Back a million years ago when I worked in a grocery, it would drive me crazy when peeople would come in and buy a bunch on junk with the stamps. Not too long ago a gas station put up a big banner saying "now accepting ebt." No idea what you can get there as it's all some, candy bars, and beef jerky.

I remember as a kid, my mom returning from the store and telling my father the story of the lady in front of her trying to purchase cat food with Food Stamps. The clerk told her animal food did not qualify, so she returned it and said the cat likes Tuna better away.

WTS, I totally support providing aid for those that need it, but as I said guidelines about content of purchase should be established.
