Slurpees and all other COLD food can be bought with them..cigarettes, beer and drugs, including OTC can NOT legally that it.. The illegal use of the food stamp dollars were the reason they went to the EBT card but if people still want to abuse it they can.. If you are caught..you are IN big trouble and so are the people that let you buy those things with it...

We don't have food stamps here but the system we have still gets ripped and abused the same way, children still go without decent food, clothes, housing and education. The answer to your question, no and I never would the coupons are for tiding persons over until they find gainful employment and it's the tax payer who's taxes assist in the funding.

I have heard of quite a few people selling their food stamps to people for like half of what they are worth in order to buy things such as those. Now that it is in form of a debit card I think it happens less than with the old version of actually paper stamps.

I have never had food stamps, but I have seen people who use them get these items. Heck, I have seen someone use stamps at a 7-11 one time for a bloody Slurpee!

uhm you cant. food stamps are part of government aid. it'll only allow you to buy food. these are usually used for single mothers who are ahving trouble afforing food. food stamps are for the mother to help support her child, they wont let you buy alcohol with these because...well...does a child really need drugs? no. there for you cant buy drugs with food stamps.

what u surely could do is talk approximately getting the hell out of ur relationship. it somewhat is coming from somebody who has been via it. so some distance as procuring beer w/FS unlikely to take place so so sorry

that's more than a little illegal. as a tax payer I'm not willing to pay for that kind of stuff.

Anyone who gets caught should be shot by a firing squad.
