Person in front of me purchased a handle of Crown with his groceries and only swiped a LA Purchase card. Is their bank account linked to their card for items that are not covered? Just curious

How stupid are you really?

Yea you can. You can cash it out to and buy drugs if you want too.

They get cash benefits that are also on card in addition to "food stamps", cash can be used for anything.

Households CANNOT use SNAP benefits to buy:
Beer, wine, liquor, cigarettes or tobacco;
Any nonfood items, such as:
pet foods;
soaps, paper products; and
household supplies.
Vitamins and medicines;
Food that will be eaten in the store;
Hot foods.
In general, food products that contain alcohol or tobacco, items that are not intended for human consumption (e.g. paper products, pet foods, etc.), vitamins and supplements, and foods sold hot at the point-of-sale, are not eligible for purchase with SNAP benefits.

There's a loophole - they tell the cashier that it's An ingredient for a bbq sauce.

Thanks for the info, yes I am satisfied.
Funny to see how people get so mad when a question is asked about how their tax dollars are spent.

So my taxes are covering someone's booze habit? I have nothing against welfare for covering the basics of life but it's time the govt cut back its hand into our pockets for thing like liquor.

A lot more of it is wasted in a lot more places than on SNAP benefits. Like. A whole lot more.

If the state could enforce common law marriage, there would be far fewer people on the system. Baby Momma claims single mom to get on welfare and get LA Purchase card. Baby Daddy lives in same home, has a job, and uses that money to buy "luxury" items.

They had to pay for it with cash or the cashier was their buddy and fake swiped the booze.
