Happened to me a couple of times, once for radio and once for TV. Guess the 5 spot is there to create a guilt trip for those of us who believe in working for our pay.

Might do the same. $5 is not enough to insult me.

Got one of these for reporting what radio stations I listen. Only got $5 total in return.

Don't know how much it was worth to them as I only listen to the radio in the garage. Let them figure it out.

Naw... just playing with ya. I barely listen to radio though. Usually it's the news station to catch up on events weather and traffic. Once I have that, it's back onto the iPod.

I did the right thing. I listened to my heart.

I kept the $5.00 and spent it as quickly and foolishly as I could. Sorry it wasn't a $50.
