Next time say I want coffee too, I'll get you one. What do you take cream and sugar?
Btw, this is standard operating procedure for the homeless. Same thing happened to me a few weeks back. |

haha yeah, if you actually want your money going to food etc, you have to buy it for them.
I never give money anymore, mostly because i'm broke, and need the money for smokes and booze for myself, but also because it becomes annoying after being asked 50 times a day walking through tha citeh...
I personally don't care what they spend my money on, I'm in no position to tell them that food is better than booze of drugs, it usually isn't :p |

Not since I got a fake ID and didn't have to get Joe to go do booze runs for us every weekend anymore. |

I generally will buy them some food, or give them something to eat if i have it on me. I don't give them money, i will however give my money to charities that support the homeless. |

Will you still buy them food if they look over weight? |

I do, but after awhile my local grocery store bum saved up and got a medical scooter that he would ride around in and he pretended like he was paralyzed so I cut him off. |

In Manchester they have secure, homeless charity boxes on the streets. They encourage you not to give them any money directly, but only to do so through the charities. I did that whenever I had any change and one was nearby. |
