Nope not at all.

I give to charity where and when I choose...i never feel guilted into anything.

No way 

no

No it doesn't.
It makes me feel angry that so many people seem to want to stop me going about my business in town. Shouting, rattling tins and boxes, asking me to change my provider of this, that and the other.
Standing in spots where they know they are blocking potential customers - places where they are virtually confronting people.
No guilt at all.
People choose for themselves who they wish to give money to.
If it becomes verging on the aggressive (which is often the case) it makes me more determined to ignore.
I do contribute to things but I will not be coerced into it.

No,If I have some spare change on me I usually pop some in the can,if I  don't then I obviously don't.

*Seconds what Brisket said ^^^   If someone tries to stop me, I normally say..I haven't got the time and walk past

I give plenty to charity but I do not remotely feel guilty if I don't give to all who wish me to. It is better to give because you want to, not because you are being expected to. It was wrong of that collector to start giving people funny looks/

Oh Change you power providers are a total pain,especially when they come to the door and try to give the hard sell.

Only when the wine bottles rattle.

No.
I do give ,in my own way privately.Thats why they collect this way ,its to make you feel guilty.More people should ignore them,or better still go to the management and let them know you will withdraw your custom and shop in a store that doesnt have the customers harrassed.
Our local Asda only allow so many "collection" days throughout the year and its usually for the local primary schools.

I always buy boxes.........

No, I give when I can but sometimes when I go to town its jammed packed with charity muggers and I get annoyed with them all....

No, I rarely carry cash anyway, and I prefer to give to charities of my choice.

No, I don't feel guilty at all. I do try to buy from Big Issue sellers whenever I can and always give a couple of quid extra (cos I usually feel sorry for the dog and if it's near a Tescos I'll buy the dog a treat). But these days I'll only give if I can spare the cash.

No  I don't. Like everyone else on here I have my charities that I donate to and those I don't.

I felt guilty today at a big craft fair, the exhibitors put all their love and skills into what they make and I just go 'yeah, nice' and shuffle on

But no - I never feel guilty for not giving to collectors, and I am never made to feel guilty either.

Indeed! I wish that more people would analyse some of the charities rather than just give cash without thinking. Plenty of six figure salaries, lovely offices, and many admins to pay before the target gets a sniff of the money. Oh! I could tell you some stories.

This is why I always prefer to give to the Big Issue seller, because as I understand it, the person selling is the one in need. So when I chuck him (and the dog) an extra couple of quid it's going straight to the person who needs it most.

A lot of ours are now Eastern Europeans and they work for one person or a cartelle( sp) so it is a bit of a business for them, 
There was an article in one of the papers some time ago,

The people who stand in the streets wearing red, if I see them approaching me I try to dodge them, but if they get near me and ask me how old I am, I say 17, then they leave me alone.
