Ernie's, you suck. I don't give many one-star reviews, but I feel this is warranted. Read on, and I…read morewill explain why.
This is a comfort stop for Motorcoaches such as Greyhound, Trailways, etc. I was one of those people. I wanted to get something to drink, and a little snackie-poo for the road. I get up to the cashier, and they say, "NO EBT!" Wait, what, no EBT?? Are you kidding me??? All I have is EBT. I'm sure there are a TON of people who only have EBT as their method of payment. I felt discriminated against, because I am positive I am not the only person to have EBT as their only payment method. I mean, really?? There's nothing like having to take the walk of shame to put your stuff back.
I feel it's important to use this platform as a means of change. Please, make EBT a payment method. Maybe Ernie doesn't care what their poor patrons have to say, but it sure feels like it.
There are some great things I can say about this place, but until they make it so everyone can pay, then the stars stay as-is. To clarify, this was my second visit to Ernie's, and they didn't have EBT as a method of payment. I thought maybe it was a one-off, but when I came back and the no EBT sign was still up, I thought, "maybe this is how they do things."
Ernie's, you need to make this right. I hope when I come back next year, you will be accepting EBT. Until then, the single, lonely star will stay! (And I'm sure you wouldn't want to be responsible for a star's loneliness, would you??)
