Please recommend good online stores that are NOT AMAZON!

[TenThousandSteps]

I'm boycotting Amazon, particularly today on Black Friday. Please can you tell me your favourite online stores/catalogues for clothes (kids, women and men) as well as gifts, including jewellery.

I'm feeling so uninspired after months sat working from home so need some new browsing material so that I can get my Christmas shopping sorted.

There was a brilliant thread recently either on here or in the Christmas topic on exactly this subject - let me see if I can find it!

Have you looked on Etsy? I love that site. Will be great for gifts and jewellery. It's individual craftspeople and traders around the world.

Also came to recommend Etsy. Especially for jewellery.

One tip though, lots of the designers on their also have their own website where the prices can sometimes be a bit cheaper because they aren't passing on the Etsy charge. So find on Etsy then Google the shop to see if they have it themselves. Obviously you don't necessarily get the protection Etsy gives you that way though.

Amazon often tells you who supplies. So then go directly to that company's website.

Oh My Goodness! Thank you! I'm going to have a very busy (and expensive) weekend! Sorry Mr Bezos (who has made $66,000,000,000 over the pandemic whilst 40 million people are now in horrific poverty).
