The EU can build solid stuff and as annoying as the people running their countries might be at least you're supporting good labor practices. Outside of wine and guns I'm not sure what I might buy that would be made there though as I don't see too many products from there.
This kind of site is a good thing, but I wish they would also list products from other countries like India or Bangladesh, or really anywhere that isn't specifically an enemy. Really you'd want filters, because obviously there are times you specifically are looking for made in America, and there are times you just don't want China.
With a lot of products, the premium for something made in the west is more than I'm looking to pay. I don't have an issue with products made in the "developing world" in general, although I expect lower quality along with the lower price. I just specifically don't want to support China.
Yeah I'm done with major retailers to the best of my ability. Going to support local business when I can, buy from manufacturers directly when I can, and if those aren't options I may just re-evaluate if I need the thing at all.
It's getting to the point that every company listed on the stock exchange is compromised, and every business that had received venture capital investment is either compromised or soon will be.
I hate that the left circa 1990 with the anti-business rhetoric is being proved correct and those of us who defended companies like Walmart and Amazon as just having superior business models are looking like complete fools.
Yeah it's a tough one to swallow. It was easy being for minimal government and capitalism. I even went as far as to tell myself that it's still govt that's the problem when it comes to the revolving door between corporations and the government.
Now we are seeing that God given rights are absolutely trampled by big tech and international corporations without fail, and if our own government doesn't work to reign things in, other governments will work to exploit them.
Find and support more local suppliers. Small regional chains are out there. Local hardware store may be a bit more expensive, but it is a real place with probably 95% of what you @[email protected]
Same with local pharmacy if your area still has one. You will get better service and much clearer access to the pharmacist.
Also... Habitat for Humanity Re-Use stores are great. Thrift Stores are all local and your purchase often helps out charities and churches.
There are MANY options for many lroduct categories.
During summer when there was farmers markets everywhere we barely went to the grocery store at all... Cutting as much of that crap as we can. Hand made a ton of Christmas gifts as well.
Yes but amazon gets a cut of their profits by using their platform. Find the item on amazon, and buy directly from the small business. 95% of amazon is still chinese crap however.
Yes. If you can’t avoid buying something made in China, at least look for a used or secondhand version on ebay/Mercari/Facebook marketplace/etc. Help support a fellow American who is trying to make ends meet!
Completely agree. Easier said than done? My wife is addicted to both. I can’t think of realistic alternatives for a growing family on a budget. Open to any ideas
Garage sales, estate sales, thrift stores, or ebay if you’re looking for something really specific. Honestly I have bought most of my clothing at Goodwill in the past 5+ years, because the quality of new stuff has gotten so bad. Why spend $20 on a new shirt when I can find better quality for $4 at Goodwill?
Good point. Half our stuff at one point was from Goodwill. The main issue there is it’s hit or miss. I think Walmart will be easier to dump given how mindlessly easy Amazon is with just one click. eBay or direct from producer might work.
Think we gotta do this piecemeal. Gotta build up amazon while walmart goes put of business than buy from the big chain brick and morter that fills the niche (when local not up to task) after walmart goes under. Wont take walmart long. And who knows maybe Amazon gets tricked into over extending on investments and then its even easier to take them out of the game.
Boycott Walmart? Then where do I even shop? Those stores have long since been destroyed by said Walmart. They were moving their pieces and trapping us long before we realized what was happening.
Tranny loving Target? Kroger owned Harris Teeter? Lowe’s owned by WALMART? The corporations have us by the balls and enough is enough. People criticized AOC for keeping Amazon out of NYC, but she was right. New York is what it is because of small business and these scum sucking faggot corps destroy them and pay off politicians with millions of disposable dollars they have lying around.
Goes to show how corrupt these large corporations got. Their lobbyists got them so much power they are able to play games with political Messaging with little to no pushback. Mom and pop shops can never dream of having this type of influence. It’s corrupt and and it’s wrong.
Try to buy directly from the manufacturer.
Manufacturers use Amazon a lot of times for shipping
The manufacturer's website uses Amazon's servers
Online shopping is a monopoly/cartel
Buy guilt free knkwing that unless congress gets involved in breaking them up, they are the hand that feeds
Or Target.
What’s wrong with target? A Mini China or something?
Directly funded arson, looting, and murder
They contributed to blm/ Antifa/ Both?
It seems like just about every company was eager to virtue signal their support of that illogical, communist, racist & disgusting ideology.

However avoid the EU Manufacturers.
EU is China Lite.

What about Switzerland?

That is a solid comment. Totally agree

Need MAGAMart.....
Start it up.
Be glad to. I need some capital start up costs. Got a few million on you?
The SBA does. They'll loan 90% against collateral. So if you have 10 to invest in yourself, theyll give you 90 more.
Good to know. Got $900,000 on you?
10% is 100k bro, not 900k
Im sorry. Im not trying to antagonize you.
OK, lets be honest, if you could put together a great and detailed business plan, there is a good chance you could find people to fund it.
But one of those people won't be me. I don't, at this time, have a few million to spare.

Amazon is odd or just so big they can't root out the based folks.
They have Trumps greatest insults on prime video, one of my favorites.
Amazon prime has that documentary plot against the president which is a must watch!
They surprisingly have a few pro trump documentaries!
AND SHOP LOCAL
Ehh, I live in a blue area so I'd rather not. Most local businesses have BLM signs up or have made statements in support of left wing causes.
Wow. Stay safe.
Seems like we need a Maga version of Amazon.
Walmart is China.
Amazon is China.
And china is assho.
Yes but amazon gets a cut of their profits by using their platform. Find the item on amazon, and buy directly from the small business. 95% of amazon is still chinese crap however.
Try eBay, honestly. My experience directly with people has been so far much better than anything Amazon offers.
Plus, the selection is better.
Yes. If you can’t avoid buying something made in China, at least look for a used or secondhand version on ebay/Mercari/Facebook marketplace/etc. Help support a fellow American who is trying to make ends meet!
I'd only say avoid giving Cuckbook clicks as well, but I know I miss out a lot on some good finds by not being on there, so I'm not mad if ya do ...
I think just cutting down as much as possible would be a good start. Then start finding alternatives..kinda like you'd quit smoking?

Is Target safe?
I feel like I can’t even buy toothpaste without fucking my country.
i agree go to ebay instead
Amazon owns the Washington Post? I thought Bezos owns the Washington Post...
A=B B=C Hence...
Stop logic-shaming me, bro
Most items on amazon can be bought from the manufacturer, and if you can't, there is a 99% chance its Chinese garbage.
Boycott Walmart? Then where do I even shop? Those stores have long since been destroyed by said Walmart. They were moving their pieces and trapping us long before we realized what was happening.

I cant believe in saying this.. even if ours reasons are different, for once AOC is right.
so go to shops where they make you wear a mask? Its lose lose fren
That leaves eBay then, right?
Mfw I only shop at local grocers....who are the only local grocers around....and find out they are owned by sinola cartel.
Cancelled Amazon, good decision. Support local businesses even if it means paying a bit more pedes
Shop local! If you cant find it, maybe its time to open a store!

Some idiot fucked up. don't be like them. Don't cancel them because of an idiot.
You believe that lie? The tweet came from the official Walmart twitter. That's all that matters.
Don't be like the people you despise. Cancel culture is stupid, walmart already issued a apology.
Walmart isn't a person. Cancel culture deals with canceling individuals. Who said I despise cancel culture anyway?
do what you want pede, just sharing my opinion. this is not reddit, so we can disagree. isn't that neat?
I just became a Target shopper. Indefinite Walmart, Amazon boycott.
What does Target have that you need and can't get somewhere else?
Honest question.
Well at least you got rid of the two worst ones.
