Day 263: 50 cents to St. Jude's Hospital

Even though I am not at all low on toilet paper, I noticed at Target today (where I was buying dry erase markers for school--a donation in its own right) that if I purchased a multi-pack of Cottonelle for $10.99 that five percent of the purchase cost would be donated to St. Jude's Hospital. Of course, I reasoned, that I would eventually need toilet paper, so I made the purchase early. I think this type of giving is a great idea. I would definitely switch brands (even if I wasn't engaging in this year-long experiment) in order to give 50 cents to an organization like St. Jude's.
