Do you have a source for EBT cards all being refilled on the 1st of the month?
Perhaps in your state, but many states have gone to a distribution throughout the month to avoid that problem
(SocSec is the same way now - in the old days everybody got their SS deposit on one day)
Not all states. I know Missouri spreads their payments out.
The welfare money part of EBT that can be used almost anywhere, is the first 4 days of the month depending on your birth month. I don’t have this but that is what the website says.
The food stamp part, that can only be used on food, is based on last name and birth month. All but April and December has two days. Anytime from the 1st to the 22nd when people born in December get theirs filled.
Yeah I have to shop at Wal-Mart as we basically only have them, Dollar General, a local overpriced grocery store owned by a dirty old man (but a good meat department), a food service outlet (which takes EBT and I like shopping there) and a few other places that isn’t worth the time or effort to stop at.
If I get a chance I like shopping at Aldi and Kroger, but since I don’t drive I have to rely on my mom or a sister. Usually only get there when I have a doctor appointment but occasionally we do a just shopping trip.
At the one nearest me it’s the first Saturday of the month that must be avoided. Hillbilly convention is the only way to describe it. A sight to behold.
