SevenSeasJim Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 I still had to have my Blackened chicken and 3 pitchers of beer for lunch. It is Friday after all. Why couldn't Buy Nothing Day be on a Wednesday or something. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dave-O Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Buy Nothing Day is a bit more meaningful in the US, today is the biggest shopping day of the year down south. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Large Marge Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 I'm 15 hours and 15 minutes in, and yet to spend a penny! It's pathetic how much I had to scramble around yesterday in preparation though... what a sad, sad society we live in that I'm so conditioned to constatly consume. The hardest thing so far? Going without my morning coffee!!! The hardest thing to come? Going to Something Something tonight and not being able to drink until after midnight!!! (Oh, please let them run me a tab) Cheers! Happy Saving! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 Sometimes it's really nice to live in the country where everyday is buy nothing day!!! Good luck to all you city dwellers I know it's tough....but it only is one day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bokonon Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 just waiting until tomorrow to buy what you would have bought today really defeats the point of buy nothing day. it's not about buying nothing that one day. it's about learning to do with less. just my two cents. peace.

Large Marge Posted November 26, 2004 Report Share Posted November 26, 2004 just waiting until tomorrow to buy what you would have bought today really defeats the point of buy nothing day. it's not about buying nothing that one day. I disagree. My having to plan around not buying anything today (even if it is only one day) has resulted in me thinking quite heavily about my consumer habits and as a result, very likely learning to do with less. A very effective catalyst, if you ask me. Thanks AdBusters! Cheers! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
