How not to solicit donations with candy

By Rick Lax

That poor girl is doomed.

Look, Pad Thai restaurant on Rancho and Charleston, I don’t want to tell you how to run your “Missing Child” donation/candy box, but I feel that I have to. For the sake of the kid.

If you’re going to use candy to entice customers to donate quarters, don’t have the exact same candy mix available, for no expected donation, one foot to the left.

Do you want that cute little girl to stay missing, you heartless bastards?
