Hopefully not everyone thinks like you because it would be a shame if some little kid could not get his wheel chair or some girl could not get her leg braces bacause you did not get a free burger and refused to donate in future because you are mad about it.

If you think Tina S is being greedy and using charity for the wrong reason look at Phillis.

This letter reminds me of someone that wrote a letter a long time ago I think around Christmas 2006, where this person donated to "Toys for Tots" because she thought she would get a income tax return. When she found out that she could not file the thing to get an income tax return she wanted Toys for Tots to give her all the toys back. This person is too old to play with the toys, but with her attitude you would think she is not. :D Anyways I will post the link when I find it.

The fact that you had to be enticed to give a dollar for donations with the coupon says much about you. You will blow off Jerrys Kids because of this. Hope you never go through the hell they do daily.

When I make my donation, they let my kids put their names on a shamrock on the wall at the grocery store. Good enough for me, it's charity, I don't expect anything in return. My kids like the shamrocks because they come back to the store and find their names and are reminded that they gave to someone else.

It seems the king wasn't scary enough to spook you from pulling up in the first place, so why bring it up in your complaint at all?
"What a load of crap" is right. "Giving" under the condition of "What's in it for ME" is the wrong reason to be charitable in the first place.
Burger King isn't ruining anything for Jerry's Kids, they're giving their customers (people who buy their products in the first place) an added incentive to give. They clearly don't have to offer anything.

I read this complaint earlier today and am still shaking my head. You are still getting a free cheeseburger, you'll just have to buy one, and you probably will buy another. Although I do agree with you on one thing, the King is creepy looking. Are you one of the woman in the van that is trying to flatten the King??? I'm sure you won't get any support from anyone you tell this sorry tale to, including on this site.

I imagine that no one will take your side on this.
Sure, some may argue that they should have been more honest that the coupon would be BOGO.
But when your letter ends with you going on a mission to destroy the MD Foundation, I'm pretty much thinking that you've lost any support that you'd otherwise receive.
I can see it now. Some kid is told she can't get leg braces because Tina's mad at Burger King. I'm sure, Tina, that she's totally understand and will on your side.

It was a stinking dollar for charity and you're screaming bloody murder because you didn't get a free double cheeseburger? Karma, my dear, karma . . . .

Oh for crying out loud. So don't use the coupon and never go there again. Did it really kill you to add a dollar for handicapped kids? You obviously already GO there and eat there, so you'll probably be buying a double cheeseburger anyway.
And trust me: If you complain about this to "anyone [you] see," karma will be smacking you upside the head, along with anybody who gets as annoyed with you as you likely will make them.
