What to Expect on Your First Visit

Walking into a dispensary for the first time feels bigger than it needs to. Here's the plain rundown of what actually happens at 2233 N Burdick St, from the door to the register — game room, lounge, and all. No jargon, no pressure, and nothing you need to memorize ahead of time.

Before you head over

What to bring

Keep it simple. This is everything you actually need for a first stop — no special preparation required beyond the ID in your pocket.

  • A valid, unexpired government photo ID showing you're 21 or older — every visit, no exceptions.
  • Your phone, if you want to browse the Weedmaps menu before you arrive.
  • A way to pay — there's an ATM on site if you need it.
  • A little patience if it's a first visit; the room, the menu, and the game room are all new to look at.
The Skunkies mascot, a grinning skunk in a black suit and red sneakers — the shop's frontman

Meet the frontman

He's on every wall, sticker, and pass

The grinning skunk in the suit and red sneakers is Skunkies' own mascot — the frontman of the place. He's on the logo, the posters, and the tour-poster stickers around the shop. Consider him the unofficial welcome committee.

21+, every time. No exceptions.

The one rule that never bends

Michigan adult-use cannabis is for adults 21 and over, full stop. Bring valid ID every single visit — not just the first one — and expect it to be checked at the door.

No cannabis consumption on premises. That's the shop's own house rule, posted at the door.

General flow, not a script

Your first visit, minute by minute

Every stop is a little different, but this is the general shape of it.

  1. On arrival

    Curbside or walk in

    Curbside pickup is available if you'd rather not come inside — otherwise, head to the door.

    ID check

    Valid photo ID, 21+, every time. This part isn't optional.

  3. Inside

    Browse or pick up

    Come with something already picked from the Weedmaps menu, or take your time browsing what's on hand.

  4. At checkout

The part most shops don't have

A game room and a lounge, right on site

Skunkies isn't only a counter and a menu — there's a game room and a lounge on the premises, both open since day one.

The game room

Games and seating — ask at the counter what's set up today.

The lounge

A space to hang out — no cannabis consumption on premises, same as everywhere else in the shop.

The one rule

No cannabis consumption on premises, anywhere in the building — the game room and lounge included.

This is where it all started — 21+, no consumption on site, then or now

Skip the browsing

Order ahead in three steps

If you already know what you want, this is the fastest way in and out — most of the wait ends up being the drive over, not the counter itself.

Browse the menu

Open the Weedmaps menu and see what's currently listed across flower, pre-rolls, vapes, concentrates, edibles, and accessories.

Note what you want

Keep the product names handy on your phone for when you arrive, so you're not re-browsing at the counter.

Arrive, ID, checkout

Walk in or use curbside pickup, show ID, and you're set — the register moves fast once your order is already picked.
