No, I would like your multimillion dollar employer to, though...

To preempt the inevitable: no, companies do not take your donations and then use them as a tax write off to somehow profit. That's a myth. That's not how taxes work. Those donations are yours and you can claim them on your taxes. Yes, really.

I always ask if there's a price match from the company which there often isn't.

The few times they say yes, I follow up with asking if there's a cap on the match.

If there's a match and no cap, I'll usually donate.

But 1,000,000 fuck nos to donation if there isn't a match or if they are capping that shit.

I said that to my wife at Petsmart just yesterday. They asked on the register to donate to some pet charity and I said, "why can't Petsmart just use some of their bajillion dollars in profits to pay for it? Why are they asking me to give money to their charity when I've already paid them money?"

Me who exclusively uses self checkout and never does this (in no small part due to the no button being bright red.)

"do i look like i have 5$?"

Yes, I'll donate it to my savings. Thanks for asking
