I didn't know they gave money for giving blood. I know they do for plasma but I didn't know they gave $ for blood. Huh.That's interesting. I've been a regular blood donor for 20 years. Even during the pandemic. But this weekend they offered me a $15 gift card (up from their usual $5) but I had to give blood on the blood drive bus. That is a bit too small an area for me to chance the virus even though I'm vaccinated
