He doesn't speak unless spoken to. And when he does speak it's barely a whisper. No flavored disposable vapes and if you do get one, it may not even work. I spent $20 on a Hustler Cuban vape and it won't turn on or charge. Skip this place. Not worth your time or your money. If the guy behind the counter eventually turned up on a story on Dateline, I would not be surprised.

I'm not up to snuff (pardon the pun) with smoking or anything related to utilizing medicinal marijuana & its paraphernalia so Hubby does the search & I'm along for the ride. There's only so much that narcotics & scheduled drugs could do to alleviate in oncologic-related pain. Her oncologist has recommended it heavily to try other means to aide in managing her pain & increasing her appetite. I've noticed & she said the last one we had her try wasn't effective. For comfort & ease of taking in the weed, Hubby bought her a bong. I'm sure it beats the heck out of smoking it lol. I trust it's better consumed in this manner. For a small shop, it does offer a pretty extensive selection of bongs. I didn't get to browse too long so I quickly just took the photos & Hubby bought the bong for auntie--we were done in a jiffy! The gentleman at the counter was pretty mild mannered & fairly helpful. Hubby found this shop on Google, it had the best reviews & he said if he were to purchase it in the greater LA area, it would've cost him $200, he bought it for $35--thats a great deal!!! Let's hope this works out better for my auntie. I feel pretty helpless when she assumes the fetal position when she's in pain, it's heartbreaking.

I asked the price of the item I needed and they were hellbent on not giving me a price just that they have it in store and aren't "allowed" to give prices which is just weird because this has been THE ONLY store that's never told me a price. Even my legal weed shop will tell me prices plus how much it would be after tax. Weird won't be shopping anymore if I can't get a simple answer to a damn question.

I wish I got his name to give him credit but it was today 6/23/26 around 11am.

And I found Elijah Craig barrel proof A125. Such a great find! 1 is for January and 25 is the year. Aged around 10 years. The STAR of the haul no doubt is the Penelope. The waaat? Oh yes my friend. I haven't had much in the +$70 range of bourbons but this one is special. The proprietor I am told personally selected the barrel and bought the whole barrel to bottle it himself. AWESOME. Which explains the "Liquorama" label on the bottle. I ordered 2 more for shipment. Another interesting buy was "Dore Vodka." Oat mash made in Normandy France. Still tastes like vodka but ooo la la! I will still slum it at BevMo but reluctantly.
