When they got enough $$ they would go into the store and buy boxes of Little Debbie snack cakes - loaded with sugar. They were coming down off a high. Little Debbie is very popular with this population for this reason.

Interesting. I always loved Little Debbie products because they gave me a delicious "sugar high" - didn't know that it worked in reverse as well!
