First Time at a Michigan Dispensary? Here’s Exactly How It Works
A step-by-step walkthrough of your first visit to Cannabis Club New Buffalo — from the door to the deli counter to the register.

Walking into a dispensary for the first time can feel like walking into a members-only club. Good news: at Cannabis Club, everybody’s a member. Here’s the whole visit, start to finish.
1. The door
A staff member checks your ID — any valid government photo ID showing you’re 21+. That’s it. No paperwork, no card, no sign-in unless you want to join Club Rewards (you do — it’s free weed).
2. The floor
The store is laid out like a warehouse club: wide aisles, lit cases and everything grouped by category — flower, pre-rolls, vapes, edibles, concentrates, tinctures, topicals and accessories. Browse on your own or grab a budtender. There’s no wrong question; “what’s good and cheap today” is our favourite.
3. The deli wall
Our flower comes two ways: pre-packed jars and deli flower, which we weigh to order from the jar wall. Deli flower is sorted into six tiers — Reserve, Private, Great, Good, Value and Shake — with eighths from $5, and the top four tiers are on sale right now. Pick a strain, pick a weight (a gram, an eighth, an ounce), and watch it weighed in front of you.
4. The register
We take cash, debit and credit, and there’s an ATM on site. Every deal — Happy Hour, the day’s special, staple multi-buy prices, price match — is applied at the register, so tell us if you saw something on the deals page. Michigan adds a 10% excise tax plus 6% sales tax on adult-use purchases.
5. Skip the line entirely
Order on the live menu, pick “in-store” or “curbside” pickup, and we’ll text you when it’s bagged. Most orders are ready in minutes. Walk-ins never wait long either — that’s the whole point of the big floor.
A few tips from the crew
- New to edibles? Start with 2.5–5 mg and wait two hours before taking more.
- Vapes and concentrates hit faster and harder than flower — go slow.
- Keep everything sealed in the original packaging until you’re home.
- Never drive under the influence — it’s illegal and it’s dangerous.
