I remember growing up in elementary school, they always told us poppies cost a quarter, and everybody got one readily. I thought that for years, until I realized how foolish it is to only give a quarter. I've been giving more since (I dunno, something different each year) and I gave $5 this year, and I'll probably make this the norm, since when I put the bill in the woman thanked me more than I've ever been thanked, again making me realize how important it is to give and to remember.
