GotVape.com Arizona Road Trip
By: Kahinano Donlin
Arizona - GotVape.com ventured off to Arizona for a much needed smoke shop promotion.
The Got Vape Van took off from California early in the afternoon and we found ourselves cruising on the I10 for about 5 hours.
Thankfully, the Got Vape Crew made it to Phoenix in the evening with no problems. We got charged up at the hotel, knowing we needed to be ready to hit up all of the smoke shops in the morning.
The day started off at “The 70’s Hookah Lounge,” located right in the heart of downtown Phoenix.
The shop was decked out with a hue of 70’s inspired colors, making the customer feel like they were actually in an Austin Powers movie.
Got Vape was able to educate all of the shop people about Vaporization 101, topics like the difference between forced air flow vaporizers and the traditional box style vaporizers.
After decking out the shop with Got Vape SWAG, we headed out for Trails Smoke Shop.
Trails has been in AZ for almost thirty years, however the owner is not hip on the advancements of vaporization, so Got Vape made sure to hit up each one of their shops and convert the store workers on Got Vape!
Luckily, all of the other stores in AZ were down with Got Vape. Our long time hommies at, “It’s All Goods,” were representing hard with the Original Got Vape Stickers.
This shop is right there on 32nd street in Phoenix, make sure to peep them out if you are in the area.
We quickly zoomed through the other shops in Phoenix like, “Bash’s, One Stop, Little Amsterdam, J Smoke,” just to name a few.
With Phoenix off of our plate, it was a perfect time to get down to the ASU crowd down in Tempe.
Tempe houses some of AZ’s elite smoke shops. We have been down with the crew at Hippy Gypsy and Headquarters for close to 10 years.
Fred’s Hippy Gypsy is perhaps the very finest smoking accessory store we’ve actually come across here in America.
These two stores have Got Vape represented all over their spots.
When we got over to Tempe, groups of ASU students would stop by the van for some stickers and lanyards.
We were super excited about the vibe that the students showed Got Vape while we were rolling around in Tempe and Scottsdale.
The Got Vape Van took off for Tucson in the evening. We completely killed the whole area. The 80 mile drive down to Tucson flew because we were staying at the elegant Marriott Star pass Resort.
We could not wait to sit down, eat, and have a much needed volcano session.
In the morning the van perused through the city, and then in the afternoon, we set up the convention center for Tucson Takeover 08 w/Lil Wayne.
The AZ journey went extremely well because we accomplished the goal of educated everyone that Got Vape came into contact with.
