Can anyone recommend a good Tennessee whiskey rub?

Has anyone tried the Historic Lynchburg one?

Side note: are they ever going to change the name of those cities? 😬

2nd side note: why tf are these cases of spices snap/ebt eligible?!? And these were 2 out of 3 total eligible items on the entire page

@ExecutiveFunction404 The SNAP/EBT eligibility is because Amazon and Walmart were quick to sign up for the pilot program for online food delivery/purchase options. Sort of ironic that both of them pay such low wages that many of their employees qualify for those benefits. Closer and closer to the post slavery 'company store' mentality.

@Lucky188

The items that were shipped as one unit only were not snap/ebt eligible (except one). Aside from that one, it was just cases of spices.

That's where my confusion lies. The fact that someone can buy cases of spices via ebt, just not a single jar 🙃

@ExecutiveFunction404 @Lucky188 Back when I was a single mother living on financial aid, I bought everything I could in bulk. I only got "paid" twice a year, so my lump sums were high, but I had to live off of 4 to 8 thousand a year (rent was free, had to pay electric). Money was so tight I'd compare the number of sheets on toilet paper rolls and number of loads in laundry soap to see how long it would last for everything I bought. I wouldn't have made it without bulk.

@tippitiwichet @Lucky188

You def stretched your money that way! That's the way to do it, if you can. I've always said that people with less money typically spend so much more on essentials than those who are more comfortable. They usually can't spend the little money received on bulk items, which just makes everything cost more, especially if you can only shop at a corner bodega.

@ExecutiveFunction404 @Lucky188 This is true, I could only do the bulk thing because of how financial aid is set up. I recognized and appreciated that I could do that, and there have been times a lack of transportation meant I could only use a corner store. I didn't have internet at home either, and had to shop at school. It's a damn shame how many barriers some people have between them and basic needs.
