Tips for first time family Members
If this is
your first time to visit a loved one in a State facility, most have a machine
that turns your free world money into a debit card of sorts. Most visitation
check points will make you aware of the money conversion, but not that the
initial card costs you $2 dollars and that machine ONLY accepts a $5 dollar
bill. So always make sure the money you plan to spend on vending machines in
visit includes a $5 dollar bill, unless you save your card. Most are reloadable
and you only have to purchase it once, but I always make sure I have a $5 just
in case. If you keep and re-use your card it's also a good idea to write your
name on it in a sharpie pen. Just in case it was dropped or misplaced. They all
look the same unless you do this. They keep those pens at checkpoint and are
usually happy to oblige.
