Tied to my son's HS.

Came in last year and I set it aside. A letter came in today stating that funds would be expunged if the card wasn't used by next month.

I checked out the online info and he has $620 available. He wants to go buy a bunch of candy and sell it to other kids.

Top 5% in median income here, so, no.

Yep. Got like $400 or so.

It isn’t income dependent.



Weird they would just blanket send shite out to people who didn't need it.

More like to the tune of $130-ish.
Letter said monthly would deposit like 20 bucks on the cards and nothing ever happened.

One of my sons did the candy selling gig on the sly in Middle School and was making bank on the markup. Several other kids were running the same racket. When he heard a resource officer was peeking into lockers, he stopped.

Where did you get that info from? I know people who teach at La public HS and I never heard of such thing.

Pretty sure they are still sending the Focus Foods meal kits too
A lady in my moms neighborhood has been trying to cancel for months, she posts on the neighborhood FB page when a delivery comes & sets it on her porch for whoever wants it

Huge waste of money that’s more than likely being wasted

What would you expect from a government that wants to make everyone dependent on the government
