That's what I do, too, except for one. When a new guy, gay, took charge of JC Penney, where I always bought their linens and had just outfitted a bedroom with their curtains and all bedding, this gay guy changed their catalog. I got one with all gay men in various poses together throughout the catalog - no women in it. Then, I got one with all gay women in it in various poses together, no men in it. Both were disgusting, and I called their central office, which is located in the Dallas area, and told them never to send me a catalog again, and take me off their list.
I haven't bought anything from them since then. I cut up their card I had. I saw on line, their prices went up and the linen department was much more expensive and choices were much less than they had before.
I hated that happened because I bought so much from them through the years before this gay guy changed them, making "gay" their reason for existing and trying to get my money for their gay agenda. I don't know what their financials are today, whether they are doing fine or struggling to remain alive.
That is the only time I have done that to a company. Don't invade my house with gay catalogs and that is what I told the JC Penny person I talked to.
@Victoria33 I remember when Penney's did that. I never saw the catalog myself, and I'm glad I didn't.
My local JCP is a graveyard. I don't know how it stays open.
I need to correct myself, there's one thing I don't like to buy---pink-ribboned Susan Komen items. The other day at Kroger, when I was paying, the girl at the register--maybe 20 years old---asked me if I wanted to make a donation to breast cancer research. I asked if it was Komen, she said yes, and I replied no. The girl looked around to make sure she wasn't being overheard and said quietly, "I don't blame you."
