"We're not buying it"
#JustStopOil are having a campaign about food prices: https://petition.qomon.org/efcc5eed-were-not-buying-it-on-october-28th/
I'm not sure how much effect this will have.
#BuyNothingDay has been around for decades, and doesn't seem to achieve a lot 🤷
Still, it might bring some more pressure on the government.
Today is another Buy Nothing Day. I'm reading a library book for my fiction project and taking notes in a little book my daughter left behind when decamping for tech school. ❤️

#BuyNothingDay is a great start. Gifts can also be experiences, like having friends over for a dinner or a games night, or handmade items, or even some manual labour to help someone. If you have to buy something then explore second hand stores or online marketplaces that sell used but good condition merchandise. Reduce and Reuse need more emphasis well before we get to Recycle.

I hate to be a naysayer, but refusing to purchase anything from big retailers until they raise their prices back up again might not send the message you are intending.
Probably for the first time in many, many years, I unfortunately did not buy nothing on Buy Nothing Day this year. But it was quite accidental that it was just today that I got around to go out and buy the book I ordered some time ago. And it was the great Anthropocene Reviewed by John Green, that I bought at not just a small, radical bookshop, but a co-operative bookshop at that! With no mention of Black Friday at all anywhere. So I think it's ok. Almost every day is #BuyNothingDay for me.
One of the (many) fights we had at the worker-owned bike co-op I worked at for most of my 20s-30s was whether or not to be open on #BlackFriday AKA #BuyNothingDay.
Close for the day in solidarity with BND, or remain open and hopefully take some sales that would otherwise go to more exploitative businesses? (In 2005 that would’ve been Performance, but in 2025: Amazon)
When you’re a small business with low margins and these big shopping days happen during your off-season, it’s a tough decision.
Coolest & shortest #buynothingday western ever!

1. Happy #BuyNothingDay
2. Dreams were all about filmmaking in an incredibly instructive way… a vision of my journey as a future director?
3. On this beautiful sunny post-holiday morning, I changed directly from PJs to a onesie #chronicpain
Happy #BuyNothingDay to all who celebrate!
Fuck #BlackFriday & the corporations which enable #Trump & #Fascism
#BuyLocal if you have to buy anything this weekend
Once again, my proposal that we skip gifts in favor of a meaningful family donation (to a food bank for example) was met with disdain last night AT OUR THANKSGIVING DINNER 🤦🏽♀
The irony is lost on one person especially, who has been consumed by a decades long project to clear her cluttered house 🤔
#BuyNothingDay
Happy Black Friday to those who celebrate! As a young holiday not much has been done to build the lore of Black Friday.
What iconic mascot started BF?
How did the Pilgrims celebrate BF?
What lessons will we learn in the Peanuts Black Friday Holiday Special?
How can family be a part of this holidays messaging?

In honor of #BuyNothingDay I'm itching to share the Unshopping Day video I made 20 years ago in which a 5 year old Sonny makes a cameo appearance, but he might be tired of having it trotted out every year 🥲
3/ Also, wenn Ihr Matratzen braucht, müsst Ihr die heute (!!!) sofort (!!!) kaufen. Denn dieser Laden schließt jetzt bald! Wirklich! So wie schon in den vergangenen 15 Jahren!
Ich sage Euch per PM, wo der Laden ist. Es ist wirklich der totale Geheimtipp und alles ist super billig! Ihr müsst das heute kaufen!
Es wäre so schön, wenn sie wirklich mal zumachen würden und da irgendwas Ruhiges reinkäme. Etwas, das einen nicht immer anschreit.
Morgen ist es so weit, dann ist wieder der jährliche "Kauf-Nix-Tag" und ich habe mich vorbereitet - morgen kaufe ich nichts.

In den USA und einigen anderen Ländern ist der "Buy Nothing Day" übrigens heute, am Black Friday.

Good day to all this #GreenFriday aka #BuyNothingDay!
Looking forward to doing what I do most days and not buying anything unnecessarily. 😊
Anyone still falling in to the #BlackFriday trap remember that 98% of Black Friday 'offers' are no cheaper than they are normally. 🚨
What's more, if you bought from Amazon last year you helped them to suck out £575 million from the UK economy in lost taxes from their #TaxAvoidance. 🤯
Coulda paid for 23,504 nurses! 🏥
Or 14,808 doctors. 👩⚕️
Or 17,012 teachers. 👨🏫
Or 2 million winter fuel payments. 💷
Or half a million weeks of adult residential nursing care. 🛌
Or 3256 new social homes. 🏡

Local consumer watchdog confirms Black Friday is a lie.
Happy Buy-Nothing day.
Fuck #BlackFriday
#BuyNothingDay is one of my favorite holidays
Happy Thanksgiving from Tacoma

El Black Friday es solo otro día para los capitalistas que intentan convencerlo de que compre más cosas. ¡Resiste! ¡Reduce, Reutiliza, Recicla! #UpCycle #Resist #BuyNothingDay #NoToBlackFriday
Nicht vergessen: Morgen ist #BuyNothingDay und Samstag #KaufNixTag

In observance of Buy Nothing Day, Fern River Club will be taking a week off. New scene next Friday!
