The only one I truly boycott to that extent is Wal-Mart. It's just so incredibly easy. There's always another place to get the thing.

Same man, Walmart just makes me depressed if I need to go there.

Unfortunately my grandpa is dutch and wants me to pick things up for him there sometimes ๐Ÿคฃ

What does being from the Netherlands have to do with shopping at Walmart?

It might be about what his grandpa will do to Pyr if Pyr doesn't go to walmart for him.

Well if you were from the Netherlands and starving because the Nazis stole your cows and gouda cheese you would also want to try and save every damn penny you can.

I've been boycotting Walmart for over 20 years. In that time, there was only one thing I couldn't find anywhere else but there. After buying it, I found it at Costco shortly after. I was never so happy to return an item in my entire life. I even signed for the return on the fanciest cursive "Fuck Walmart" that I could muster.
