WCVB reports on the opening of the first recreational pot shop in Provincetown, population 3,000, while Boston, population nearly 700,000, has yet to see any open.
Provincetown has approved 6-7 pot shops which are just waiting for the State licensing to catch up. The opening of the first shop on the Cape will undoubtedly be a huge boon to the Town’s economy, particularly during the deliciously desolate winter. I wonder how it will affect foot and vehicle traffic here on our narrow already cramped lanes.
Sounds like about the same number of liquor stores as pot stores. One day, that's how every place will be and we'll look back and laugh at all the hype over the first shops that opened.
You can smell the stench of weed morning, noon and night in Boston. Walking down the street in my neighborhood I see guys smoking in their parked cars behind the wheel and sometimes while driving. Losers.

Put that on a Tshirt and sell it at Faneuil Hall
Yeah
Sell it from a cart which is then shut down for not having a permit.
T-Dance will be off the hook
Now we save a whole lot of time standing in endless drink lines....
Nope
Been to the boatslip in the past year or so?
Huge signs that have a marijuana leaf with an X thru it. They cannot.. and WILL NOT allow it. They could lose their liquor license over it.
Was more thinking edibles...
Vs vapes or pre-roll

In line with booze

Wait.
I thought it was supposed to be thousands, and that every strip mall on the South Shore was going to be dedicated to pot shops. At least that's how opponents of legalized pot depicted the future in this little nugget of an ad that ended up being a huge gift to the pro-legalization movement, one of the most unintentionally laughable political ads in recent history.
So if you can’t wait
and need a fix, drive down or take the ferry to Ptown or better yet go to Brookline.
A fix?
No. That's for heroin.
Meanwhile, in Southie
At the meeting at the Tynan last night, the muppets where all whining about the proposed pot shop on W 1st.
Where?
Try East First Street Neighborhood.
recreational pot shops in the city: no

Why can I buy beer,
Why can I buy beer, cigarettes and scratchies in one place, but have to go to Brookline to get my pot? It's preposterous!
Typo in article?
"recreatoinal" should presumably be "recreational," no?
Yep
Fixed, thanks.
