It's easy to find a Toys for Tots drop-off locations all over Houston.
In one office near the Galleria Wednesday there was a Marine, toys under the tree and a lot of regret.
Tattoo regret!
"I should have listened to my mom," Victoria Aguilar said
Aguillar got a tattoo on her wrist a few years ago, Kenneth Green put a 'K", that's no longer "special" on his hand 25 years ago.
Now they are part of a unique charity drive that will help kids and help get rid of that body art.
New Look Laser Tattoo Removal partnered with the Marines for a simple deal: donate a new a toy for Toys For Tots and you get one free session of tattoo removal.
"I thought it was a scam" Hector Briones, said after he saw an ad on Craigs List.
He came anyway with a toy and his tattoo on his ring finger to learn more. After a five-minute session he saved money and was on his way to getting rid of the ink.
One session costs about $150. It usually takes 3 to ten visits to get rid of a tattoo.
Most of the people who showed-up were there because their children have started asking questions about what's on mommy's arm or leg.
For a some Playdough, Victoria Aguilar's two-year-old can stop asking those questions.
"She thinks she can rub it off my skin," Aguilar said.
