Costco is another one. Home Goods, Marshalls, Kohls works too. Grocery shopping is Aldi, Price Rite, and Wegmans. I'll do Walmart also as last resort. I know they're bad but they are kinda the villain you expect. Target was that good guy that went evil that you know they could be better so the hope is a boycott shocks them back to the light side. I'm lucky enough to live in a medium city so I have a lot of options.

"Target was the good guy"

Oh for the love of class consciousness! They just said what they thought would bring more sales, they never cared about their workers who they extract value from.

There are no "good" corporations. Just less bad ones.

Last I checked, Costco has a high employee retention rate, so people at least seem content to work for them. They seem more interested is stability then infinite growth like the others.

It’s like voting for Democrats: yeah sure they suck, but not as much as the other options

I don’t live in a place with many options besides Aldi and Walmart.

Throwing in the hat for Trader Joe's

I used to do most of my grocery shopping at Trader Joe's. When they came out calling the NLRB unconstitutional, I never went back. Fuck Traitor Joe's.
