I like the little asian ladies at the tenderloin in the shitty.. "food stamp? food stamp?" then they send you to a little asian grocery and you and yer buddy hafta carry two 50lbs bags of rice around the corner to a conveinence store then haggle with her to try to get more than half. hahaha I will never forget that.

WAL MARTS WILL NEVER LET YOU EXCHANGE FOODSTAMPS FOR CASH. they told me its policy that they put it back on the card. oh well though i got two really delicious sandwichs. also theres spots all over the country that will just straight sell you beer/cigarettes on food stamps. i got a couple spots in a couple different states. and if you have some DONT TELL OTHER PEOPLE ABOUT IT BECAUSE THEN NO ONE WILL GET TO BUY BEER THERE

At the Wal Mart in my area, you can buy olive oil/expensive food and return it for cash. They are pretty lax about it, I would only return them after like a five minute wait.

tried it at safeway and it worked, thanks for the tip, the receipt in the trash also works,that is the surefire method but now i have a 2nd weapon in my arsenal.....i think it also just depends where you are to and such, i usually like to do the whole home depot scam, i take 5 of these little trim pieces for your trim around your carpet and there like 20$ each and i take 5 cause the 100$ return policy and just sell the gift card they issue to me to some rough cut looking contractor and they usually scoop that shit up pretty quick.

here's from the walmart website

What's Walmart's No Receipt returns policy?
Walmart's No Receipt policy applies to items returned in a store only. You have the option of a cash refund (for purchases under $25), a Gift Card for the amount of the purchase (for purchases over $25) or an even exchange for the product. We also follow any manufacturer's warranties. You can make up to three No Receipt returns within a 45 day period.

well..... buy fruit juice with your stamps.. 5lbs of sugar.. and some bread yeast (though wine yeast is waaay better for 70 cents cash more).... add water and voila... the ingredients for 5 gallons of wine for 7-8 dollars in foodstamps... the trick is to do this everywhere in the country.... during fruit seasons.. then come back to your stash 3 months later... and make a new stash in a new town every week..... and rotate that shit out....

what's the juice/water ratio per 5 gallons? what's best/cheapest to ferment it in (besides a carboy or regular fermenter)?? thanks.

I gotta say, hit up the little arab or asian markets, they usually dont give a fuck what you buy. pretty much any place without a corporate system, if you are legit with them, will hook you up. They dont give a fuck, and their fs charging system doesnt itemize the items you buy.
I used to buy my tobacco all the time at a little arab market in Oakland when I lived there, they were a bit touchy about the alcohol, but the vietnamese market down the street was good for that.
and in NOLA, you can buy just about anything, porn, lottery tickets, alcohol, tobacco....
The shope owners, and the cashiers, usually dont care at all. Just dont be shady in their shops, and maybe even just ask "can I get this on benefits?".
I dunno, seems a lot easier and a lot cooler than trying to pull some bullshit policy scam at walmart.

Good idea, i'll try this next.

A guy and gal hitching with me last February told me about a trick with fred Meyers returns and putting it onto their rewards card, and using that as cash at any market owned by kroger. I forgot the process he explained to me, but tried it yesterday and they just fed the money back onto my ebt.. Of course.

Though maybe not every center can.

ok, I hate spreading this around, but here is this trick;
You dont need any juice.
Distilled water and sugar, 2 lbs to 1 gallon, and a little yeast.
Can just mix the ingredients in a gallon plastic container. Put a condom on top and vent the gas everyday (or if you arent able to be around, can use a wet piece of cotton fabric)
can guess about 1% a day in fermentation, by 16% the yeast dies, so it will not get more alcoholic.

Some tricks to make it better:
-Use juice instead of water, or dilute juice.
-Use fructose (you can buy it in bulk at a lot of shops like FredMeyer/Kroger)
-add some piece of real fruit to the mix (something a little firm is the best, like an apple or a peach. This floats on top and gives the yeast something to colonize, less chance of contamination killing your yeast)
-Dont let it get to 16%, find the balance between alcohol and flavor, usually around 12-13%.
Bah, nasty shit. will give you the worst hangover. But, it gets you drunk, its super cheap, and you can make it in prison.

Super easy, you can do it at any qfc, safeway, walmart, ect.

SIMPLE:
okay, so foodstamps, purchase food products only, yes?
single items of packaged returnable food usually don't cost much, unless it's a real fancy bottle of olive oil!
you can find olive oil for really cheap, to the super fancy bottles which are usually about 30 bucks.
so, buy a big fancy bottle of olive oil, return it 20 minutes later at the same damn store, and viola! gift card!

BUT: usually they'll ask you why you returned it (already have some at home, blah blah blah, any lame excuse works), and most stores DO NOT accept returns w/out the receipt for anything more than 20$ (i learned the hard way...)

Anywway, it's a really easy and it get's free beer and you don't have to steal (which sometimes I have a big problem with, I'm kind of clumsy.) and It works almost everywhere

Really good idea!

I rather try all the alternatives before I boost from safeway or any grocery store

This probably has a better chance of working at groceries without the sophisticated returns database that Walmart has. For instance, I know from working at Kroger that they don't keep up with your information at all when you do a no receipt return, but they do have to ask a manager for anything over 15 bucks. They may write your name and phone number on a slip but it never goes anywhere. However, that doesn't mean the customer service workers aren't on to stuff like this. You're better off buying like two big bags of $7 candy or something that someone may actually buy (who really buys $20 olive oil?) so as to not be suspicious. Also, don't be dicks to the minimum wage workers. If you can tell they're onto you but they're trying to be nice, don't push it. I once let a girl return two $10 items I was sure she stole from another store, but I just did it because I didn't really care. Afterwards she said, "oh I forgot I have two more in the car, can I return those too?" Who "forgets" they have two more of the same item? Who buys 4 of the same item (they were an "as seen on TV" headset for your phone) and realizes they don't need it? A lot of the time the workers don't really care, but they don't want to get in trouble. If you get one that seems to be helping you out, don't push it like that.
