A "Michigan Credit Card" is known in the state of Michigan as a "Bridge Card" or EBT card. Its food stamps in a Debit Card format. Due to the states current employment issues, many people, including those just out of high
school who have never even attempted to work a
day in their life but already have a
child or 2 and one on the way, obtain Michigan Credit Cards. The cards accounts are "filled" on particular days throughout the month, and if you go shopping on these certain days, you
will be able to discern those using their Michigan Credit Card from those who actually work for a living. Simply give a cursory examination of the grocery carts' contents, and watch the shopping habits of the shoppers themselves. The Michigan Credit Card users grab many of one or several items, usually national brand items, without checking price, etc.. People who work for a living
will carefully select those items which they can afford, looking for sale or marked-down items, denying themselves "extras" such as
ice-
cream, ho-ho's, and
Mountain Dew 24 packs (all of which can be found in a MCC users cart) instead buying hamburger and other essentials. These essentials are usually the store brand. Although Michigan Credit Cards are for grocery shopping, MANY gas stations and
party stores accept Michigan Credit Cards.
