Thank you for compiling this detailed list. Being older people, we do not do a lot of shopping. We have avoided Walmart for years, but until recently I thought Whole Foods was good...Will be doing some adjusting here...Thanks again and wishing you a restful and enjoyable holiday...
Please, do not kill me. I buy books in English, CDs (ancient music) and DVDs (classical movies) from Amazon because here such articles are almost non-existent, shops selling those articles closed, and second-hand ones often are defective. About twice a year. Luckily, my last purchase was about two months ago, I bought Dave, Sky High, and Down Periscope. I know, I love happy endings. I easily can hold back till mid-2026, where hopefully such dreadful happenings shall be ended.
TOTALLY disagree about putting COSTCO on the "good list." COSTCO has caved in to the Trump Administration & evangelical Republicans by now refusing to stock the drug mifepristone - the drug women use to terminate a pregnancy. Total BS. COSTCO no longer sells this drug in its 500 pharmacies because they caved in to Trump & religious fundamentalists.
Thank you. I'm SO disappointed that COSTCO has sold out the women of America and caved in to Trump & radical fundamentalist Christians on reproductive rights. In many cases, the COSTCO pharmacy is the only pharmacy in more remote, rural areas. The fact that COSTCO management has decided to limit women's rights to make their own decisions about whether they reproduce or not has lost me as their customer. Forever.
I’m confused; there is “another” blackout Nov 25-Dec 2, which I am doing now. NO SHOPPING or working—if possible, and any emergency purchases with cash and at local businesses. So my household has started that one. 🙌 Great info in this post. LOVE the ice scraper demonstration at HD!!
I belive there is also this one going on. Honestly, anyway to help is amazing! Tons of organizations are participating in blackouts with their own spin. 🙌
Please tell your partners at weain'tbuyingit(dot)com that AVG antivirus won't let people on. There's malicious activity on their website. I think they have an issue with malware rn. I'm sure it's not their fault.
hit them where it hurts. these mega companies, monopolies, need to be broken up. america has long stop enforcing their anti trust rules and now they own us

Thank you! If I missed any please lmk and I'll edit it later today! 😊 This post took longer to create than most so I really appreciate your comment.
😊 Well played patriots!

I have boycotted many of these since January. Defiance is a super power. Be defiant with your spend.
That sounds like a peaceful, and necessary effort was had!! I would have loved to have been there. 💙✌️

Thank you for this! I'll do more research on Costco and update the list to reflect this when I get home from work later.

Shouldn't Apple be on the bad list too? Didn't they donate to to the ballroom? https://www.cnn.com/2025/10/23/politics/ballroom-donors-white-house-trump
I am running out of places to shop.
Has anyone seen this about Campbells in news?
Let’s add them to the “Ain’t Buying It” list!

Thank you! I'll pass the message along 🩵
Yes, got similar message on fiftyfifty.one website.
So what's the plan B when Home Depot mgt takes ice scrappers off the shelf? That's what I would do, if I were the mgr.
Let’s do it! For the holidays (and beyond)!
The link won't open for me.
They prefer terrorists?
