July 26 Every A.A. group ought to be fully self-supporting declining outside contributions. Twelve Steps and Twelve Traditions p.160
When I go shopping I look at the prices and if I need what I see, I buy it and pay. Now that I am suppose to be in rehabilitation, I have to straighten out my life. When I go to a meeting, I take a coffee with sugar and milk, sometimes more than one. But at the collection time , I am either too busy to take money out of my purse, or I do not have enough, but I am there because I need this meeting. I heard someone suggest dropping the price of a beer into the basket, and I thought that's too much! I almost never give one dollar. Like many others I rely on the more generous members to finance the Fellowship. I forget that it takes money to rent the meeting room, buy my milk, sugar, and cups. I will pay, without hesitation, ninety cents for a cup of coffee at a restaurant after the meeting, I always have money for that. So,how much is my sobriety and my inner peace worth? Daily Reflection p. 216
