Shop Local on the Ave: Why Small Business Saturday Matters for Boston Cannabis

 

BOSTON: The holiday shopping rush is about to hit. Thanksgiving is Thursday, November 26, 2026. Black Friday follows, and then comes the day that matters most to neighborhood businesses: Small Business Saturday, November 28, 2026.

Small Business Saturday is about one simple idea. When you spend your money with local, independent businesses, more of that money stays in your community. That goes for coffee shops, barbershops, bookstores and restaurants, and it goes for cannabis too.

Full disclosure: I run marketing, promotion and events at Comm Ave Canna.

Why Independent Dispensaries Matter

The cannabis industry has a lot of big players with locations in multiple states. That's not a bad thing, but independent shops bring something different: local owners, local hiring and a store that reflects the neighborhood it sits in.

Comm Ave Canna is an independent, family-owned, social equity dispensary. Choosing a shop like that helps keep ownership in the hands of people from the community, which is a big part of what legal cannabis in Massachusetts was supposed to be about.

Make a Day of It on the Ave

Small Business Saturday is better as a full day out. Comm Ave Canna sits right on the Boston-Brookline line, surrounded by local spots worth supporting. Grab food from a neighborhood restaurant, hit a local shop for gifts, and make your stop on the Ave part of the route.

The Packard's Corner and Babcock Street stops on the Green Line B branch are less than a five-minute walk away. Holiday weekends get busy, so the train might beat looking for parking.

Shop Smart

Order ahead online or through the app and pick up in store to skip the wait. Check commavecanna.com for the menu, and check hours before you head out, since holiday weeks can change things.

Regular hours are:

  • Monday through Saturday: 10 AM to 8:55 PM
  • Sunday: 12 PM to 6:55 PM
Bring a valid, hard-copy, state or government-issued photo ID. Out-of-state IDs work too, as long as they're valid. You must be 21 or older to shop.

Keep It Safe This Holiday Season


Houses get full over the holidays, with kids, cousins and pets everywhere. Store cannabis locked up and out of reach, and never drive high. Get home first, then enjoy the long weekend.

The Stack Pack Take

Big-box deals will be everywhere this month. But the businesses that sponsor your local events, hire your neighbors and know your name are the ones that make a city feel like home. This Small Business Saturday, shop local, shop independent, and show love to the Ave.

Pull up and tell them Stack Pack sent you.

1030 Commonwealth Ave, Second Floor
