There are a few places that ask to round up for some charity.
The only place I round up is when I shop at the local charity thrift store where I know where the money goes.
Do they say the round up is going to a charity?
Yes
Don’t be casual with the pinpad - I donated 5 bucks last week because I hit the key next to the key I wanted by accident...
You’re right about zero accountability
They give it to some NGO/Charity where the CEO probably makes $750K per year and they all are woke.
No, I don’t. I have an investment account linked to my debit card so when I use it, it rounds up into my investment account. Charity begins at home. ;)
No.
My bank has that feature on my debit card. What it does is it puts the remainder in your savings account.
This sounds much different though. I’ve never seen that and I use the McDonalds app often for work breakfast.
A few years ago, I paid for something at a Dollar General store in Alamogordo, NM. The clerk asked me to round up. I asked what it was for. The clerk said, “To help kids to learn to read.” I said, “I thought that was what taxpayers pay teachers to do with their property taxes funding schools.”
At a guess, I would say the money goes to the Ronald McDonald House. One of the few corproate charities that actually does what they say it will do.
My guess would be that it is a donation to Ronald McDonald House. In the old days they had buckets including at the drive thru where you could drop your change. Now with everyone using cards, this is the way they do it.

You hope it goes where they say it goes.
“ Do they say the round up is going to a charity?”
A lot of times these places will say, “do you want to round up for breast cancer.” Or some other thing without stating what the money is actually for
Round Up is for weeds and brush.
Was some computer genius a few years back. Took advantage of bank computer calculations which would round its numbers to nearest penny...but the real number had a value slightly more, or less more than just up to the penny. He programmed the banks computer to send the very small excess amount to his personal account. IIRC he had accumulated millions of dollars before he was discovered.
Maybe mcDonalds takes our round up pennies and sends them to Antifa, or other organized fraud charities?
Selling crappy burgers is bad enough. Now they want charity?
Did you or a loved one spray or was sprayed with Roundup?
Bayer has already agreed to have to pay $11 billion
in personal injuries settlements and trial verdicts
amid claims that their flagship herbicide product
Roundup causes non-Hodgkin’s Lymphoma.
Same here.
Unlike Goodwill they actually are a charity and they do quite a bit of good quietly. When several families lost everything when their apartment complex caught on fire the manager came down, opened the store and let them get clothes so they had something to wear.
Actually clothing the needy. Yeah, I round up.
McDonald's? National Diabetes Foundation.
No Office Space meme of Michael Bolton yet?
