SNAP/EBT & the Double Up Food Bucks Program (DUFB)
If you have a SNAP card our market will double your spending ability. You decide how much you want off your card (say $20) and we will match that amount for free with DUFB tokens (so you get $40 to spend)!
SNAP tokens are wooden red tokens and come in $1 increments. These tokens can be used on items you would purchase at a grocery store (bread, eggs, honey, meats, dairy, produce, baked goods, seeds & plants for human consumption, etc. No hot prepared foods, coffee, roasted chile or non-food items). Double Up Food Bucks tokens are silver and come in $2 increments. These are the extra tokens given for free and are only good for fresh produce, seeds and plant starts meant for human consumption. Check out the videos below for more information on Double Up Food Bucks or check out their website HERE. To learn more about how to sign up for SNAP benefits in New Mexico go HERE. |
