Are there any companies you actively avoid/boycott?

Gamestop. I'll go there if I have to, I just don't ever have to. Amazon Prime discounted preorders and delivery - usually at my doorstep by the time I get home so I don't have to drive to GS. There's a mom and pop way closer to my house and they break street dates. GGs GS.

Starbucks. They take over a lot of local spots that they don't even need to. Multiple times I have seen Starbucks across the street from another Starbucks. And they're not even good. I haven't been to any local coffee dedicated place that wasn't better than Starbucks.

McDonald's. About 15 years ago I had a big mac and felt sick after. Since then I've gone to McDonalds once, just to see how it was. Sucked. I doubt I'll ever go again.

Chil Fil A. The anti gay stuff. Not down with it.
 
Sears - Me and my family refuse to ever buy from there again after a horrible experience we had with them

Circuit city - lol bye bitch

And the chicken and craft stores for obvious reasons

Soon to be added to the list, PlayStations lolol

Isn't Circuit City coming back in some fashion. They were always good for videogame purchases back in their brick and mortar days though. Amazing deals at store closings but that's typical for any chain.
 
Apple because I am not compatible with their philosophy of doing things.

Starbucks because they are both expensive and avoid paying taxes, nothing to like about that.

I live in one of the coffee capitals of the country (supposedly) and I still like going to Starbucks, tasty drinks!
 
Abercrombie and Fitch is something that just says "douchebag" to me, due to the comments of the CEO. I've never owned clothes from there, and I don't know the style itself, I just think the CEO seemed like a scumbag.
 
But BP is the most environmentally conscious of major oil companies in the wake of that PR nightmare (not that any of them are "good")? You are not really having the impact that you were hoping for .

I have never had any expectations of my one vehicle having an impact by not going to their gas stations.

IIRC, he said something along the line of how his clothes are for attractive people only, while he looks like a gorrilla himself.

I remember laughing like a maniac reading that article.
 
there's a local pizza place I used to get delivery from from time to time but I stopped using them both because they changed their website for the worse(far more annoying to navigate,removed the ability to pay online for some reason) and because they occasionally forgot parts of my orders
 
Gamestop


Walmart.
-Hi! I am Dan Rolle.

Running for Congress in District Four (Las Vegas)

Here is both my proof, and a really good video of how some dirty politics tried to shut us out of the Democratic Convention.

They put my local sprint store I worked at out of business.
-They pay poorly
-I've only had 2 car wrecks, both in Wal Mart parking lots
-They're building one in my backyard even though the county/city and all residents said "no".


$10 is not bad.

You mean the guy who looks like Gary Busey got stung by bees?

Ubisoft, EA and Apple. I want to boycott Microsoft and Google, but that would seriously harm my PC experience, so I'm forced to use their products.

I also actively boycott all religious and charity related products and things. Most of these are just elaborate scams.
