Olswell First-Time Customer Discount: 25% Off Your First Visit
First-time customers get 25% off their first visit at any of Olswell's four Michigan stores. Bring a valid government-issued photo ID showing you are 21 or older, tell the budtender it is your first visit, and bring cash.

How the first-visit discount works
- Pick a store. Adrian, Grand Rapids, Traverse City, and Kalkaska all offer it.
- Look at the live menu. You can order online for pickup or walk in and shop the counter. Inventory rotates by store, so the menu shows what that store has.
- Bring ID and cash. Every Olswell store is cash only, with an ATM on-site.
- Say it is your first visit. The budtender takes it from there.
- Pick up in store. Online orders are held until the end of the business day.
If you are ordering ahead, ask your store how the discount is applied to your order before you place it.
What to bring
You need one thing for the discount and for any cannabis purchase in Michigan: a valid government-issued photo ID that shows you are 21 or older. A driver's license from any state, a state ID, a passport, or a military ID all work. If you are not sure your ID qualifies, ask the store before you make the trip.
Michigan requires a store to check ID on every sale, discounted or not, and the person buying has to be the person on the ID. Bring cash too. There is an ATM on-site if you need it.
What should I buy first?
Start with something you can control and take a little at a time. Flower, pre-rolls, and low-dose edibles are the easiest first picks, because you can start small and wait to see how you feel. Skip concentrates until you know your tolerance. Tell the budtender what you want from the experience and they will steer you.
- Flower: An eighth (3.5 grams) is plenty to learn on. Ask about lower-THC options, since the THC percentage is on the label and a lower number is easier to pace on a first try. Our indica vs. sativa guide explains why the strain label is only a starting point.
- Pre-rolls: No rolling skills needed. Play makes infused pre-rolls, which usually run stronger than a standard one, so ask for a standard pre-roll if this is your first time.
- Edibles: Michigan caps an edible at 10 mg of THC per serving. Start with 2.5 to 5 mg, wait at least two hours before taking more, and read the edibles guide first. Play carries everyday gummies.
- Vaporizers: A cart is simple and discreet, but you need a compatible battery for most. See the cartridge guide.
- Concentrates: Come back to these once you know your comfort level. If you already use concentrates, ask about RKIVE Reserve and Play.
Questions to ask your budtender
- "What would you pick for someone new?" Tell them whether you want to smoke, vape, or eat something, and whether you want to feel relaxed or stay clear-headed.
- "What is the difference between Play and The Limit?" Play is the everyday brand: gummies, infused pre-rolls, rosin carts, and concentrates. The Limit is the value brand: ounce deals, bulk flower, and limited drops.
- "How much should I start with?" Small. You can always come back for more.
- "How long until I feel it?" Inhaled products take minutes. Edibles can take an hour or two. Waiting is the whole trick.
- "When is Happy Hour at this store?" Adrian, Traverse City, and Kalkaska each have their own windows. See the Happy Hour guide.
Using it with other offers
Happy Hour is 20% off the whole shop at Adrian, Traverse City, and Kalkaska, and Grand Rapids does not run a Happy Hour. Whether and how it combines with your first-visit discount is a question for the budtender, because promo terms can change. Weekly deals and drops are on the live menu and the deals page.
Start your first visit
Open the live menu for your store, pick a few things, and order for pickup, or just walk in: Adrian, Grand Rapids, Traverse City, or Kalkaska. Olswell does not deliver, so pickup is in store. The pickup page has the details.
For adults 21 and older only. Must present valid government-issued photo ID. Please consume responsibly.
Michigan recreational purchase limits: up to 2.5 ounces per transaction, with no more than 15 grams of it as concentrate.
