Brianna Bergtholdt, a bud tender with Animas Herbal Wellness Center, assists Lynn Lucero with her purchase on Wednesday. “We are seeing a little bit more business today,” said manager Vanessa Brown. On Wednesday, marijuana shoppers benefited from a one-day suspension of the state’s 10 percent sales tax and 15 percent excise tax on marijuana. The one-day suspension of the taxes meant shoppers saved about $20 an ounce on marijuana.
