Shouldn't your purchases at Salvation Army, Goodwill, and CHKD count as partial charitable donations?

You are supporting their missions by giving them money for something that didnt cost them much, if anything.

They have the nerve to ask you to round up and give them your change when you buy something. THey ask if you would like to help the mission. I think to myself: I am helping your mission by buying this stuff!

@AmericanAvenger That part is annoying, but then corporations like Walmart and Kroger also ask customers to donate.

The difference - it is unlikely that corporations give any of their own money to charity UNLESS it somehow benefits them in the end.
