I donated some spindles of burned media and programs to Salvation Army expecting they'd throw 'em out. They're selling 'em for $3.

Dude never donate to SA. They're profit driven religious wackadoos who have no idea how to run anything. The charity angle is just another religious scam.
For religious people they're sure eager to sell used "personal massagers" for $10.
Also, frankly, here in the Reno area it's basically impossible to find a thrift store that's not run by incredibly religious wackadoos. Best you can do is Goodwill, which is far from irreligious. Salvation Army is one of the few that isn't blasting Jesus Rock on the speakers when you're in there.
I love how when Christians aren't charitable they are called hypocrites and when they are people complain that they are "religious wackadoos", lol.
You can act according to your faith and still be a nice and accepting human being. Doing charity only as a promotional device would be a negative for conscience at least.
It's not "only as a promotional device", though.
I mean I guess they're using the "charity" to generate personal cash as well
