Oh, I've taken money from my kids plenty of times. They have money in the freezer they have gotten. When we need it for something (lunch money, tooth fairy money, liqour, etc...) and I need some I'll take it. To be fair, most of it came from my parents anyway so it's whatever.
I just dropped off a ton of crap for our church yard sale, which goes to benefit our benevolence fund. I really took a ton of stuff too. I mean, like 17 trash bags full of toys and clothes, two truckloads of outdoor toys, and electronic stuff like coffee makers and blenders and stuff. I'm basically saying all that to justify what comes next. So there was this nice 37 inch Toshiba HD flatscreen. It was an older model but I took it home to see if it worked and hooked it up to the DTV box and XBox in my boys room. He only had a small little 20 inch or something. It works great. So I called the lady in charge and asked her if I could have it. She said sure of course. I mean, I'm co-chair of the SPRC and a respected member and all that. Asked her how much and she said just donate whatever so I told her I would give them 20 for it. Not sure what they would have priced it for but they are going to make a ton off the stuff I donated so feel ok about it tbh. Still, it is probably worth more than that obviously.
