No Toy Donation Places This Year? - GoFuckYourself.com

96ukssob · 12-23-2008, 08:39 AM

I could of sworn that there was a place around where Im at that took toy donations, but I cant seem to find anything, even at the mall. Last year I was in LA and it was a lot easier, but this year, I went over to two malls yesterday by where Im at and there was nothing.

The only thing ive seen around is the teenage kids ringing a bell outside stores to collect money. I had a friend work for one years ago and she said that only about 60% goes to the charity, the rest is "expenses" and such.

Either way, thats kind of lame there is no toy drop off place. KB Toys is going out of business and they have a lot of stuff on sale that I was going to pick up and drop off, but no luck. Just trying to do something nice is a headache now a days

I found a drop off box at a Walmart the other day. Might be worth checking.

I was just there on Sunday and nothing outside or inside. I had to make a run at 1am to pick up some things and figured i would check.

I did see a box at Kmart a few days ago, but it was just a big box outside that had like two stuffed animals, and a plastic bag. Id rather give it to some place more secure... or at least thats inside
