It needed to close, this was a long time coming... There were some fun finds in there, but I would never have shopped in there if it weren't for them having a close out sale. Their sign on the outside said "EVERYTHING 40-75% OFF!" Which wasnt true at all, there was A LOT of stuff in there that was only 10% off. I was looking at a lot of the different things they had, we spent a good two hours in there... a lot of stuff was WAY over priced, there were several items that were 70% off and still weren't worth the left over cost. Oh well, out with the old I suppose...
Another great store with great employees being screwed out of a job by businessmen who don't understand how to run a business. As a former employee of a different shopko I wish the staff the best of luck in their futures.
Store Closing sale has terrible deals. They jack up the "original prices", once again, so they can claim a bigger discount. 5/5 stars America.
I love shopko, going to miss this place!
I'm going to miss it :'(

A dispensary is a store that sells special items or dispenses the specialized items. Cannabis or marijuana dispensariers started in the US some time in the early 1990’s when Dennis Peron opend the San Francisro Cannbis Buyers Club. Back then the cannabis dispensary faced a ton of hardships, but Dennis, his team and dream helped pave the future for all future recreational and medical cannabis dispensaries. In 2014 the first recreational dispensary, 3D Cannabis opened it’s doors in Colorado. As of 4-1-19 33 states have medical dispensaries and 10 states have recreational dispensaries.
At a dispnsary one will find many differnt kinds of cannabis flowers (buds) and concentrates, edibles along with smoking untensils, but have a limited selection compared to online shops like Elev8 Glass Gallery. The dispensary also will have what is called a budtender to help you find what you are looking for. If you need help with cannabis info Elev8 Presents is a good resource.
In realtiy medical and recreational dispensaries are the same thing. This all comes down to the states laws on cannabis. We feel cannabis is just like alcohol and medical will happen first and then recreational will follow, and so far history is showing this. Dispensaries are an excellent place for patients and recreational smokers alike to find the cannabis that best suits their needs!
