Do you give spare change to the Santa's that ring bells outside of stores?

I've never done it before although I've wanted to (never had spare change on me), and I've always wondered if people actually really do donate.
 
I don't because I never really know where the money is going too exactly. If I want to donate to a cause I rather person give it to the needing rather then having a middle man who claims to be giving the donating when really it ends up only being a percentage.
 
No. you could say its a bad thing but do you REALLY know that the creepy looking guy in the Santa hat is really gonna give all that money to the salvation army or "needy children" ? Ya, It could be official but you never know when he takes that bucket in his car that maybe he'll take like half of it..
So I kind of stray from that kind of thing.
 
no, i never have money on me

but i do wish they could stop with all the ringing
 
Its usually a $5 dollar bill! I help where I can! I had a friend the other day say that any one can dress as a Santa & ask for money but the way I see it is if they have to dress up as Santa & ask for spare change then the least I can do is share a bit of what I have.

Merry Christmas!
