As of April 2013 there are 47,548,694 of people receiving Food Stamps in America. According to statistics 1 in 7 people are on government assistance and getting food stamps.
The numbers are real!
This is the reality of today's world. Some families receives barely enough money to get by for the month BUT if you are a couponer well that is another story all together because in reality of you coupon and use food stamps your money will last longer and you will not have to worry about things as much. But there are so many different ways that if you are on assistance that it can help more!
YOU JUST HAVE TO BE A SMARTER SHOPPER!
Again I do not do this to make people extreme couponers I do this to help people become smarter shoppers.
Eminem once stated in a song : 'cause man, these God damn food stamps don't buy diapers! I love Eminem and his lyrics to his songs are real... but sorry to tell you Eminem you are wrong.
YOU CAN USE COUPONS AND YOUR EBT CARD!
YOU CAN USE COUPONS AND YOUR EBT CARD!
People on food stamps who are smart shoppers can buy diapers, toilet paper, and whatever else non food items that they need.
And I am about to show you how.
Mostly all stores accept coupons and take EBT cards. But what you need to start looking at if money is super tight is buying food items that will give you Money Off Coupons or Gift Cards!
*Note at some stores you will be responsible to pay the tax on the coupon. (I know that may not make sense) but it should be a few cents but if you are using several coupons it is still a savings.
It is also recommended to separate the food and non- food items.

Let's Take this Weeks CVS Ad.
They have Coke 12 packs on Sale 3 for $11.00
But you get back $1.00 ECB
That $1.00 can go towards CVS Wipes, Dish Soap, etc..
Next Weeks Ad at CVS
They have Lays Potatoe Chips on sale 2 for $6.00
BUT you get back $2.00 ECB
That $2.00 can go towards toilet paper rolls or
You can do this twice and spend $12.00 on (4) bags of Chips
BUT you will have $4.00 in ECB
And they will have Wisk on Sale for $4.99 that week
So after your ECB you will only pay $1.00!
You now have laundry Soap!
You can also do this at Walgreen's with the Register Rewards and the Points System. You can also do this at Publix when they have Gift Card Promotions. How about at Winn Dixie when you hear of Catalina's Printing. Last year Kraft has a Promotion when you buy certain KRAFT products you get a Catalina up to $10 for 10 products and they happened to have Kraft Mac and Cheese on Sale BOGO and there was a coupon out as well. You would pay about $12.00 for 10 boxes and get back a $10 Catalina!
But using coupons to begin with will help make those food stamps last much longer than they would without coupons.
Take today for instance scrap up your change sell your not so used baby items and get yourself $2.10 and buy (2) Tampa Tribune News Papers. You will not only get coupons but you will get a $2.00 off Deli Coupon to use on anything in the Deli Priced $2.00 or more. It is a profit. You just MADE money. You paid $1.00 plus tax for something and got a free $2.00 coupon.
