“It was crazy, it felt like we had an amusement park ride there.”
At Terrapin Care Station dispensary in Aurora, consumers can now buy weed the same way they might buy their favorite chocolates — from a vending machine.
Locals who want to see the new technology for themselves can head to Terrapin Care Station at 11091 E. Mississippi Ave. in Aurora, which boasts the only ACE in use at this time. When they arrive, they still need to check in with and show proof they are at least 21 years old to a dispensary representative to be granted entry.
But once inside the weed shop, they can complete their purchases without ever interacting with a budtender.Customers simply walk up to the machine, scan their ID, and use a touch screen to inspect the menu and fill their digital basket. The ACE can hold up to 1,152 products, Marcus said, and because it’s refrigerated, consumers can order concentrates that require being stored at a certain temperature, which includes flowers, edibles, vape oil cartridges, and other items. And of course, weed.
Once ready to check out, customers pay using cash – the machine does not currently accept debit cards – and watch through a 38-by-30-inch glass window as the ACE grabs, bags, seals, and places a purchased sticker on their order before dispensing it like your average vending machine. While Terrapin Care Station eventually plans to install ACE machines at its five other dispensaries on the Front Range, Marcus said the company’s long-term goal is to sell the technology to other “struggling” retailers throughout the state and country.
