Psych 101.. If someone gives you something, you feel the need to give them something..aka free samples at grocery store.
ehellbow
YOU ARE THE CHILD! ...and the mail is coming from within the house!
PerfectSpawn
Send back: "Thanks, but you just wasted it on me, now I have enough to buy a beer"
gaberham
You better keep it because nobody, and I mean nobody, wants a Nickelback.
Metals4J
Because the child you save COULD be your own!
GerberLegalTeam
Cause you act like a child.
THRILLHOUSE69
Charities do this because the act of giving (even a fake ass nickel) usually makes the other party reciprocate.
And the bitches
hwatL4bloopy
use it! to save your child's life
CoIumbusOhio
To guilt trip you into opening their junk
bambulina
I always used to wonder about those & "donate today & we'll send you a t-shirt or tote bag" NO! Spend the money on your cause, stupid ass!
TheKinginTheNorff
So you can keep sending more nickels or maybe even a bunch of nickels at once
MetaVulture
Stamp cost 50 cent. Nickel is 5 cent. They sent 55 cents. Give nickel back. Costs you 50 cents. They have 50 cent deficit. Child dies.
TheImgurWarsMadeMe
10 additional children, ooo, new high score!
VagisilToothpaste
To tell you that for $.43/day you can sponsor a child in a 3rd world country so they can eat rice mush from a plastic cup.
Munchman347
Hell, you know I'm just gonna spend it on beer, send that shit to Gates, he'll donate it...
Bobeez
Spend a nickel, get a quarter back...
atozz
Make a shitty song, get a Nickelback....
jaydawgx7
Eli Manning's future....
bongles
It's probably plastic, I've gotten one of those before
Xiphodin
I work for the postal service and Fuck These Letters. Not only do they fuck up our mail sorting machines if thecoins get out 1/2
yeaaadude
I hate these too! They're always messing up the bins or make trays heavy as fuck
It cost 10 times as much for them to send you the damn nickel as the nickels worth.
Lohocla
Wondering how many of those actually get delivered...20 = 1 dolla.
Jbluberry
Usually 10-20,000 and adding five cents for a huge increase in the amount of people opening the letter is good business.
or you get memed on the internet.
FINNSTAR7
Because, maybe deep down, you need saving too...
Derpbeard
nervpanda01
CalleC
Your inner child needs to be saved, swallov the nickel now!
dauntlessds
Because deep down, you're still a bitch ass baby.
Sephority
Gonna need more than a nickel
Iamenvy
MadHakon
Motherfuckers wanna save me with a nickel? No wonder I need saving. Ya'all cheap ass hoes.
LitttleKidLover
Because there is a child in you. And you like it

That's almost as deep as the hole in my heart pit. How dare you make my heart pit feel.

If you send it back, they know someone at that address is getting their mail and will send more money. Most of the time the ones who send1/?
Kyorbi
I've sent scam mailers back with only "sorry, you are not a winner" inside. I wonder if anybody reads those business reply mails...
Money to you first are scams. They want to test the waters and see if someone's bites. 2/2
While this may be true, this is a real tactic in direct mail fundraising and not a scam. Almost every museum or charity could use this.
CatsOrExcited
It is a real tactic and 100% a scam. Working to clean and maintain the chaotic house of two elderly: F*#K ANY ORGANIZATION THAT DOES THIS.
ThatOneFriendWhoTriesTooHard
My grandmother used to fall for those. Some she mistook for bills.
Same with mine, till we looked up the address on one and it was a small house in New Hampshire.
CaspianQuix
Because children are coin operated.
MostLikelyPooping
How do we stop them and get a refund?
fuzzyjew
Just the boys, if Amanda Palmer has it right.
Mehhhhh69
SailorBOB
*awkwardly sings* Coin operated boy..

I'm not sending donations to someone who can't even give my money to the correct person.
[deleted]
But the impression Is my donating goes to save some child. Not be used in marketing schemes that may or may not work. Super Shady/dishonest
Fishworshipper
Charities have to market, at least somewhat. You can't donate to a cause that you don't know exists. Therefore, the higher return
your marketing has, the more you should use it.
