Hullo, Sandy Bear here. I thought that headline might grab your attention...
And yes, you read that right... you can be a hero AND get free snacks!! At least... if you're in Canada... I don't know about other countries...
But here.... all you need to do is roll up your sleeve (or wear a t-shirt)...
And donate a pint of blood! Well... technically only 450 ml which is 95% of a US pint and 79% of a UK pint... sigh... Anyhow... we'll just call it a pint!
And... not only do they ply you with snacks afterwards - cookies, chips, granola bars, pretzels, juice, etc, etc... they give you a cool sticker!! "Be nice to me, I donated blood today." Any stuffie knows that such a sticker could go a long ways in securing even MORE snacks once you get home...
And... you get to be a Hero too! Doesn't that just tick all the boxes?
I think so...
Now... they don't give out cute bandaids but... still... it's hard to argue with free snacks and being deemed a hero!
Super Sandy signing off here (if I'm a Hero, then I'm darn well going to make use of a "hero" moniker!)... Time for more chocolate... Yes,
Jerry, it's a proven fact that chocolate helps you regenerate red blood cells! (I read that somewhere... sure of it...)
