As cannabis enthusiasts and new shoppers alike prepare for Green Wednesday and 4/20, we at The Bakery know firsthand how these two high-spirited holidays have put cannabis sales events in the national spotlight. Beyond just discounts, these events shape what’s trending, spotlight new products, and offer shoppers a golden opportunity to discover fresh favorites, top brands, and real value in every category. In this guide, we’ll break down what makes Green Wednesday unique, how it compares to 4/20, and—most importantly—how you can maximize savings, find what’s hot, and navigate the action like a seasoned shopper at The Bakery.
Understanding Green Wednesday: The Thanksgiving Eve Phenomenon
You may have heard folks call Green Wednesday the “Black Friday of Cannabis.” But what is it, really? Green Wednesday falls the day before Thanksgiving, offering customers not just discounts but a critical moment to stock up for holiday travels, family time, and group celebrations. For many, it’s an annual tradition that brings together both newer consumers and connoisseurs. We see shoppers building party packs for Friendsgiving, planning gift bags with edibles, and scooping up low-profile options like vape pens for discreet enjoyment all weekend long.
- Green Wednesday consistently brings a surge in store and online activity at The Bakery, rivaled only by 4/20.
- This event marks one of the best times to nab big savings, try new formats, and access seasonal drops before winter’s full swing.
- Anticipate expanded deals on flower, pre-rolls, edibles (like chocolates and gummies), and best-selling vape carts, crafted for shareable, travel-friendly experiences.
Green Wednesday vs. 4/20: A Tale of Two Cannabis Sales Events
| Green Wednesday | 4/20 |
|---|---|
|
Wednesday before Thanksgiving Focused on shopping, early holiday gifting, and discreet/group products See big crowds from midday through evening as folks prep for feasts and reunions Value: Steep discounts, BOGO specials, and top bundles |
Always April 20 Celebratory, social, and culture-driven holiday Best for festivals, launches, and exclusive drops Value: New releases, limited editions, and major hype for classics like high-THC flower and concentrates |
While Green Wednesday is often about smart shopping, practical stocking up, and kicking off holiday hosting, 4/20 leans into celebration, discovery, and sharing cannabis culture with friends old and new. We see both newbies and return customers strategize their buys differently—holiday meal planning versus big group hangs—so take a minute to plot your priorities.
