I donated today in a very crowded field.

The Villages Daily Sun ran an article about One Blood Center's efforts here in the Villages and must have drawn a lot more people into give.

I did confirm, unfortunately, that they are doing away with the gift cards. Blanca told me this. They might appear in special promotions. I am deeply disappointed by this but what can I do?

The blanket will be good to keep Beau warm.

Battleship was the movie but the DVD/Blu-Ray is older so it did not play very well. I have seen it a few times before though.

Seems today at least you can only get Walmart gift cards. All of the other choices were "not available" or something to that affect.

Have been getting these rewards for years from One Blood and they will be missed.

I wonder what the reasoning was in cutting these??

Most of the time it was these Fandango rewards. One Blood | Fandango Rewards (http://fandangorewards.com/clients/one-blood/) I could not really use them with no Fandango movie theater close to me. The nearest is in Leesburg and then Ocala.

Other Florida Blood Services seem to still have rewards offered. SunCoast Blood Bank - Live Here. Give Here. Stays Here. (http://www.scbb.org/)

They haven't even had the courtesy to reply to any of my emails. Have they replied to yours? They could at least explain their reasoning.

No response from them to the couple of e-mails I sent.
