Day 309: about $1.20 to Children's Hospital

I was at Sam's Club today, and since the line to exit the store was long and painfully slow, I tossed some change into the vortex fountain from which all donations go to Children's Hospital. I do understand that Sam's cuts down on theft by having their employees look over your goods and cross-check them with your receipt on the way out, but I also think that part of good customer service involves making the transactions at the business as smooth as possible.  Waiting in line to exit a store is not my idea of smooth. Nonetheless, it was a minor inconvenience and gave me a chance to donate for the day. I guess I should stop complaining.
