Happy Buy Nothing Day!

Focus on friends, family, and community today instead of shopping.

For twenty-four hours starting 12am the day after Thanksgiving and ending at midnight that night, our family buys nothing in a protest against the rampant consumerism and the shopping lunacy that strikes our nation during the very time we should be sitting down with our families and friends and reflecting on the joys, pleasures, and blessings we have in the togetherness we share.

Love isn't about spending money or material possessions. In honor of the occasion, we here at Art Food Fun would prefer if you didn't purchase anything from us today either. We'll still be here tomorrow, and throughout the year. *smile*

Take a moment today to really consider your buying habits year-round and the global impact of the way you live. Is there anything you think should change?

Need more? Get "Affluenza" the book. Get the movie or the other information on it too, just don't buy it today.

This year, tell big business that your family is more important than their profits.

May your Buy Nothing Day be filled with warmth, love, and the company of those you hold most dear.
