| I went in on the afternoon of Sunday May 11th/25 to get some CBD cream for restless leg syndrome. I have never used cannabis products before, or ever been in a dispensary but the pain from my RLS is so bad I was absolutely willing to give it a shot. My mother had used some CBD cream for arthritis and said it worked wonders so this sounded like the perfect solution. We were out for Mother's Day so I popped in quickly to grab some so I'd have relief for that night.
There was a tall man with a beard and baseball cap and a small woman behind the counter. The woman was VERY insistent I get bath bombs instead. I said I would prefer a cream as I don't have time to take a hot bath every night and this was a nightly (and very painful) occurance. "Oh I know all about Restless Leg, trust me. The cream would only help if you need a break through. You really need the bath bombs."
Basically the whole interaction with her just absolutely rubbed me the wrong way. I know I don't know anything about cannabis but I knew I wanted a cream and she made me feel like an idiot for even asking.
Meanwhile the fellow with the beard told me they had 2 creams available, one as a regular cream and one as a roll-on stick. I asked about the prices for each one and how much product was in each. He said they both had the _same_ amount of material and were roughly the _same_ price so I went with the stick. I have pets so I thought using the stick would help keep the product off my hands.
