Can You Use Coupons with Ebt?

Yes, Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) clients may use cents-off coupons issued by a manufacturer or store. In some states where the sale of food items is taxed, sales tax may need to be charged on the amount paid with the cents-off coupon (not the cost of the food itself).
