Went into tk maxx today to look for a dress for a may wedding. As i entered the store there was a lady doing a sponsored bike ride (stationary exercise bike) for cancer research, so i dropped some loose change in the bucket. Also at the changing rooms there were raffels etc and various characters interacting with kids etc. Anyways i was paying at the till and used my contactless card.... the cashier asked me..... if your feeling generous would you like to add £1 to the total in aid of cancer research. I replied no thank you....... she then pulled a face. Hmm Out of pure embarrassment i told her i had already donated by the front door. I got zero reply ... she just handed me my bag. No thanks..... good bye...... nada. AIBU to expect the staff to be polite and courteous whether i donate or not? It really got my goat and i felt mortified thatcothers were judging me. Had a very lean paychecks recently and i need to watch my pennies!

I'd be annoyed too....i dont like it when charity collectors stand in the foyer of Tesco and try to talk to you as you are rushing in or out....if i want to donate it will be to a local animal charity of my choice and not if anyone has tried to pressure me into it.

Jeeze op, why do you care what a complete stranger thinks of you? You did your bit.

Only because i think she tried to embarrass me/drew attention to me. I felt she was rude!
