[QUOTE="Jabberwockey, post: 702458, member: 18238"] Not knowing the rules of that particular state, here is a basic rundown. If he receives a state tip (monthly pay) that is designed, although usually poorly, to cover basic cosmetics as well as writing paper. Missouri gives offenders $7.50 per month, $8.50 if they have their high school diploma/HISET. On a weekly basis, offenders receive a bar of soap and a roll of toilet paper. Realistically, most of what the canteen sells is luxury items such as soda, candy bars, chips, snack cakes, and various other junk food. If you want him to have phone minutes, if they use the J-Pay system, then buy them yourself. Otherwise I can pretty much guarantee you he's buying mostly junk food and useless crap with the money you send. [/QUOTE]
