Junkk.com promotes fun, reward-based e-practices, sharing oodles of info in objective, balanced ways. But we do have personal opinions, too! Hence this slightly ‘off of site, top of mind' blog by Junkk Male Peter. Hopefully still more ‘concerned mates’ than 'do this... or else' nannies, with critiques seen as constructive or of a more eyebrow-twitching ‘Oh, really?!' variety. Little that’s green can be viewed only in black and white.

The Charity Business
I may seem like I am always down on charities, but I'm not. Well, I'm OK with charity, but not so much the business most major 'charities' brands' have become.
My unease is typified by this poster in our local street. And it's worth noting there are about a dozen such shops competing with rate-paying commercial sales outlets.
WE DON'T ACCEPT OLD BOOKS.
That was what I liked about such shops. Old stuff reused and the money going where most needed. Now they are flogging new stuff (see the poster behind?) to send what % after deductions for admin and marketing?
