This week let’s chat about all of the reasons why some shoppers have decided to take a break from Amazon. Whether the environmental impact makes you uneasy, the treatment of their workers, or just the ease of impulse shopping- whatever rubs you the wrong way, you might be looking for ways to reduce your reliance on Amazon.
Today let’s talk about a baby step you may have never considered before- buying your books on Bookshop.org. Thousands of independent bookstores have signed up to sell books through this website and in 5 short years, almost $40 million has been raised to support independent bookstores in the US and the UK.
Reconsidering your relationship with some of the big online retailers? Learn more in today’s episode.
