I am disabled.

I collect a monthy disability benefit.

I also receive $145 a month in SNAP benefits.

Luckily, I'm able to squeeze a penny till Lincoln farts — I can make the money go a long way — so I have no complaints about the amount I get, unlike some folks I know.

One problem in the time of a pandemic is the inability to order groceries for pickup or delivery, which means I'm forced to enter a store.

Walmart is the exception, I can order for pickup using SNAP — but the lead time is currently about 6 days, which means that they'll likely be out of stuff and I'll have to enter the store anyway to search for replacements.

And so it goes! :S

 

ETA: During the months of March and April, NYS upped my SNAP $49 per month, total $98 more than usual.
