Exactly my feelings. No need to feel obliged to give in any way. It's your business, not anyone else's. Like the folks who "can" on street corners, or the HS football team raising money outside of Sams, if you want to give you do, if not you don't. Easy enough. And no one knows your personal situation - maybe you can't give, maybe you just gave, maybe you don't feel strongly about that charity, maybe you don't trust the organization collecting to get a fair amount to the charity, maybe you want to give directly, maybe you're just cranky and not in the mood. Doesn't matter, it's your business and not anyone elses. So just say no thanks.
