Good for the Salvation Army. I'm glad that they weren't stuck in an entitlement mindset. Here's to hoping this prompts them to look for many new and innovative fundraising methods.

Over the years, I have walked by the red Salvation Army bucket and the bell ringer more times than I have stopped and made a donation.

This year, I have stopped EVERY time and dropped some bills into the bucket. In fact, Saturday I got my haircut, heard the bell ringer off in the distance and walked 100 yards or so and dropped a Five in the bucket.

I can see why the Salvation Army is doing better this year, even without Target... I'm sure there are many more people like me.

"A lot of us don't carry a lot of cash on us anymore," Press said. "It can be an embarrassment to not put some money in the kettle."

What a crock of unadulterated crap! This is so lame!

I notice plenty of empty parking space at our local Target stores as I drive by to take my money to more Christmas-friendly merchants.
