edit: you should also know that you should just donate directly to the charity, but I thought that was common knowledge

Apparently the idea that it gives corporations a tax break is a misconception, rather, YOU get the tax break! edit: yes you have to have receipts, thought that was common knowledge and didn’t think i needed a disclaimer

Thanks to @TheRealKuni@piefed.social, @iAmTheTot@sh.itjust.works, and @Zorcron@piefed.zip for that info!

edit: sorry for posting this, leaving it up so it’s not a “dirty delete”

    I fucking hate the pressure it puts on you to look like a good person at these check outs. Wtf like I don’t donate to shit unless I look into it and can see if it’s some shady organization or not. Like I was checking out the other day and the cashier said “want to donate to charity to save our oceans” without saying the charity name or anything so I said no but felt awful.
