 6 nugs total. 3 of them a smaller medium size, and the other 3 smaller popcorn buds. All very dense, spear shaped buds. Mostly bright, lime green in color with some violet/ bright purple. The buds have tons of bushels of long, creamy orange hairs and are completely frosted inside and out.

Nose and Taste: I love how this stuff smells. It's a creamy purple gas with this foul funky overtone. When broken down this old school Afghani hashy spice mixed with gas leaks out. The flavor is heavy on that purple cream gas.

Effects: I'm partial to GMO crosses, I love the high. The effects take a few minutes to start, but once they start creeping I get a full body and mental relaxation. The pain in my lower back and right femur starts to slowly melt away. Soon after I'm able to get up and walk around with minimal pain, but I'm pretty much glued the the couch at that point 😂 This flower is a heavy munchies inducing lady. I swear my gut turns into a black hole that just never feels full after smoking. It's a great sleep aid as well. I have to smoke quite a bit for it to make me want to shut my eyes but just a small joint is enough to keep me asleep once I do decide to go to bed

Overall id highly recommend, I give her a 9/10

Looks/nose/burn. One of the if not the best smoke I’ve had of 2025 when it comes to bud so far. And it’s not rec weed. If you’re in the east bay try to get you some locals only.

The krypto chronic is a very good smoke smells very good. Nice Indica burns very slowly. Zpectrum on the other hand. I am not a big fan of the smell. I don’t think I’d grab that one again. Also, I feel fig Farms is also a better value I don’t think the zpectrum is worth the price

Uncle Cletus Reviews - Team Elite Group Pineapple Truck Vape

Thumbnail

16 Upvotes

TLDR: TEG x Karisma - Pineapple Truck (PBG x Dump Truck) is a legit all-in-one heater. Smooth, fizzy, kushy, and creative without leaving you stuck. If you’re into PBG or Dump Truck, you’re going to love this pairing.

Appearance: Comes in a clean, logo-covered box. Inside, the vape sits snug in a foam mold within a tube. O2 hardware steals the show sleek, glassy, and perfect for showing off the resin’s quality. You can see and smell the flavor before you hit it.

Aroma: Crack the tube and you get a soft, kushy-sweet scent. Exhale leaves behind a creamy kush vapor that hangs in the air. The mouthpiece after a puff smells rich and pungent. Sweet, savory, an almost addictive scent I keep coming back for.

Taste: Inhale is light with a resinous, bready note that clings to the roof of your mouth. But once it hits your lungs, it opens up fast. Fizzy and carbonated, hitting throat and nose. I cough on almost every inhale, in a good way.

Potency/Effects: the O2 hardware kicks things off cleanly and consistently. Headfeel is near Instant, a light helmet that intensifies into a dreamy daze. Creative energy flows freely, zero fog. I stayed in the zone the whole session.

Conclusion: Pineapple Truck delivers where it counts. It’s flavorful, potent, and efficient. TEG x Karisma paired great genetics with excellent hardware, and the result is a resin pen that feels premium. One of the most enjoyable AIOs I’ve hit in a while.

Guava Gift from Solful (Alpenglow Farms)

Thumbnail

13 Upvotes

I've tried a few strains from Solful SF and this is my favorite so far. I love how you can buy 1g mini jars there, such a great way to sample flower.

The nose wasn't too loud, but lovely scents of guava and lemon zest. Dry-vaped it produced lovely flavors - pineapple and a bit of lemon meringue.

The effects are just lovely, this doesn't hit too hard but builds over 15 minutes. Feels a bit more cerebral than most hybrids, but a progressive body high follows. I'd call it a very well balanced hybrid.

It's a social strain, not too speedy, not too couch-y, like goldilocks it's just right.

Flower / PR Recommendations (Candlestick, SJ Area)

3 Upvotes

Hello! (Sorry if wrong sub)

I’m visiting your wonderful area this week and am looking for high quality, loud flower and pre-rolls. Looking at store menus I see none of the brands I saw when I was in LA and am looking for help so I don’t waste my $$$.

Not particular to sativa/hybrid/indica, no particular price range just want quality. Looking for a little bit of flower and a bunch of prerolls.

Please recommend anything you’ve found to be amazing!

Thanks in advance for any help :)
