BTW, I'm familiar with blood transfusions...did you really get a $50 gift certificate of donating "red blood cells"? I believe paid donors have been forbidden for decades now, though I think you may be able to get paid for plasma for non-transfusion purposes.
Which blinkie did you get? Is it daytime bright?
I did an "Automated Red Cell" donation, as I do every few months without any sort of compensation. This time, they asked me which $50 gift certificate I would like - Amazon, Walmart, Target, Home Depot, or Dunkin' Donuts. Knowing I wanted to upgrade my blinkie, I didn't argue.
