It's a BUYcott!

I asked a friend where she and her soon to be wife are registered for wedding gifts. The answer: Bed Bath & Beyond. The reason: They're blue! They referred me to a website called Buy Blue. It lists how blue or red a company is (some do land in the 'white' - or would that be purple?). Also lets you know who the parent company is. What a great idea!
Buy Blue's Mission:
"You may have voted blue, but every day you unknowingly help dump millions of dollars into the conservative war chest. By purchasing products and services from companies that donate heavily to conservatives, we have been compromising our own interests as liberals and progressives.

BuyBlue.org is a concerted effort to lift the veil of corporate patronage, so consumers can make informed buying decisions that coincide with their principles."


A few days ago I was on Cartalk's website which led me to an interesting article. If you have to buy gas, do it responsibly. Here is a great reason to buy your gas at Citgo. Support Venezuela!

LOVE that site. Makes it hard to shop though...Target is fairly pink...and I love Target.

But proves my point that Starbucks is NOT eeeevil (like the fru-its of the devil)
