Olivia’s Holiday Gift Guide for Cannabis Lovers

The holidays are right around the corner! If you’re stumped on what to get your favourite stoner this holiday season, look no further! I’ve put together the ultimate gift guide for every cannabis lover on your list from affordable stocking stuffers to stylish canna gadgets! 

These are products I treat myself to and own personally, with the exception of the two higher-priced items. With that said, I have used those items and vouch for them hands down! This holiday gift guide has something for every cannabis user at a variety of price points, and I even searched the web to find you the best deals! This list is sure to delight any weed lover! 

Go-To Weed Advent Calendar filler, Stocking Stuffers, or Hanukkah Gifts 

Everyone deserves a little something during the holiday season! Here are some great smaller gifts to fill those stockings, advent calendars, or get ready for Hanukkah, all under $15! 

  • King Palm Filter Tips & Leaf Rolls – Banana Cream will bring you back to your childhood and the Mint Tips are so fresh!   
  • Clipper Refillable Lighter & Hemp Wick Lighter Sleeve – Clipper lighters are refillable and you can also use the removable flint as a poker tool, they come in so many designs it’s hard to pick just one! Hemp Wick is also great for lighting your joints, pipe, or bong and will help with retaining the flavour of your flower while preventing toxins lighters produce from contaminating your smoke. 
  • Dames Gummies – These are my personal must-have on-hand gummies. The dosage is accurate at 20mg per gummy with 10 per pack, and they come in a variety of flavours for everyone’s taste. The sour strawberry reminds me of those strawberry marshmallow candies and the pina colada is so tropical and coconutty! Interested? Check out our Dames review.

A Little Extra Something for Under the Christmas Tree… 

Electric Grinder – For the stoner who HATES Grinding 

This holiday season, take the step every stoner loathes out of the equation with an electric grinder! Not everyone is up to the task of grinding; in my household, I’m the grinder, and my roomie is the roller. It’s a fair trade for us, but what if I’m not home? Enter the electric grinder!  

Easier on the wrist and great for anyone with arthritis or other wrist/joint pains, electric grinders make the perfect accessible gift to make it quick and easy to get to the good stuff. This one has a glass jar attachment with a lid so you don’t have to muck around transferring your busted flower to another storage container. The glass jar will also reduce static, so no herb is left sticking to the sides.

CVault Storage containers – for the weed connoisseur or grower  

We get a lot of questions about storing flower, and although a mason jar works fine, if you or someone you know likes to keep a variety of strains or larger quantities on hand, proper storage is key. These are an ideal present for the cannabis grower in your life, as once the crop is ready plastic Ziploc bags are less than ideal.  

Available in multiple sizes, CVault containers are completely air and light tight which will keep your flower fresh and at the right humidity level, preventing your flower from degrading. Each CVault comes with a Boveda pack, which isn’t necessary. However, for those occasions you’re caught with dry flower, toss the Boveda pack into your CVault and within a week or so you will discover refreshed buds! Check out the size range and scoop one up HERE! 

 

The Main Event 

XMAX V3 Pro – For the stoner on the go 

I have been looking into a flower vape pen for some time now, and many of you have reached out and suggested the XMAX V3 Pro, so my research began!  

As a consistent cannabis user of 20 years, it was evident that I needed to reduce the number of doobies smoked as my lungs and chest have been feeling it. Flower vapes appeared fussy and the transition seemed like it would never take, there is just something about the process of grinding your favourite strain, rolling it, and lighting it up that had me very resistant to a vape pen. However, I am a cougher through and through and as my doctor suggested, the responsible move was to try a flower vape. Not to mention, this vape pen is extremely convenient for the on-the-go stoner!  

Most often compared to the PAX 3, the XMAX V3 Pro has a solid reputation at nearly half the cost. Although not as sleek as the PAX, I don’t find it too bulky to carry around or use. This device uses convection heating and heats up in under 30 seconds. It can be used in session mode or on-demand mode. Session mode keeps the chamber hot for 4 or 6 minutes, whichever you prefer, while on-demand mode will keep the chamber hot for 2 minutes and you’ll have to hold down the power button when inhaling, while session mode requires no button pressing. I have been loving the 4-minute session mode, I can get two rounds from the same herb with this option, and about 6 uses until I need to recharge the battery.  

Another perk is that there are numerous accessories for the XMAX V3 Pro, including the wax cup which comes standard with the vaporizer. After scouting the web for the best deal all around from a Canadian shop, I bought mine from VPM. They had the latest colour drop, Emerald Green, as well as they included a free silicone water pipe adapter, which I have been using with my bong, and wow. I also enjoyed the 10% off coupon they shared when I gave them my email address, they are also local to the lower mainland and have amazing customer support.  

For anyone looking to treat themselves or a loved one to a healthier smoking option with great portability, I highly suggest the XMAX V3 Pro. The new Emerald Green colour is perfect for the holidays! Check it out here! 

My Bud Vase Bong – For the aesthetically driven canna user 

My Bud Vase is made for those who like to incorporate their bongs into their home styling by ‘disguising’ their bongs as vases. Each bong comes with a cute artificial plant, and there is a plethora of beautiful and functional bong styles to fit every aesthetic. With this gift, recipients will be able to smoke up in style! 

When friends walk into my space, they instantly express the warm welcoming feeling and have even nicknamed the space due to the vibe it emanates. This is something I take pride in therefore I was in search of a bong that I could display and match my style. Enter the Coyote! 

This bong has that vintage 70’s feel and won’t tip off your square family members when they drop in for a visit. Everyone is always surprised to learn it is a bong and instantly wants to give it a whirl. Some even come with additional accessories to match, such as a tray or teacups, check out some of my other faves below! 

For the canna users like myself, My Bud Vase pulls through. You can check out the full lineup from My Bud Vase themselves, however, they are based in the US so shipping/import fees may be applied. Alternatively, you can support a local Canadian business by shopping at Jupiter Glass HERE! If you’re keen on the Coyote style, check out BC Smoke Shop! 

 

Magical Butter Herbal Extractor/Infuser – For the stoned chef

The Magical Butter makes it fool proof and is perfect for making butter, oils, and tinctures! This convenient appliance grinds, heats, stirs and steeps to get a perfect and consistent infusion, there is even a cleaning cycle so cleanup is a breeze!  

This appliance is great for infusing your own edibles at your preferred dose, making topicals, and more. You can also use other garden herbs, not just cannabis, so a great kitchen gadget all around.

Storz & Bickel Gold Volcano Classic – For the bougie stoner 

While not all holiday gifts are this fancy, the gold Volcano tabletop vaporizer will surely be on a loved one’s wish list, or maybe your own! I have enjoyed using the Volcano plenty of times, however, have never purchased one myself. Now that it’s available in gold, I know it’s extra, it’s top of my list! The Volcano first hit the market in 2000 and is an icon when it comes to tabletop vaporizers with a stand-up reputation all on its own paving the way for today’s vaporizer industry with known quality and craftsmanship. If you live or have visited Vancouver, visiting the Amsterdam Café with friends, and using the Volcano is almost a rite of passage as a cannabis user, so why not bring the experience home?  

Did you know you can also use the vaped flower to make edibles? Since the flower is now decarbed, you are good to go make butter or coconut oil to add to your go-to holiday recipes! (This goes with vaped flower from the XMAX V3 Pro and any other herb vaporizer as well!) 

I scoured the web to find the best deal, regularly $749.99+, Head Candy Smoke Shop has it marked down 20% at $599.99 (can’t guarantee how long this discount will last), check them out here!
