CAN I SMOKE IN-STORE?
No – You may not open, smoke, or consume any cannabis products on Enlighten Alaska’s premises per AMCO (Alaska Marijuana Control Office) regulations for cannabis dispensaries within Anchorage, Alaska.
WHAT IS ENLIGHTEN'S BIRTHDAY DEAL?
We offer a .5g preroll for $0.01 on the day before, day of, or day after your birthday.
This is tied to your loyalty account, so redeeming your birthday preroll at one of our locations means you can’t redeem it again at our other location.
Pro Tip: Ask your budtender for a complementary list of birthday deals around all the Anchorage dispensaries!
CAN I RETURN OR EXCHANGE MARIJUANA PRODUCTS?
No, all sales are final.
Unfortunately we cannot accept returns or exchanges of products once it has been opened or has left Enlighten Alaska’s premises.
If you have any issues with the products purchased at one of our dispensaries, please bring it back to the dispensary you have purchased and explain the issue to your budtender. We’re constantly improving our products, and greatly appreciate the feedback.
