Not sure where to put this but I didnt want to start a new thread-
In reference to MC canteen:
http://www.sjso.org/divisions/media/InmateHandbook.pdf
CANTEEN: An inmate Canteen service is available. The Canteen services will be going through some major changes in the near future. Those inmates with money deposited in their account may purchase Canteen items once weekly. A shopping list will be provided weekly for each inmate who wishes to order Canteen.
Inmates will be allowed to spend a maximum of $30.00 on food weekly. There is no money limit on other items including clothing. Canteen items will be packaged and delivered to those receiving Canteen. Limits will be placed on items and designated on the Canteen slip. No trading, exchanging or refunding allowed.
Money can only be used for Canteen purchases. Transfers to immediate family, Attorney’s or Bonding agencies may be arranged by written request.
Inmate money can only be received by money order, government check, and checks from other institutions. We do not accept cash, personal checks or payroll checks. Money left for inmates Canteen Fund must be received two (2) business days prior to the scheduled Canteen day for the money to be available for purchases that week.
Money left by inmates, after their release, is mailed to them if an address is left as to where to send the money.
Be sure to review purchase requests on Canteen form before turning in as no exchanges or refunds will be made.

Regular Canteen will not be available to inmates in 23-Hour Lockdown and/or Disciplinary Confinement. A modified Canteen list for hygiene items or stationary will be available.
Scheduled canteen days will be posted in each block.
All food items purchased from the Canteen will be consumed in the cell or dayroom. Food items will not leave the cellblock.
If a 23-Hour Lockdown occurs after a Canteen slip has been filled out and before delivery of the order, the order will be delivered on the next regular Canteen day for that cellblock. If an inmate is on a DR or 23-hour lockdown, they will only receive hygiene items. If the lockdown occurs the day the Canteen sheets were printed or the day Canteen is passed out, they do not receive food items. Inmates in cellblock fifteen (15) are only eligible for non-food items on Canteen day. There will be no playing cards for this area.
CANTEEN - INDIGENT: To be eligible, inmate must have less than $1.00 (one dollar) in his/her account for the previous fourteen (14) days.
The following materials will be dispensed once weekly;
Hygiene kit to include comb/toothbrush/toothpaste/deodorant;
One pencil;
Two sheets paper;
One stamped envelope.
Tennis shoes will be issued, upon request, one (1) time during incarceration.
If the indigent inmate violates the recreational procedure for the wearing of tennis shoes, his/her tennis shoes will be removed.
If the indigent inmate receives money in their account after the tennis shoes are issued; the cost of the tennis shoes will be deducted from their Canteen account.
I heard MC say that she is on 23 hour lockdown, and that she has a lots of food and plays cards...
We have bigger problems to figure out, but just wanted to share.
I think these are just the complete tapes! I tried to listen from work. About mid way through the first one Misty is telling Chelsea something about someone she cares for may get hurt. Hard to listen at work so I will listen again when I get home.
