Let’s Not Shop - #2/28/2025
No big box
No chain stores
No Amazon
manigarm.bsky.social Dr. Holly Walters @manigarm.bsky.social · Feb 12
I know there have been a fair number of conflicting dates, so, let's organize and settle on February 28th to start.

Market Blackout. No buying. No major retailers. No Amazon.

For one day, we grind consumerism to a halt. (And with a little planning, this shouldn't be hard.)

Let's do it.
The 24 Hour Economic Blackout: As our first initial act, we turn it off. For one day we show them who really holds the power. WHEN: Friday, February 28th from 12:100AM to 11:59PM WHAT NOT TO DO: Do not make any purchases. Do not shop online, or in store. No Amazon, No Wal-Mart, No Best Buy Nowhere! Do not spend money on Fast Food, Gas, Major Retailers, Do not use Credit or Debit Cards for non essential spending. WHAT YOU CAN DO: Only buy essentials of absolute necessity. (Food, Medicine, Emergency Supplies) If you must spend, ONLY support small, local, businesses SPREAD THE MESSAGE: Talk about it, post about it, and document your actions that day! WHY THIS MATTERS: Corporations and banks only care about their bottom line. If we disrupt the economy for just ONE day, it sends a powerful message. If they don't listen (they won't) we make the next blackout longer (We will). This is our first action This is how we make history. February 28th. The 24 hour economic blackout begins.

Learning to bake my own bread. “Wild harvested” yeast makes me sound so rustic and off grid (I’m not).
