They claimed it was an insurance issue and didn't want to be responsible for patrons that got hurt while "avoiding" or "donating". Bottom line (coming from a management of retail for over 20 years) Big corporations and little corporations (if there is such a thing left) do not care about the little people or how it effects them. =(<br /><The Misadventures Of Mehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03346874761288461465noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10088544.post-18382604717011983422009-06-01T02:19:58.631-04:002009-06-01T02:19:58.631-04:00Please give Jan a hug for us.. we don't understand...Please give Jan a hug for us.. we don't understand why some things happen.. :(Huskee and Hersheyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15284037178971952418noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-10088544.post-19321181776995853852009-06-01T01:06:28.483-04:002009-06-01T01:06:28.483-04:00I'm sowwy to heaw that..so unfaiw..so many things ...I'm sowwy to heaw that..so unfaiw..so many things change and not fow the bettew.

Corporate doesn't know anything about the local merchants and the communities that they try to set up rules. <br />I don't understand the reasoning behind this. If there are organizations soliciting and you don't want to contribute just be nice and say not at this time. I wonder if some have complained, that is because they are cheap and don't want to support any good cause.
