Maybe you have already heard of the “economic blackout” planned for this Friday February 28th. If not, let me share the details and some of the reasons why I am partaking:

WHAT THIS IS

A 24-hour blackout that will run from midnight Thursday 2/27 through midnight Friday 2/28/25

WHAT NOT TO DO:

Do not make any purchases

Do not shop online, or in-store

No Amazon, No Walmart, No Best Buy

Nowhere!

Do not spend money on:

Fast Food

Gas

Major Retailers

Do not use Credit or Debit Cards for non essential spending

WHAT YOU CAN DO:

Only buy essentials if absolutely necessary 

(Food, Medicine, Emergency Supplies)

If you must spend, ONLY support small, local businesses.

WHY THIS MATTERS

~ Corporations and banks only care about their bottom line.

~ If we disrupt the economy for just ONE day, it sends a powerful message.
