Did you know that you can get EBT museum discounts in PA? We’ve found that a Pennsylvania food stamps card can do some incredible things! We’ve written up lists like this for almost every state and Pennsylvania definitely has more to offer than most.
Sure, we’ll tell you about the usual things like take-and-bake pizza…. but we’ll also tell you how to use your EBT card to get cheap admission to museums and $5/month Internet service!
7 Things You Need to Know
I’ve been updating this list for years now, and I’ve learned quite a bit along the way. There are some things that many people don’t know about PA food stamps!
- Apply for PA food stamps online. I’ve had many people tell me that the only reason they don’t have food stamps is because they’re too embarrassed to go into the office. You can apply online and skip the lines!
- You can buy fruit trees and gift baskets. No joke – this is all part of the actual federal FoodShare law. Here’s a list of unexpected things you can actually buy with your PA food stamps funds.
- Shop smart. You may be able to get more food for your money at farmer’s markets and You-Pick Strawberry Fields!
- You may be eligible for more funds from your PA food stamps. Groceries are expensive. It’s tough to make ends meet when you have, on average, $1.40 per meal. That’s why we dug into the law to find ways that our readers could legally get even more food stamps funds. Surprisingly, there are a lot of ways you can increase your food stamps budget!
- You can get cash back (it’s legal)! With smart shopping techniques, you can put cash back in your pocket when you shop with EBT. Here’s how.
- You can shop at many places. Some retailers, such as Farmer’s Markets, often offer double-up programs where you can get twice as much food as you pay for. Bulk retailers like Costco also accept PA food stamps. Here’s a list of places you can use foodstamps.
- You can use your Pennsylvania EBT card in other states! Not only can you shop in other states, you can also get EBT discounts in other states. All of our state lists use green titles to indicate what venues accept out-of-state EBT cards for discounts.

Get discounted admission to 30+ destinations with a PA food stamps card!
If you receive PA food stamps, then you can get discounted admission to over 30 awesome museums throughout Pennsylvania. We’ve organized the list alphabetically by city for your convenience.
Both the Access Admission Program by Art-Reach and the Museums for All Program provide discounted admission for PA food stamps recipients. However, there are differences between them.
Access is local and for PA food stamps recipients only. Museums for All partners accept EBT cards from all 50 states! We’ve used green titles to distinguish the Museums for All partners.
It is important to realize that you cannot pay for admission with your PA food stamps card. You will show the EBT card to receive the discount but you will need to pay the remaining admission price, if any, in cash or with a credit/debit card.
