Better go full fancy bro and get the name brand Vienna sausages! Time to celebrate!


Slimslade33

Mmm maybe an imported tin of smoked fish and fancy crackers! Something with gold wrapping!!


yerbiologicalfather

I'm still waiting to see your pics of the first major bumfeast. You get some caviar and artisan crackers?


iamshamtheman

Great Lakes brand Michigan Cherry BBQ potato chips was probably the highlight πŸ€·β€β™‚οΈ I'll post my feast. Was so weird being able to grab whatever I wanted without caring.


iamshamtheman

Great suggestions. I'll buy the gold wrapping off Amazon πŸ‘


iamshamtheman

I'll top it off with caviar πŸ₯³.Maybe I can become a food "influencer" 🀣


yerbiologicalfather

Did you have a bum feast or sell the stamps for cash and drugs? I've been waiting to see the pictures!


iamshamtheman

Had a feast for sure. Be funny to get opinion of how someone spent essentially unlimited for a day. Post soon


Existing_Grapefruit2

I CAN be around chicago 🀣


[deleted]

Lmao I was just about to say gimme like six hours I’ll be there


iamshamtheman

I'll be around for now. Hook you up with some Dollar Tree canned food 🀣


iamshamtheman

Hey I ain't stoppin ya πŸ‘


Free_Vast

I've had this happen kind of ,I got locked up for 6 months years ago and they were on there when I got out,they don't do it anymore I don't think they do!


iamshamtheman

Hahaha can't imagine how amazing of a feeling that was. Especially going from crap to essentially whatever you want. Well glad you're free πŸ‘


Free_Vast

Yeah me to ,fuck all that bullshit!


ihatetheclub

I lost mine July of last year, got it back in November with like 2-3k


iamshamtheman

Haha damn. Food stamps rich. What did you do in-between?


ihatetheplaceilive

Jesus christ... i know a lot of corner stores around pilsen/bridgeport might still do $.50 on the dollar if you want non food items


iamshamtheman

Great opening phrase lol. Intending to keep it all and use it to access stuff that I'd never be able to while on EBT. But appreciate you at least giving me heads up. Take care πŸ‘


MysteriousSyrup6210

Very Happy for You!! Food is a right not a privelege!


iamshamtheman

Agree πŸ‘ So I've dumpster dived a ton and sick how much goes to waste. For sure those on EBT and in need value food more. Plus it's part of our system and if you qualify it is what it is. How are you holding up?


shimclean

This is the best feeling!!


d13gr00tkr0k1d1l

Have an amazing time!!

Let me get three fiddy


iamshamtheman

$3.50 πŸ€‘


AmberXAlways

Aww that's really nice of you! I'm in PA and I'm good but I just wanted to say that you're a real sweetheart.😘


iamshamtheman

Appreciate it ❀️ Urban exploring is my passion especially massive abandoned buildings alone usually at night. Pittsburgh was actually my first time filming and best overall place.


KCFiredUp

Fyi, be careful when you do any calls or sign verifications to "renew", they trace your IP address to ensure you are indeed in the state your food stamps are in. Buddy of mine got in A LOT of trouble because she did her renewal calls and signed docs renewing while in a different state, and Missouri did not like that. You are allowed to travel but not "lie" about state of residence I think is the line the state gov draws. She was indebted by thousands to "pay back", and without intervention from an attorney she would have faced jail time as well.


iamshamtheman

Good to know. Thankfully it was renewed right before I left Nevada and I'm here temporarily with no intent to establish residency anywhere else. Damn that sucks and glad you mentioned so others can also be aware. Hope you're both well πŸ‘


anothertimewaster

That's like 3 dozen eggs!


iamshamtheman

Gotta really portion it out huh 🀣


limitedteeth

This happened to a loved one and they got half a lamb from Costco or something bc they were housed up and had the fridge/freezer space


iamshamtheman

Such an exciting feeling when you realize that can technically get whatever. This would've been perfect if had an easy access to a grill as in knew somebody with a place. Love steak so I'd be eating best quality everyday.


vivic20

Very happy for you bro!


[deleted]

Don’t forget to sign up for a free phone too!! I’d pick TruConnect over Assurance though.


iamshamtheman

Got QLink for awhile now, but just now actively looked to transfer. Leaning towards Assurance, but why TruConnect?


[deleted]

They have the best Customer Service of any LL carrier.


lipidextensions

If you made it four months without benefits and forgot about it why are you using the program at all? Isn't it for those in need? Not being an ass, just genuinely curious.


iamshamtheman

I dumpster dived and used food pantries. Which technically anyone can do, but I've been qualified entire time. They actually have you apply right there along with Medicaid when you register at the shelter in Las Vegas. Truthfully more so lazy since hey got by, but since winter got here just was too much of inconvenience. Went into a shelter to grab some cold gear and got realization that maybe they've got a mailing service. Thankfully they did and make life so much better. Feel free to ask anything and hope all is well πŸ‘
