Yes you can...I did the last 2 years at Wal-Mart.
Pumpkins, Holiday Gift Baskets, and Special Occasion Cakes
Pumpkins are edible and eligible for purchase with SNAP benefits. However, inedible gourds and pumpkins that are used solely for ornamental purposes are not eligible items.
Gift baskets that contain both food and non-food items, are not eligible for purchase with SNAP benefits if the value of the non-food items exceeds 50 percent of the purchase price.
Items such as birthday and other special occasion cakes are eligible for purchase with SNAP benefits as long as the value of non-edible decorations does not exceed 50 percent of the purchase price of the cake.
You can theoretically buy any product with a nutrition label at establishments that accept EBT. Since some Isagenix products have nutrition labels, they would be eligible if they were sold where EBT is accepted. Products with supplement facts labels would NOT be eligible.
However, Isagenix products are only supposed to be sold on associates' websites, and these websites are not currently set up to accept EBT.
So the answer is "no", but hopefully it's only a temporary "no" since Isagenix is healthy and it would be a better use of tax money over candy bars and other junk food that have nutrition labels and are therefore also eligible.
I work for DES and if you are homeless and marked so in the system you can use your SNAP / Food stamps to purchase pizza from Dominos and Golden Corral we are waiting for more restaurants to add at this time. This is due to a lawsuit
yes its like a credit card, you can use it the same anywhere just as you would the paper stamps, just let the cashier know that its ebt and you will be ok.
Walmart will sell you a 12 pack of Red Bull for around $20.00 including tax on your EBT.

Yes you can get formula with food stamps. If you are eligible for food stamps and have a baby needing formula, you should also be eligible for WIC, which stands for Women and Infant Children.
WIC provides Federal grants to States for supplemental foods, health care referrals, and nutrition education for low-income pregnant, breastfeeding, and non-breastfeeding postpartum women, and to infants and children up to age five who are found to be at nutritional risk. See the link below to see if you may qualify and how to apply.
Yes they do accept EBT at costco my sister used hers a million times
Yes. the card is good for ALL food products, expect pre made items like sandwiches in the deli.
Almost anywhere that takes debit/credit cards will take EBT cards, but if you are using it for anything other than basic food, the purchase would come off the CASH side of the card, not the food stamps. Papa Murphy's does allow you to use food stamps for their pizzas because they are not cooked when you buy them.
In general, you cannot buy:
Alcohol
Tobacco
Hot Food Items (Such as a hot steak & cheese sub)
Non-Food items (such as coffee filters, for example)
With very few exceptions, it covers any kind of food, beverage, candy, etc.
