Seth Ferranti on Federal Prison Commissaries

I was just reading this article about what is available to purchase in a Federal US prison. It's written by Seth Ferranti a self-published author serving time in a Federal prison for drug-related charges.
Hygiene items are available too. Everything is in economy size, like the type you would buy at the airport. Athletic clothes like gray Russell Sweat suits are $31.20 a set and Russell mesh shorts are $14.30. I guess there are good options for prisoners who don’t want to wear the prison-issued brown khaki uniforms all the time. But most prisoners can’t afford these Big Willie items, as the average wage for prison jobs is about $15 a month.
