PS if you're in this boat, Thrive Market now accepts EBT and provides a free membership for folks getting EBT

But

It doesn't have fresh produce

And it has higher quality food (which often costs more)

Thrive membership is free for folks who get EBT, although of course some of the electrolyte mixes etc aren't SNAP eligible

Here's the application for free membership, FWIW I get mine as a "low income family" (of one)

thrivemarket.com/givingapp

Thrive Membership is now also free for at least a year for EBT card holders

And FWIW I also have a free membership due to being on disability; I applied under "low income families" and explained in the comments and they approved me no problem (YMMV)

Also while I have the executive functioning, here's their free membership application. They didn't require income verification when I applied, it was great

If you feel up to it, this is the most current application link, they might have updated the process of some since you tried before, though I can make no promises about that obviously.
