Our policy too. I buy nothing from Amazon, nor do we use their streaming services.Anymore, I try to buy as much as I can from local brick and mortars.
I've never used Amazon, and I'm sure that I never will. Though a lot of folks seem to like it.
Hardware stores have become obsolete. And the Home Depot and Lowe's type stores mainly just carry that shit Chinese ash metal stuff. So if I need some good aircraft stainless, I have to order that online, just as an example. But there are dedicated places to get that stuff. Same with car parts. If I can't find it in NAPA, I'l go to some place like Summit Racing to order.
Never Amazon or anything like that.
I detest bezos.
