i have just been through a period of time where an organisation clamed they could find people
they lie they dont help fathers to find and to be able to see there children from broken relationships
so went in and started to verafy who works for the salvation army
the amount of police and police investigators located behind doors that should not just fall open is completely idiotic
why are we the general public donating money , clothes , household items to the supposed religious sector
lies and more lies
just wanted people to know what we found hiding instore
police with no real duties for a reason they are investigators
its a cruel world with more lies than they can dictate to us all

I know charities rely on money , but I don't like the way the Salvation Army is now charging maximum prices for their 2nd hand stuff at their family stores. I shop there because I can't afford to buy new stuff and some of their prices are ridiculously high. The staff/ volunteers in our branch are older women who are so rude, sometimes I feel embarrassed to go to the counter! Maybe they should spend less money on TV and radio advertising for their stores so they can keep the prices a little more realistic. I know charities are all competing these days , but surely the Sallies are high enough profile that they shouldn't be needing to advertise nightly on the TV? Some shops are also selling some of their 'better' stuff on Trade Me too because they can get more money that way - its all about the money honey !!!!!
