Sharpshooter
Has anyone else noticed that all the TV advertised charities ALL seem to have come up with the same figure needed to help them do their good work. Don't get me wrong on this... They are all worthy of donation, but they all want just $19.00 a month to save a child from cancer or starvation or to do good work for Vet organizations. Amazingly the ASPCA only is asking for $18.00 a month for their work. (Guess they felt humanity needed the higher rung on the ladder). Where does this figure come from? I'm sure they would take what ever we were to give but does this "just pennies a day " number have some kind of significance? Could it be like the pricing on an item being $19.99 instead of $20 even, has been proven in studies to actually help the sale of items? I noticed that a lot are making their pitches for the end of the year.
