Good morning and remember not to buy anything from corporate stores or using a credit card. But, buy local!

Here’s a backgrounder, and some more action that’s scheduled:

  • March 7-14: Amazon Blackout — No Amazon purchases, no Whole Foods, no Prime orders.

  • March 21-28: Nestlé Blackout — Boycotting Nestlé-owned brands due to water exploitation, child labor, and corporate greed.

  • March 28: 24-Hour Economic Blackout #2 — No spending for one full day.

  • April 7-13: Walmart Blackout – Shutting down spending at one of the biggest price-gouging, worker-exploiting corporations.

  • April 18: Economic Blackout #3 — Another full 24-hour halt to the economy.

  • April 21-27: General Mills Blackout —Exposing food industry corruption and the poisoning of our families.

I would have posted on this sooner, but (seriously) we had a big shopping trip today and it took a while.

LOL. I have a niece born on 2/28. She's lucky she wasn't a day later.
