In MA, they'll take debit for a fairly small transaction fee. I don't think they did initially when they started opening up.

>Of course, being such a potentially lucrative target for thieves, each dispensary has security personnel who will only grant admission after ID is shown.

I assume the state law just doesn't allow anyone under 21 to be admitted.

I want to say yes, that you must be over 21, but I am not certain. I do know that you can purchase with out of state ID, but you have a lower limit as to how much you can buy than if you are an Illinois resident. A friend is a regular customer and he shared that he qualified for a discount after purchasing so much over time. Personally, I rarely use cash much. I actually forgot the PIN to my debit card. Had the same $20 in my billfold for months.
