This was in the latest bookshop.org newsletter:

"Where You Shop Matters
Amazon doesn’t care about books. They don’t care about maintaining a healthy literary ecosystem where new voices are discovered and important ideas are shared. They don’t care about sponsoring your local little league team or hosting a summer reading challenge designed to keep children learning. They want you to purchase things (so. many. things.) and they don’t care when you return it and it becomes trash.

Independent bookstores aren’t just bookstores. They are pillars of their communities and supporting them means supporting all of the incredible work they do beyond selling books.

They’re invaluable. Amazon is not."

Amen to all of this. If you have an Amazon account, end it, and support your local independent book shop instead.

#supportlocal #fuckamazon

Before you buy on amazon, check if the product-company has their own website and order it there.

This way the shop gets the full price, and corporations have less investment.

Have a great weekend you all. 😊

Plastic Free July Day 9: Bring your own containers 🥡

We visited Daughters in Sheffield and picked up some goodies without the single-use waste. Cake in a reused box, eggs in a carton, and produce in a container we brought from home

It’s an easy habit that supports local, keeps packaging out of the bin, and makes takeaway that bit better

Have you tried it? Tell us how it went 👇
