It's getting ridiculous and embarrassing in equal measures.
This week I've been asked to sponsor a swim, 2 bike rides, a bounce and buy raffle tickets.
At work (on paper) I'm one of the higher paid people but in practice we're very short of cash.
I smile, look people in the eye and say 'You're the x person that has asked me this week, and I'm sorry I just can't do it, but best of luck to you'.
But I really just want people to stop asking. What do others do?
Oh BTW - we do give 'goods' to charity shops (not crap), so we do still 'give'!
