Many people surviving on EBT can't afford vehicles/insurance/gas - stuff EBT doesn't cover. It's unclear to me how they'll afford the costs of delivery since EBT won't cover that either, but more options can't hurt.
- MandieD 3y agoOnce per week grocery delivery would be far less expensive than the cost of owning a car, and still probably less than the round-trip cab ride.
- EliRivers 3y agoPerhaps the cost of delivery of those groceries will be cheaper than the cost of owning and running a vehicle. Some sources give that cost as many hundreds of dollars a month. It doesn't seem unreasonable that having groceries delivered once a week might be less.
- autoexec 3y agoBeing able to have food delivered is an important option to have! I'm surprised that the pandemic hasn't made that clear to everyone. Some folks are going to need food delivered at some point in their lives. Poor people too. I'd much rather have people who are struggling get delivery if they can manage it than have them go into the grocery store when they know they're infected, or when they've got a vulnerable person they'd risk bringing disease home to.
