Doesn’t surprise me a bit. I’d say at least half the people I see at the grocery store are paying with some form of food stamps. Lots of younger millenial types too.
I do think the grocery stores should put in a “food stamps aisle”, because it is infuriating standing in line behind a bunch of dawdlers who have no jobs and are in no hurry, when you have stuff to get done.
It pisses me off even more when the stampies try to sneak through something not covered by stamps. Of course the scanner refuses to accept their EBT card. Then they get to go through all that they bought, looking for the illegal item. Sometimes the stampies will raise hell and get the CS manager involved.
Meanwhile the line behind the stampies, which I’m standing in, grows longer and my frozen stuff slowly melts.
AARRGGHH!!!!!!!
