Want to donate toys to charities for Christmas? See this!

This is a comment I found. Not my words but ...

////////////////////////////////
A friend goes into Wal-Mart, to the customer service area. He 
sees carts and carts full of toys. He asks one of the workers 
what was up with all the toys being returned. The employee 
told him that they were all from toy rides, angel trees, toys 
for tots etc .

He was told that worthless deadbeat moms bring them back and 
return them and get cash so the kids still end up with no 
toys. The employee went on to tell him that if you buy toys or other things
for charities, cut the bar codes off or destroy them with magic markers so they can't 
do this.

I don't know if this is true, but I think it should be done to eliminate the possibility

I don't know if that is true or not  either but I think it is a great idea!!!!

Wow. But I'm a little leery. Though, if some families need food more than toys., it could be true.  Another idea, special mark on the toy - perhaps a code that would tell the store it was a "Toys for Tots". By the way - most stores require proof of purchase, unless for Christmas gifts that may be forgiven..
