I try not to give money to big corporations on most days but I for sure will do no shopping today. The 2nd Saturday of May, our postal workers are collecting food: https://about.usps.com/what/corporate-social-responsibility/activities/nalc-food-drive.htm
We actually have a public holiday on Monday for Labour Day but it appears very few people know the May Day thing here - I greeted someone at work with it yesterday and he was confused!
I hope this is given lots of energy. Many busy people haven't heard of it, apparently.
ReplyDeleteGood slogan!
ReplyDeleteAgain, i thank you for bringing this to my attention. I hadn't heard.
ReplyDeleteA planned at home day for us and no spending (beyond the fact that our rent comes due today).
ReplyDeleteI hope this hits them where it hurts.

No shopping here today. I can't attend a rally because we have a weekend away starting a lunch time. With you in spirit.
ReplyDeleteI didn't shop today, but I did go to the doctor. I know almost everyone went to work. They just can't afford not to go.
ReplyDeleteNo shopping anywhere.

ReplyDeleteI went for a walk and a shop at the local thrift store.

This is something we can all get on board with. We need to break the control of all major corporations have over us all
ReplyDeleteThat we did!
ReplyDeleteSounds like the day was quite successful. Now it's to be hoped there are more planned and more people take part.
