[–] FiniteBanjo@lemmy.today 11 points 2 years ago (4 children) Where are ya'll going to donate blood where compensation is legal? Most places have banned that practice. permalink fedilink source hideshow 8 child comments replies: [–] Passerby6497@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago (1 child) Donating blood is uncompensated to my knowledge, but donating plasma is definitely compensated, but very low. My wife was just complaining that the local donation center only offers $90/week, and that's with 2 donations. It's like 35 or something for one session, and a total scam for those who are desperate for money. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] Gigan@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago (1 child) I make $110 for two donations and I don't feel like I'm getting scammed.

That was working okay for a while but after the pandemic hit they've become desperate for donors. permalink fedilink source parent
