Incentives to encourage people — either as employees or citizens — to get a COVID-19 vaccine is a becoming a bit of a cottage industry.
Krispy Kreme Doughnuts, for one, made national headlines by offering a doughnut a day for the rest of the 2021 with proof of a COVID-19 vaccine. A movie theater in Cleveland, meanwhile, Chagrin Cinemas, is giving out free popcorn through April to vaccinated moviegoers, according to a CNBC report. And one of the quirkier get-the-vaccine incentives comes courtesy of the Greenhouse of Walled Lake marijuana dispensary in Michigan, where anyone over 21 with proof of vaccination can get a free pre-rolled joint. The dispensary calls the incentive “pots for shots.”
