I just ordered and received a name brand pair of tennis shoes on store credit from Masseys. The shoes are new balance and cost $70.00. I also think Fingerhut is still in business. They used to be set up to make monthly payments on stuff.

Target and the Salvation Army
you should research any charity you donate to, because a lot of times whoever the higher ups are, they are way overpaid!!! I think Bob Doles wife got a lot of publicity in the paper for being overpaid for her charity work.
