Get Double the Fresh Fruits and Vegetables

Double Up Food Bucks helps you get twice the amount of fresh fruits and vegetables. If you receive SNAP benefits, then you’re automatically eligible for Double Up Food Bucks! Here’s how it works:

  • 1
    Use your SNAP/EBT card to purchase fresh fruits and vegetables at participating locations.
  • 2

    The cashier will give you a coupon for the same amount you just spent on fresh fruits and vegetables, up to a $10 value each time you check out.

  • 3

    Then you can use that coupon the next time you purchase fresh fruits and vegetables. For example, spend $6.45 today and receive a $6.45 coupon to use later.
