Indiana Grocery Store Can’t Process Food Stamp Payments Due To Govt. Shutdown<\/span><\/a><\/h3>\n<\/div>\n

We warned last week<\/a> what could happen if the government shutdown continues into February…<\/p>\n

If people are getting this restless already, what will things look like when tens of millions of Americans are suddenly cut off from their primary source of food money?<\/strong><\/em><\/p><\/blockquote>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

Well, as Daisy Luther reports from her Organic Prepper blo<\/a>g, it’s starting<\/strong><\/u>…<\/p>\n

We weren\u2019t expecting to see a loss of food stamp benefits until the end of January, but a grocery store in Indiana reported they are unable to process EBT payments.<\/strong><\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

In Clay City, Indiana, the local IGA discovered the problem last week.<\/strong> Initially, they thought it was a technical glitch.<\/p>\n

\u201cOur machines weren\u2019t taking any EBT cards and we didn\u2019t really know what was going on. We didn\u2019t know if it was a technical issue. And then we found out it was due to the government shutting down,\u201d\u00a0Tristen Malone said. (source<\/a>)<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

And although it\u2019s for a slightly different reason, The Red Lion store in York County, Pennsylvania has also had issues.<\/strong> New owners recently purchased the grocery store and sent in their application to accept government benefits before the shutdown occurred.<\/p>\n

\u201cRight now we\u2019re officially frozen because the government is shut down and we can\u2019t process our application.\u201d<\/p>\n

Tom Lohr is the new owner of D & K.<\/p>\n

He says they tried to get pre-approved for the license before the sale went through.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe tried to be proactive and start this in December, late November, early December , set up the new entities with the businesses it just has not worked out.\u201d<\/p>\n

Lohr purchased the business, but doesn\u2019t own the company name, so the license belongs to the original owners.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
