People used to sell the stamps for cash and then buy cigs and booze and lottos.
Or they buy basics with the stamps and spend their minimum wage on cigs and booze and lottos.
I honestly dont know how they abuse it with the card. I guess theres some sort of black market going on or whatever.
Same thing. The going rate was roughly $100 FS for $65-75 cash value. They swipe roughly $100 or slightly over, so like $101.35 or some random crap and then give back some cash. I used to work in a shop way back in the early 90's that did this with paper food stamps and know a few shop owners that still do this. They've cracked down on this a lot in recent years though.
