Salvation Army get with the times

When I was younger and had a cash allowance from my parents of 2 bucks a week I would give to the salvation army everytime I came out of the store. It really made me feel good even as a child. I make many times more that 2 bucks a week now as an adult, but I never give to the salvation army. It is not becuase I do not want to, it is becuase I never ever have cash. I have direct deposit into a checking account as a lot of people do now a days, and it costs money to withdraw cash at most ATM's. I use my Check\debit card for everything, even gum at the corner store. How hard would it be to have the stores where the Salvation army usually sits ask each customer when they cash out if they would like to donate to the salvation army. I bet that a good percentage would say, yeah throw and extra 5 bucks down for me. I know that other charities do that and it seems to work well, why not the salvation army. They really need to get with the times. The get less and less money each year per capita and wonder why. This is the reason. Cash is a thing of the past. Plastic is the way people pay. Standing outside all day with a pot and a bell is just a wast of time. You might as well go collect bottles, you would end up with more cash.

What do you think?

This design is spectacular! You definitely know how to keep a reader amused.
Between your wit and your videos, I was almost moved to start my own blog (well, almost.
..HaHa!) Fantastic job. I really enjoyed what you had to say, and more than that, how you presented it.

Too cool!
