According to jail records, Zimmerman, 28, has purchased $79.84 in items at the facility’s commissary, leaving a balance of $41.16. He’s allowed to buy items once a week.

The neighborhood watch volunteer’s shopping list included contact lens solution, Irish Spring soap, playing cards, puzzle books, Jolly Ranchers candy, two oranges and other snacks, the sheriff’s office said in a news release Thursday.
