It was nice to talk to somebody who had knowledge about everything because I am one of those rare people who doesn't actually know what I'm looking for when I walk in the door of those places. Walked out with a pretty good deal. I would definitely come back here!

Which is another lie bcuz many times I've been there, employees had forgotten to add my points and than did it right there. I said to him I've been coming to this store for over ten yrs and never had a problem. Also they have a program at this store that asks u to put your phone number and try your luck, well in over ten yrs, it never happened, and none of my friends also never got chosen, so it's just another lie to keep ppl coming. He also decided to not care if u have been a faithful cust even going out of your way with plenty of stores by me, but always choosing to buy there.now the new employee who's been there 3 mos, decided to be very rude to me saying either buy ur stuff and leave, or just leave the store. Even though I was not directing my disappointment at her, she took his lies, and I was the one treat like shit. Well my friends as an over 10 yrs cust I advise u to not go to this store, cause the owner will lie right to your face and worse treat really bad even when u tell him you've been a faithful cust for yrs. Bcuz of me over 65 friends of mine use that store, which I have sent a group email letting them know to use another store.. I also met ppl at the store who knew nothing about Kratom and I put upon myself to educate them and they left there with the product, I did it just over the fact I thought the store deserve it. But never again will I step foot at a SmokeBucks on 9475 Phillips hwy, I will ask at other stores if the owner is a different one and also advise all my friends. Trust me save yourself the upsetting time and the trouble and skip this store.

I've had my fair share of dealing with shop owners who sell fake/counterfeit product (do NOT buy if you've not scanned the code at purchase. I've made the mistake of being too trusty/too much in a haste and I pay for it. This place has sold legitimate product to me every single time I've been in. Check out the attached pic (it was me checking the number the one time), bought a Lost Mary disposable- aside from the great flavor of it, Lost Mary's own site confirmed its authenticity. The staff have always been adequately/fairly friendly as well.

I'd rather discuss issues with the business directly. In this case, this review is a warning DO NOT SHOP AT THIS BUSINESS. They will put profits above the safety of their customers. A few days ago (January 10th 2025) I bought some mushroom gummies from Exotic Smoke as gifts for friends. The gummies were marked half off so it seemed like a good deal. I did not know that the company that made the gummies shut down and the gummies were recalled in October 2024 for making people sick with several hospitalizations associated with them (https://www.cdc.gov/environmental-health-studies/outbreak-investigation-diamond-shruumz-products/index.html). Luckily for me, before anyone took any, one of my friends checked the QR code on the back of the bag and saw that it linked to a dead webpage (http://diamondshruumz.com). When they googled the company name they learned about the recall in the link above. Selling these potentially dangerous gummies at half off is despicable, but the fact that it rang up as "custom item" on the receipt is evidence that they knew full well what they were doing by leaving that wiggle room of plausible deniability. The recall had been issued for at least two and a half months - this product should have been pulled from the shelves and tossed in the trash so NO ONE was put at risk. You should be able to trust the shops you buy from not to KNOWINGLY sell you tainted product. There are tons of other stores in town - shop somewhere that doesn't put profit ahead of your safety. If you MUST shop at Exotic Smoke, RESEARCH THE PRODUCT before giving them any money.
