A meal of leftovers worthy of a feast in less prosperous nations and an idea
What if I were to buy a can of soup and instead of giving it to the needy, auctioned it off and donated the proceeds to charity with the understanding that the buyer would in turn auction it off and give the proceeds to charity. The only rules being that you have to sell it for more than you paid for it, and donate 100% of the proceeds to charity.
People could track on a website what the current value of an item they once bought and sold. See pie charts to what causes the donations went to.
