The requests at the check out counter never bother me. I think it is a wonderful way to raise money for organizations. As a previous poster said...it's a reminder.
No one needs to be embarrassed by saying no...it is by far the least pressure ...unlike someone ringing your doorbell and asking for a donation...that to me is hard to say no to.
I frankly have never even thought about what the person in front of me in line is doing. I am busy emptying my cart, looking at the strategically placed magazines and definately not watching to see if someone is donating to a cause.
