Reply to comment by adam_west_ in Can someone explain what is taking CT so long to have retail cannabis sales? by MusicMan99112

Not just generating revenue for their states, they are getting a lot of it from CT residents. I go up to Mass once a month and drop a couple hundred bucks that could easily be going to a local CT shop. Multiply that by the few thousand people who do the same thing and CT is missing out on a lot of potential income from marijuana sales.

I know. On a recent trip to a mass dispensary CT cars outnumbered other state license plates …

We spend that a week in MA. We don't mind because we make a family trip out of it. Too bad the state can't get their shit together though. Just us alone is easily over $1200/month after taxes.

If your spending that kind of money look into driving out to Western NY to the native american stores where ounces are like $60 with no taxes or fees.

Apparently not. Been trying but people haven't had the quality we want. We also like variety. Concentrate is a must as well.

We did have a connect for a minute but she's too bat shit to deal with anymore. She was okay quality at a decent price. Mainly she always had variety and consistent and that's what kept us dealing with her nonsense. We are open to more local peeps and prefer it. We just don't want stupid bullshit drama with it.
