That is how offering should be. Not necessaily lacking a formal anouncement to take one, but minus the "Billy Mays phase".

What is it with Mark Morgan and people throwing money around? The guy really has a gift. I spent some time with him once; before service, after service, all through the service - for a week.
He had come in from out of town and there's no way that he could have set that up. Next thing I know some woman is dumping the contents of her purse on the altar and a crowd gathers to do the same. And he was just preaching - not even about giving. Took us forever to get all the coins and bills collated, the checks sorted.
I told the elder that I didn't know if we should have this guy come back. Hard to have church when people just start dumping money out in a big ol' pile. Takes a shop vac just to clean it all up.
