University Drive, will each give away 100 gift bags per store, per day, throughout Memorial Day weekend (Friday – Sunday). Additionally, all Zen Leaf dispensaries will feature specials and promotions over the holiday weekend across a number of product categories to thank Arizona customers and celebrate the opening of the largest Zen Leaf in the Grand Canyon state.
