I live in a rural area, and the local dispensary a 50 minute drive, the next closest is 1hr 40min. a couple more in Champaign which are 2hours away.
I'm willing to travel if a dispensary offers good deals. I live up north and there are a lot of dispensaries around me. However, if there is a place down south that is more affordable, I will go there.

Question to all of you - how did you pick your dispensary? Did you base it off of their inventory, or were there other factors involved?
My first contact in this process was an email I sent to one of the closer dispensaries near me. They directed me to “1body1life”, which is the doctor’s office that did the certification for me.

I’m with 3C Dispensary in Naperville. About an hour from me. Not the closest but I’m sorta surrounded by corn so nothing was truly local. I’ll give a review on them when I get to finally go there (perhaps in the next couple of days!)

You called it! I was actually approved on 5/18 and I think my card is coming today. MedcardClock told me May 22nd so it was off by 1 week. That’s surprisingly accurate, actually.

No i know my luck they will put it at the bottom lol.... I called my doctor they told me no one that has applied in March has got there cards yet but she said you should get it the first or secound week of June
I’m 3/2 and it appears I’m getting mine today. I’ve seen a few others from early March already get theirs too. Seems to be averaging 75-90 days at the moment. You’re getting close.

Well now I'm upset. I just called the state to try and change my dispensary and the woman I spoke to said I could only change it now if they have started processing my application. Guess what, they haven't started yet. Wow. That means I'm not even close to the date medcardclock predicted. Who knows when my card will magically show up.

That right there is why im not calling... You get the wrong person at the wrong time say there mad who knows they may take your app and put it back at the bottom. Im just going to wait it out and if I dont hear anything by end of June then im calling my doctor and having them look into it... there the ones who I gave my money to let them handle it
 
Yes, it was March 11 when my papers were electronically submitted, received my card today. The dispensary was an odd experience, but very cool. I was glad I did research on leafly before going.
Adding: p76 loaded as I was typing. Congrats on surviving the wait to the others who got cards today!
