At my local store, 50+ pounds of steak is $500+ dollars. How much food stamp money do you think people get?
I have seen entire families show up with several carts of food, including loaded with meats. Every female in the bunch will have an EBT card and none of them will speak English.
I am just telling you what I see.
I can only assume they can somehow sell or transfer their alotment to others somehow.
So crack head shakela gets high, and hungry shneqwa gets extra money to buy steak.
“How much food stamp money do you think people get?”
It varies by the number of beneficiaries in the household and other factors.
Your prices are high! It isn't usually too hard to find steak for less than $10 per pound. But even so, I quickly googled and found in my state, the average food stamp benefit is $127 per month. A family of four could easily be receiving $500 per month in benefits. Some folks receive more.
Thus, a cart with 50 lbs. of [expensive] steak is plausible.
