Yahooooooo! First of the month = EBT card reloaded. Now how to make $200 stretch

Post by superstevies on Tue Mar 01, 2011 3:48 pm

WOW!

Never though I'd be the one getting excited about the 1st day of each month..but now I can honestly say...by the 25th of each month I start to have delusions about what I will buy when my $200 in reloaded on the first.

I try to get the stuff to make chocolate chip coookies, so when the $ runs out, I still have some comfort.

I got mine today too, and 250 minutes on my Safelink phone. The simple things in life can make you very happy.

Michigan's is all screwed up. They've been changing the dates on all recipients and I don't get mind until the 10th. It really sucks.

Yea! Happy for you to take advantage of what illegals get with no
questions asked. We, on the other hand have to flip through cartwheels.

Does it really matter if you have savings to get food stamps? I do have some but it's going fast.

NYS application says it's changed and it doesn't matter, if you have no income - I don't - no UI. Wondering if that's true.
