    I uh… I already started boycotting them a few weeks ago because I found out they donate red.

    Figuring out where to get random goods while ditching Target, Walmart, AND Best Buy is going to force me to learn things for sure.

    I just want to note: target is a pretty decent place to use the bathroom when out and about.

    Give them your shit, not your money. Plus, they have to pay for the water you use.

    Fuck 40 day boycotts - find a different supplier. Canadian Tire offers pretty solid deals and you could probably find someone to ship shit to you.

      Although it’s a nice “kick when you are down” when Target Corp is in the red at - 13.5% this month.

    Truthfully, this won’t have any effect. The vast population does not care and doesn’t do boycotts. You can only have effective boycotts by Conservatives because they’ll threaten violence and take aggressive action. Quiet little boycotts by 1% of the population won’t hurt them.

    I will never understand people’s obsession with what is essentially a shittier, more expensive walmart.
