Right on. They only take the plasma.
Very simple and the only think that is uncomfortable to me not being to fall asleep while you are donating

In mankato (Biolife Plasma) you can donate 2 times in a 7 day period. You get 20 the first time and 30 the second. The extra $200 a month is nice especially since it only takes about an hour and a half per visit. It is how I pay for my TV and CC bills.
