I don't like that when shops want to add donations to my bank card, either.
I always say No.
Like Muddy said,  I will donate to who I choose,  not let them choose.

  Neither do I like it when some shops don't want to give me a till receipt.  Instead they want your email address and say they will send a receipt.
I fell for this once at Dunelm and was continually pestered by adverts from them until I managed to put a stop to it.

I have an app on my phone called Google rewards. It adds small amounts to your Google Play account for answering surveys about places you might have visited. Often they are only places you passed or never heard of in which case you may only get 1p.
I have one asking for a receipt from Go Outdoors which is apparently on a retail park near me but I don't recall seeing it. I looked on Street view and wow is that out of date.

Just pan around on this...

Deny access !!  
A shoplifter would merely push by... The Security Guard would not retaliate..

My name is Olive and I must object
I'm in a bad mood, I haven't had sex
Just ask Alan when you're in the nude

That randy old Alan is a bugger
More than just a friendly hugger

I read that too. It should have been kept quiet. I wonder if they are allowed to deny access? That has to be just as risky.

What is the job description of a Security Guard in shopping stores please..? Does anybody know.?
He certainly doesn't seem to be in a position to put his hands on anybody..

He is NOT allowed to tackle a shoplifter... Does he have to politely say 'I think you are carrying something that you have forgotten to pay for'... 
Try saying that to a guy/guys running out of a store with vast amounts of alcohol, meat joints, clothing and items on the list that his 'friends' have asked for.. 

What is his purpose.. ?
