The Blood Connection

Hi Valerie - it typically takes about 48 hours to appear in your account!

I call the main number to get an appointment.

Just go to their home base 1/4 mile from Walmart and ask for the Walmart gift cards for you thanku gift.

They can also tell you the next visit you make to donate.

You do not receive cash money ever. Some times you get a gift card or two ($10 - $20) to local places but never cash.

200 for blood donations and sometimes they have bonus points up to 1000.

if it has been a couple of days, I would go to their website and contact customer service. They can push them out to you.

I'm almost positive that all of those are still okay to take and won't disqualify you from donating. Most of the medications they will not allow are blood thinners or things for prostate and Accutane for acne. You can always call and ask. They're very kind and always helpful.

They run different promotions every month. They just had "Movie May" where every donor received a $20 gift card to the movie theater. But they're no longer doing that so it changes constantly... you just have to look online at www.thebloodconnection.org and see what the current incentives are in the center, it always tells you.
