I lived in Nixa for 6 months, the thrift store there had really nice things at good prices , I get back to Monett and after a huge electric bill ask for a voucher for $25 dollars to by food. I called before I went and they said it was fine to come on up and said it had been a whole year when they gave me my last voucher. But when I got there and handed my electric bill to them they went and called Liberty Electric and said that someone had been paying on the bill and come back when my Electric bill was higher, what they don't know is I had to work out a payment plan with Liberty because I could not pay the whole bill last month and the only way I can pay is with the $225.00 dollars I get on my benefits card which can either buy food or it will pay on either your electric bill or phone bill or food. I had to use the whole $225.00 for electric so they wouldn't cut off my electric, were I could had bought $225.00 worth of food. I have never been so humiliated when she said she would not help me out with food. Sorry that I had to pay the electric so I guess I will go without food this month but at least I will starve to death rather than freeze to death. Yes, the people are very rude,these so called Holy rollers !! The girl that said no weights about 300lbs. so I don't think she has missed many meals!!!!
