    Not in Kentucky they have never got anything and I’m a senior 😊

      Thanks for bringing this up. It's important to be aware of the limitations of EBT in different states. Kentucky is currently focusing on grocery access for SNAP benefits. You can find more information about accepted retailers on the Kentucky Family and Children's Cabinet website. You can check -www.fns.usda.gov/snap-directory-entry/kentucky

      Is there anything I can help you with regarding your EBT card?

      Hey Lisa Lutz, you're right to be cautious! It's true that not all restaurants accept EBT, but the number is definitely growing. McDonald's is actually one of the biggest chains that recently started accepting EBT in some locations. You can check if your local McDonald's participates by using the USDA's SNAP Retailer Locator (www.fns.usda.gov/snap/online-purchasing-pilot). I hope this helps! If you have any other questions about EBT, feel free to ask.

    Is this true Or a lie there is know McDonald's in my area that takes food stamps

    • @freeforlowincome
      @freeforlowincome  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      I can't definitively tell you whether there's a McDonald's in your area that takes food stamps without more information. However, I can help you find out:
      Call McDonald's directly: The most accurate way to know if a specific McDonald's accepts food stamps is to call them directly. You can find the phone number of the McDonald's closest to you on their website or by searching online.
      Use the USDA SNAP Retailer Locator: The United States Department of Agriculture (USDA) has a SNAP Retailer Locator tool that allows you to search for stores that accept food stamps (SNAP) by zip code or address. This tool may not be available in Bangladesh, but you could try searching for McDonald's in your area and see if any results mention accepting food stamps.
      Ask your local food bank or social services agency: These organizations may have information about which stores in your area accept food stamps.
      It's important to note that even if McDonald's accepts food stamps in general, not all individual locations may participate in the program. It's always best to check with the specific McDonald's you want to visit before you go.

      What part of Upstate NY are you in? Any restaurants you've tried and loved (EBT or not)?

    This is nothing new they've been doing this for years in California. Not all fast food places except them. Only certain ones take them. Like not every McDonald's in a said city will except them. It might just be one or two.

    • @freeforlowincome
      @freeforlowincome  10 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for the clarification! I wanted to get people excited about the option, but I understand it's not universally available. Maybe my next video can dive deeper into specific store policies and locations.

    Yeah, because most folks with cash can’t afford to eat in these restaurants. Besides, folks need to treat EBT as cash and budget cash for restaurants.

    • @freeforlowincome
      @freeforlowincome  9 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're right, many people on EBT budgets need to carefully plan their restaurant spending. This video is meant to show some options available, but of course, responsible budgeting is key!

      I understand your concern. Hopefully, with more restaurants accepting EBT, it will help address food insecurity and provide more options for everyone.

    if your on the homeless prgram

    • @freeforlowincome
      @freeforlowincome  10 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Being in a homeless program makes you more likely to qualify for an EBT card, but it doesn't automatically guarantee it. Individuals in homeless programs should still apply for EBT benefits if they believe they might qualify. Many programs can assist with the application process. If you need any assistance feel free to knock...

    I'm sorry
    But if you're receiving food stamps to provide food for you and your family
    You should NOT be using them for over priced unhealthy fast food
    And you should not be eating out at restaurants with your free benefits
    You will get more out of your benefits by buying groceries at the store and cooking your food.
    This is crazy

    • @freeforlowincome
      @freeforlowincome  8 หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thanks for the feedback! It's true that cooking at home is often the most budget-friendly way to use benefits. This video was to inform folks about what their EBT card can be used for.

  • @kellykimball2099

    EBT should not be for junk foods!!!!
