 BUY NOTHING DAY November 08, 2005 11:25 AM

It's that time of the year again: BUY NOTHING DAY.

In less than a month, millions of people around the world will ask for the ultimate refund -- by opting out of consumer culture. For 24 hours on Buy Nothing Day, November 25, we remember that no one was born to shop, we pause, and make a small choice to participate by not participating. What will you do to tell Nike, McDonald's, Walmart and the rest that enough is enough? Why not run with some ideas dreamt up by the more than 3,500 jammers who took part in last year's biggest ever Buy Nothing Day? Set up credit card cut-ups, don white coats and vaccinate against affluenza, give out free samples of nothing -- anything to show that the best things in life are free. You can find more ideas and tools in the Action Pyramid at:

Last year was a stellar success with the launch of the original
JammerGroups. Let's make the day even bigger this year with the introduction of or our all new JammerGroups. If you haven't done so already, join your new local JammerGroup to coordinate with like-minded individuals:

We would love to hear what you're up to this year. As your BND plans come together, let us know at:
