Many Wal-Mart customers use EBT cards. Some of Wal-Mart’s wailing on this point is to advocate for a raise in the amount of food stamp money that goes out. That money flows to Wally World in large part.

Arent food stamps issued by the individual states?

I do my grocery shopping at WalMart. In the last 4 months, every time I checked out, the person in front of me was using an EBT card.

The latest gov’t figure I have seen said 44 million Americans are on foodstamps (ebt).

Wal-Mart shoppers, many of whom live paycheck to paycheck, typically shop in bulk at the beginning of the month when their paychecks come in.

Are they calling them "paychecks" now?

The pay for their groceries with their food stamp card. The beer and cigarettes are paid for separately then they drive away in their Expedition while talking on their Iphone. At least that’s what i’ve seen here in South Florida.

I drove by a gas station/convenience store today with a sign reading "We Accept EBT Cards" near the sidewalk. American flag background on the sign, too.

I was on my way to work, and had to pay for my own fillup later that day ($67, and I used one of those regular debit cards where money doesn't magically appear in the account every month).

First off, the compassionate wagyu beef eating pig, obuma, cut back foodstamps by 20% or more so he could pay off his fat union pig buddies and their pensions.

That happened 7 months ago, but the liar pigs in the press never reported it. Obuma ripped the food out of childrens’ mouths so union slobs could enjoy vacations at Disneyland.

There’s another big cut in foodstamps for kids coming up next month so the fat union pigs have enough money to buy Johnny Walkers and SUVs.

It’s way past time for welfare mommas to riot against the fat SIEU pigs. Lock ‘n load, momma.

Let’s encourage it.

I make a decent living and we shop at Walmart all the time. I know many people who shop at Wal-Mart and I don't know anyone with an EBT card. Inflation hurts all sales. High unemployment coupled with high inflation rate = Jimmy Carter II. I read Wal-Mart is bringing back firearms to many of its stores that it had formerly removed them. Is that an EBT card shopper item? I don't think so.

Can you point me to someplace where Wal-Mart "advocated" for an increase in foodstamp money?
