"Give me a book of stamps. Give me 10 to 20 dollars."

Commissary day at the medium

"On commissary day, at the medium, they're gonna do everything they can in their power to make sure you get a full bag. Because you might get locked down and not get commissary for another couple of weeks or months, right?"

Commissary day at the low

"When I went to the low, it was almost like a on-purpose disrespectful thing. You have $150 spend, they're going to put $70 in there, not even give you your full commissary."

"Dare you to say something about it, and what they want is they want you to pay them."

"They wanted to extort you for your commissary spend and they would at the low."

What I said (RYAN STATEMENT)

  • At the medium, commissary workers tried to fill your bag to your full spend.
  • At the low, a $150 spend could come back as $70 in the bag.
  • The price to get it right was a book of stamps or $10 to $20.
