I was in a similar boat before I moved to California, took about 4 or 5 years for it to seem totally normal for me to stroll into a store and walk out with a cornucopia of amazing shit that my younger self would have drooled over. Takes a lot to overcome decades of the kind of conditioning that makes you incredibly excited to even get a bag of seedy, twiggy, schwag.

Work there. Either in the store or the grow. That tends to sand off the shine. It's still great, but you'll no longer hold up a line.
Basically once you try enough to know "what works" for you. I took me about 2 years. Then I would just go in and find get that thing and occasionally try a new thing.
Not in FL, but also check out the great variety and decent prices you can get online - hoku seed co, eight horses hemp, secret nature, flow gardens, ...
It's not a non-profit endeavor, but I find leafly.com to be a great resource
Fluent is pretty terrific
You absolutely should try all the shops in your area. Most offer a discount for your first or first several visits. Sign up for the email clubs too. They do sales often
