G'day everyone
I am so new to this and have noticed that other states have websites you can order holiday packages of food from and I am wondering if there is a site with goods approved by the IN prison system where I can arrange a food package to be sent to my mate as USP??? Would love to send my mate some yummy munchies for xmas so any help would be great!!
Thank you
I hope you and your loved ones are well and in good spirits
Jo

Unfortunetly you can not send packages to federal inmates. Magazine or newspapers from a publisher, books from a dealer or money is all that is allowed. You might want to send some extra cash for Nov or Dec since most commissaries carry seasonal items and the extra 100 phone minutes are available.

noname...what type of seasonal items? :p Like...fruitcake or something? I just never, in these past years, remember him speaking of seasonal items but thats cool. Just curious as to what kinds...

Wish we could send holiday packages! The first thing I'd pack is...MYSELF! :p

We could by like Hersey's Kisses different cookies maybe some type of summer sausage, each facility was different. Seems to be they had like a group of inmates from each unit that would submit a list of items and the warden picked maybe 6 or so to offer. I really didnt pay attention cause I did not go to commissary expect for stamps and hygiene items. Anyone else remember what we got in November and December that ususally wasnt available year round?
