How do they still not know you can’t get some items with food cards? Had a lady try to buy bacon, honey buns, and Miller high life with the card.


They should go back to using actual stamps instead of the debit card. It shouldnt be convenient to mooch. It should be embarrassing. Furthermore, it should be staples like bread, milk, wheat, beans, rice, etc picked up at a food bank or distribution center. They have completely normalized life of the government dole.

What infuriates me the most is somebody buying groceries at the gas station on EBT, then busting out a wad of cash to buy cigs and booze.

I had to read a pamphlet and take a quiz to train on how to accept food stamps and make change. One of the multiple choice questions was something like:

A customer gives you a $10 stamp for a $6 item, but you do not have enough $1 stamps in your register to make change. You should:

A. Decline the sale.

B. Discreetly ask a coworker or manager for enough stamps to make change.

C. Make change with dollar bills.

D. Yell out "Food stamps!" to get the manager's attention.


I'm guessing you would go with D.
