    We recently got rid of our subscriptions and canceled Prime. Wish we had done it much sooner, but better late than never.

      For those on the fence on quitting Amazon: you can still use the website and shop, just search for the manufacturers website on stuff you want and purchase direct from them.

      You know, like going to a book store and ordering the books you find there from Amazon.

        Also even if something very specific that you want isn’t available outside of Amazon, that’s all the more reason to definitely not buy it and message the manufacturer/seller and let them know why you’re not buying it. Boycotts will sometimes mean not buying something you really want to buy, that’s working as designed.
