    To buy, or not to buy! That, is the question...

    So, my sister, who is *always* strapped for cash proposed an offer to me today. She wants to sell me food stamps for less than cost...ie, I buy $100 worth of food stamps for $60. She gets, I think she said, about $350 a month for herself and her baby. So should I feel bad for abusing all of your tax money for personal savings of up to 40% on groceries? It's benefitting us both, but I feel so dirty for even doing it. What say /BG/?

    I guess go for it if you won't feel shame.

    No, the closest place to do that makes it not worth it unless I buy in heavy amounts of bulk, which, quite honestly, I don't have the room for.

    Usually its 50.00 USD for 100.00 Food stamp currency.

    Trust me, my community are global ambassadors in such affairs.

    why does she NOT need the food stamps? the 350$ a month covering her and the baby? if she is just selling you a portion of the food stamps, i'd say go for it. you said its benefiting both of you guys. but if shes trying to rough it, i wouldnt do it.

    I was secretly hoping someone from that community would comment, but I didn't want to be overtly racist. So, I'm getting ripped off?

    @rich, she said she uses ~$200 a month.

    She's trying to pull a fast one, tell her to up the ante to $120.00 or you can give her 50.00. Seriously it works in a 2-1 kind of deal, she knows that and is using your naiveness in matter of welfare as an advantage.

    What the FUCK dude if your sister doesn't need it LET SOMEONE THAT FUCKING DOES GET IT WTF?

    Unless you're so poor you can't afford milk, tell your sister and yourself that you fail pretty badly.

    Anyone needing it can apply for them and get them fairly quickly.

    Same day or same week in most cases. Push comes to shove you can always get emergency and have it put on there in a matter of hours while they review your paperwork.

    Ask Texans about their shitty Lonestar cards.

    Definately not drugs. She does (or has done) pot. That's about it. I have to pay a chunk of her cell phone bill every month, and my mom stays on her ass about a car payment, so I'd imagine that it'll go to bills. She doesn't have a job and has been living off of child support. My sister is a class act as you can see.

    if she needed it for weed, thats not a big deal. other drugs are when you pull the plug on it. but if thats the case, do what miz said. offer her half of whats its worth. thats how much i get mine for.
