Ask A Stoner ~ How Can Cannabis Help with Black Friday Shopping Anxiety


I get it—Black Friday is a whole vibe, but it’s also chaos with a capital C. The crowds, the lines, the FOMO—it's enough to make anyone lose their chill. But don’t worry, I’ve got you covered with some cannabis-friendly hacks to help you stay zen while you score those sweet deals.

Pre-Game with a Relaxing Strain

First things first, if you're feeling the pre-shopping jitters, it’s time to slow your roll with a calming strain. Look for something high in CBD or a balanced THC-CBD hybrid—these strains will help you stay grounded without getting too spaced out. Trust, you don’t want to be that person who accidentally buys 10 of the same thing because you zoned out. Go for something that’ll keep you level-headed, like Harlequin or ACDC—they’ll help you focus and take the edge off.

Best for Outdoor Shopping Decisions 

If you’re taking your shopping to the streets (or malls), you’re gonna need something to keep your energy high and your creativity flowing. You’re gonna be dodging crowds, scanning for discounts, and making fast decisions—so you need a strain that’ll keep you hype and in the zone.

Go for something like Jack Herer or Super Lemon Haze—these sativa-heavy strains will have you feeling energized, focused, and ready to power through that chaos. If you’re not about that smoke life, try a cannabis edible like a THC-infused gummy or chocolate bar—these will give you that fun, buzzy vibe and keep you moving. You'll be pulling off those last-minute sales in no time, trust.

Best for Online Shopping Decisions 

Now, if you’re the type to chill at home and do your shopping from the couch, you’ll need something that helps you stay calm and in control while browsing through endless deals. Granddaddy Purple or Blue Dream are perfect for this. They’ll mellow you out without making you sleepy, so you can focus and shop at your own pace.

Grab a pre-roll or some flower, light it up, and get cozy while you add all your goodies to the cart. No stress, no rush—just smooth, easy vibes while you score the best offers on your wishlist. Plus, you’ll still be on top of your shopping game, making all the best decisions without any overthinking.

Best for Deal Hunting 

We know the key to Black Friday success is focus. You don’t wanna be zoning out when you’re trying to grab those flash sales, right? That’s where my favorite sativa strains come in—think Durban Poison or Green Crack. These strains will have your mind sharp, your energy up, and your mind laser focused on deal-hunting the best discounts out there!

So pop some flower into your Signature Grinder, and you’ll be locked in, laser-focused, and ready to tackle every sale. No distractions, no mistakes. Just pure deal-hunting beast mode.


Best for Post-Shopping Recovery

After all that shopping madness, you’re gonna need some recovery time. Whether you’re nursing your tired legs after hitting the mall or recovering from an online spending spree, you’ll want something that helps you wind down and de-stress. Chill dabs or vapes are the move here.

Try a high-CBD dab or vape, like ACDC or Harlequin, to help you unwind without feeling totally wiped out. You’ll be able to hit that reset button, get comfortable, and let the stress melt away. No more shopping-induced anxiety—just straight-up relaxation.

Stay in the Moment with Microdosing

Not trying to get too baked, but want a little extra help to stay present while you scour the sales? Microdosing is your best friend. Just a tiny hit of THC can give you that relaxed, happy feeling without any of the intense effects that might make you zone out. Microdosing allows you to stay focused, calm, and still be totally with it as you check out the hottest deals. This will make sure you're not distracted by the 50% off socks (as tempting as they are).

Final Thoughts

Black Friday doesn’t have to be a nightmare. With the right cannabis, you can breeze through the sales, keep your chill, and grab all the deals without losing your mind. So, whether you’re hitting the stores or just clicking away from the comfort of your couch, make sure you’re stocked up on your favorite strains and edibles to keep the vibe right. After all, it’s supposed to be fun, not stressful—let weed help you find that balance.

Happy shopping, and may the deals be ever in your favor. 👌
