In the book by Charles Dickens, Scrooge did not throw the boy money to buy the Turkey. Scrooge told the boy, "Go and buy it, and tell 'em to bring it here, that I may give them the direction where to take it. Come back with the man, and I'll give you a shilling. Come back with him in less that five minutes, and I'll give you half-a-crown!" When they brought the turkey back to his house, he paid for the turkey and recompensed the boy.
