Reply #40: Boycotting tons of things

[noamnety]

although I think of it more as changing my long-term habits rather than boycotting.

Walmart/Sam's club
All the big fast food chains
Dominos
I only buy gas at Citgo (except for emergency situations)
Soda
Professional sports (alright, I just don't like them, but still, it's an ethics thing as well)

95% boycott (sometimes I slip, but generally I avoid them):
All the Target-type stores and brand name clothing; I no longer buy new clothing. I'm good with thrift shops.
Restaurants that allow smoking

Partial boycott of chain grocery stores - I switched to community-based small grocers for produce, bread and dairy with some costco trips and small runs to the chains when needed

Mainly I'm trying to just reduce the amount of things I buy overall.
