Regular blood donors just do it for the petty cash, it's ridiculous.
Outside of the United States, the only compensation is a juice box and muffin. People who have rare blood types, especially those who have received blood in their past, are often regular donors.
I know a lady that consistently donates her blood and plasma at different locations to bypass their limits so that she can buy weed and alcohol afterward. I told her that's very dangerous and I also cut her off cuz she's crazy.
Sounds like an American issue
In the US that is all you get, unless it is plasma you're donating.
I know someone that gets $50 for every blood donation here in Florida and $100 for plasma. She doesn't have a rare blood type.
