At the Wal-Mart checkouts the EBT slot is under the machine, not on the face like the one for credit and debit cards, which I’ve learned by watching the oxygen thieves. Take a look next time you’re there.

Imagine a guerrilla attack on the card readers by inserting a piece of double duct taped card stock into the slot the day the EBT and SNAP cards get refilled, it would force all the EBT and SNAP people to not use self checkout.

One can dream....

Or course it would probably cause a zombie riot, os it is not recommended...

Actually, that slot is for all credit cards that use smart chip technology. I just received the last smart chip card the other day, so now I use that slot for all three of my credit cards. All cards in the US will have smart chips soon, if they don't already.
