Grand Union issued these low-denomination food stamp scrip notes in the mid-1960s as change-making instruments within their stores — a practical workaround for the fractional-cent problem that arose when federal food stamp coupon values didn't align neatly with purchase totals. Rather than losing the difference, participating retailers issued their own scrip redeemable against future purchases, keeping the transaction balanced and the customer in the store.
The dual branding — Grand Union and Grand Way, the company's discount division — suggests this scrip circulated across both retail formats from a single print run.
