Whenever anyone suggests Amazon - especially in local stores - my response is increasingly:
”I try not to support billionaires!”
Anything to add to my list of alternatives?
1) Buy locally from stores like #AceHardware, #staples
2) Online electronics from #BHPhotoStore, #Crutchfield
3) Directly from company websites
Maybe more questionable:
#Walmart - Are they better than Amazon?
(see last post & ⬇️)
#NewEgg - electronics
#bestbuy - improving?
