Happy to donate money to the homeless in the street? Of course you are! But how embarassing is it when you pull out a handful of coins full of high denominations when in reality you can only afford to give some small change? Well, those days are over with 'Guilt-Gone'.

These small metallic tips fit over two of your fingers and are made of a substance that will only attract the 'small change' in your pocket. Therefore leaving the biggies at the bottom of the pocket and stopping you mumbling your apologies/lying to homeless person (who, incidently, can see straight thru your pathetic lies), enabling you to give yourself a slap on the back and a warm feeling inside (courtesy of the aforemetioned kebab).

May God have mercy on your souls.

       ...and what cunning magic would make it attract only low-denomination coins?

       hey swivel6, i do donate food/money but not all the time (only recently got a job myself after many years in the wilderness). it WAS a slightly light-hearted solution to a serious issue, buddy!   

       hippo, i know, i know - i love your 'cunning magic'. any metallurgists (?) out there?

       Nickel is magnetic, from memory (((((shimmering haze around Year 10 Chemistry lesson))))), but it needs to be quite pure. Get national mints to change the chemical composition of coins... oh... WIBNI.

       You could get the bum to earn his money, like carry you around or somthing, then you wouldnt need to catch the bus.

       Alternatively, you could just do what I do - put your large change in the pocket on one side of your coat, put your coppers and an occasional 10p in the pocket on the other side. Then just dig in without worry into the charity pocket when necessary.
