FRAM / Front Range Alternative Medicines
5/12/2013
I received my MMJ card three years ago and, like most, I shopped around and tried out close to a dozen different dispensaries throughout the Springs the first couple years. I had a couple regulars I would frequent, but once I stopped by FRAM (because it's close to work, but not THAT close, if you understand) it became my only dispensary. Serious. I can't think of a single complaint. When I first starting going to them, they had problems w/ their credit card processing, but they got through that quickly and ever since, things have been smooth. I can usually get in, get my meds, and get on my way in minutes.
And if for no other reason, they have a great members program. When you spend a certain amount over time, you get $30 off your next purchase. That's a free 1/8th every so often, which is always a great treat. Non-member prices are pretty nice as well, and they do ounce specials often that are a steal.
I'm not an edible purchaser, but they seem to have a nice selection, pretty varied in variety. They have wax and moonrocks too, but I can only vouch for their smoke, which never disappoints.
I actually didn't become a member until recently... I had been happy just buying there at non-member prices, their service and selection and prices were good enough. As a member, though, they're even better! Plus I get a "free" 1/8 now and again, which is like a surprise Xmas.
I swear I'm not an employee, a personal friend or a paid endorsement. :) I just found out they had a leafly page so I registered just to give them props for how well they've treated me since the start.
They're really good people, know their strains' effects and how they may apply to what ails you. They remember their customers and often have suggestions when new strains come in. They're very professional, friendly and always willing to explain anything and answer any questions.
There's a front room, before they walk you into the dispensary proper, that's tastefully decorated, with couches to relax in, if you have to wait. A large fish tank, pipe displays, an area for local business cards and pamphlets, and local artwork on display.
Dude, just check it out. If you live on the Northside of the Springs, you have no reason not to. If you don't, like me, it's still worth the drive. I haven't visited another dispensary in at least a year.
