Would you have given her money?

Right i was coming home from blanchardstown shopping centre on Saturday and stuck at traffic lights. Im not sure which traffic lights exactly but i was near the motorway and traffic was a good way back.

At the lights, i could see some woman who appeared to be handing out leaflets.

The friend who was with said no shes probaly selling something, she be will back asking for money.

Given that i had not seen her talking to the other motorists and just saw her handing something to them, i assumed it was a leaflet.

Nope, it was a magic tree air freshener with a note stapled to it that read
" Please give me money, I have lost my job and have 2 kids"

Im pretty sure, word for word thats what it said.

Of course, i came to my senses and gave her back her magic tree.

From what i could see, some of the cars in front must have just drove off as
i doubt she managed to get back to all of them a second time for payment.

What bothered me the most was the way she done it. She did not ask if i would like to but one but instead throw it at me through the window whilst walking by. Kind of forcing me to consider the purchase.
Considering that, i was hoping for the lights to go green so i could drive off, purely for the principle of it.

So would anybody else have thrown her some money?
Theres quite a large flow of traffic there so i assume, its statistically likely that she is getting some money from this venture.
