So what unorthodox stuff have you received while busking? Or what have you given to buskers?

I've been given:
- loaf of bread
- closed can of pop
- fresh basil
- coins from a variety of countries
- coupon to buy a slice of pizza and get one free
- some weird little plastic thing I couldn't identify
- note containing advice on thumb position
- my favourite: 85 photocopied pages of evidence for life after death, delivered to me without comment by a girl in a rabbit suit

I've politely declined:
- hot dog
- hamburger
- open can of pop
- evangelistic tracts (when I said no thanks, she said, "You could be doing this... for eternity!")

If I don't have any change, I usually offer buskers subway tickets. I don't know what to do with all these foreign coins I've accumulated, maybe I should just pass them on to other buskers.
