Need Weed? You Can Have it Delivered in New York

Move over Grubhub. Step aside DoorDash. There's a new delivery coming to town - cannabis, brought right to your door.
Dispensaries can now get approval from the Office of Cannabis Management to begin delivering to customers. But it's only for medical marijuana, not recreational use.
