Federal food aid changes ahead
With federal food aid set to end in November, many families are looking for ways to stretch their grocery dollars. I've reached out to Kroger, Meijer, Aldi and Walmart to see if they're offering any special discounts or assistance for those affected. I'll keep you updated as soon as I hear back.
