I’m 62 and work stocking shelves at a big supermarket. It’s physical work and the pay is low; my pension is small, so I applied for SNAP. At work I move heavy boxes from the back to the shelves, and often sale items are placed high or in corners. I can’t always pick the cheapest or the products closest to expiry—I just put stock where there’s space. After work I sometimes find what I bought is past its prime or not suitable, and returning items isn’t always easy. Some older people in the neighborhood can’t travel to better stores or pick fresh food because of transport and energy limits. Having SNAP on a card matters less when there’s nothing suitable nearby. People say “you’ve got benefits, that’s enough,” but when you can’t find the right food, the benefit is only a number. Points to discuss: How can SNAP be made more accessible for older adults? Do we need more community support like delivery or shopping help? Should store layouts and promotions consider vulnerable shoppers? #SNAPLife #SNAPVoices
