Who said they would be "thrilled"? n/t Mr.Bill Dec 2019 #5
Why would it be an "opportunity"? That implies it would be something special to them. nt pnwmom Dec 2019 #17
Wow. Some response. The Valley Below Dec 2019 #8
I read your post, and answered it, but you still haven't answered mine. pnwmom Dec 2019 #13

I agree no legal dispensary should sell to anyone under 18 JonLP24 Dec 2019 #43
