At the checkout, I only donate to the "Fuzzybuddy-gets-rich" Fund.

If I want to give to a charity, I'll give. But I don't like the begging at the cash register every time I buy something. Most of the time, you have very little info as to what you're donating to. What exactly is a "Wild Life Fund"? I renewed my car's registration and had to go through and click off about a dozen charities, which I did not want to donate to. Yet, if I walked around the store asking for donations, the manager would have called the cops on me.
I don't like those donation apps at checkout.

I agree. Pennsylvania has gone overboard listing all of the charities asking for donations.

I don't like those either. It seems like they pop up on literally every screen these days.
 
I don't mind them unless I'm annoyed at the store for other reasons. At the Giant grocery store the self-checkout experience is awful so I feel grumpy about the donation option. But at Wegman's the self-checkout experience is nice, friendly, respectful and helpful, so I'll just quietly groan and click yes on the donate to the local food bank or school supplies (those seem to be the two that they alternate between).
 
I just started noticing this. We donate to 3 charities monthly. We also will give to other organizations like children, animal groups that care for them and anyone in the area that is in dire need. When I checkout at the register, sometimes I will give up the change if it’s under 50 cents. We also donate to the church offering plate and a monthly donation for a charity the church supports called “Faith Promise.”
 
Is Jelly Roll under 300 lbs yet? I heard he is going to do a Pro Wrestling event soon.
He also is sponsoring The Titans, showed up at spring camp?

I was recently in a Moto - Mart. They wanted $18 for a bag of beefy chews.
I set the bag back off the check out of the counter.
 
I always ask, "Will your Outlet match all of the customer's donations to this charity?"

If not, I give them The Heisman.
