I knew Amazon is a shady company but only stuck around and still use them as I don’t know as much online website that sell stuff I want as well as not being too mortally corrupted.
The sort of stuff I tend to buy:
- Videogames
- CDs
- Clothes (mostly men as I am a guy)
- Books?
Please don’t suggest me something like Walmart as…
- I am not American, I’m British.
- Even if I am American, I would of shopped there so it pointless to even call it an “alternatives”.
Would be great, except there are almost no local businesses anymore. Everything’s a franchise, in fact, a tactic that’s becoming increasingly popular is for corporate stores to disguise themselves as mom and pop shops. Local shops are effectively dead. Capitalism killed it.
Frankly, this sounds kinda conspiratorial. You’re not willing to step into a local shop for fear that it might not actually be a local shop?
Otherwise, there truly are more options in my area than in your area, in which case, I’m sorry to hear that.
(Edit: typo)
Even a franchise is run by a local, risk-taking entrepreneur.
