The first dispensary that opened in Jersey City back when the state went legal, is known not just for quality, but for its unwavering commitment to affordability. RIPT Dispensary, located just steps from Journal Square, is flipping the script on overpriced cannabis, and proving that top-tier products don’t have to come at top-shelf prices.
Whether you’re a seasoned enthusiast or just canna-curious, RIPT is making sure that everyone can afford to explore, learn, and enjoy.
Everyday Deals, Every Day
At RIPT, saving money isn’t reserved for holidays or limited-time offers, it’s built into the DNA of the store. Their “Everyday Steals” tier features consistent, high-quality flower and products at the lowest possible prices, ideal for everyday shoppers or budget conscious customers.
From pre-rolls to edibles, RIPT makes sure that affordable doesn’t mean average. All products, regardless of price, are fully tested, regulated, and staff-recommended.
Surprise Perks: The Freebie Factor
Customers frequently walk out with bonus samples, buy-one-get-one deals, or limited time gifts just for showing up. Members of RIPT’s loyalty program score exclusive surprise perks, making each visit feel more rewarding than the last.
Loyalty That Actually Pays
While many dispensaries have point systems that feel confusing or forgettable, RIPT’s loyalty program is built for simplicity and value. Shoppers earn points with every purchase, which can be redeemed for discounts, free products, or early access to special drops, no fine print or tiers to unlock.
For frequent shoppers, the program adds up quickly, and helps regulars maximize savings with minimal effort. Shoppers are able to redeem their points in stacks of 250, 500, and 1000, for $10, $20, and $50 off respectively.
Additionally, RIPT has now implemented one of the first of it’s kind for the New Jersey market, a punch card rewards system on top of their regular points. This program incentivises customers to stock up and make every visit count because every time they spend $75 on one purchase, they get a stamp. What happens when a customer gets 5 stamps? 25$ off, clean and simple. This is a great program for those that like to buy a few products at once.
Tiered Pricing to Fit Every Type of Customer
Not everyone shops the same, and RIPT gets that. That’s why their flower menu is divided into three straightforward pricing tiers:
- Everyday Steals: Value-priced, quality-tested cannabis for everyday use.
- Sweet Spot: A balanced collection of reliable favorites at a moderate price.
- Craft Reserve: Premium, small-batch flower for connoisseurs or special occasions.
This pricing model empowers customers to choose based on need, not guesswork, without compromising on transparency, testing, or freshness.
Breaking the Stigma for First-Time Shoppers
Legal doesn’t always mean comfortable, especially for those new to cannabis. That’s why RIPT puts a major focus on education, friendly service, and removing the pressure many shoppers feel or have felt.
From explaining the difference between indica and sativa to helping a customer microdose with low-THC gummies, the staff at RIPT are trained to create an experience that’s welcoming, informative, and never overwhelming.
And for those who prefer to browse or ask questions without making a purchase? That’s perfectly fine, too. RIPT has plenty of kiosks spread throughout the space to comfortably browse at your own pace.
A New Standard for Cannabis in Jersey City
With clear pricing, consistent savings, and a commitment to customer care, RIPT is maintaining a community favorite, not just for what they sell, but how they sell it.
Whether you're exploring cannabis for the first time or looking to make your dollars go further, RIPT is proving that affordability, education, and quality can all live under one roof.
