We all like cheap stuff and the convenience of having shit delivered in 1 day, but you must stop buying from Amazon. Our great patriot solders sacrifice so much being away from family and friends for long periods of time or even die in the battlefield, the least we all can do is stop buying from Amazon and support your local stores. It's a very very small sacrifice. Think of ways other big tech can be hurt financially, this is the way WE can show our power.

Here's the trick I use all the time. I use Amazon as a search engine to find what I want. I get the information (mfg and model #) from the Amazon website. I read the comment section and take note of the product rating from which I determine the brand I want. Then I take the mfg and model # and do a Internet search to find the manufacturer and buy directly from the manufacturer.

I never use Amazon to buy anything. I also detest ebay because of long past bad experiences. As far as clothes and shoes are concerned, this tends to be a more involved purchase simply because of size variations and wearing it is the ultimate determinant for a purchase. If you go to a Big Box Top retailer, especially all those that have benefited financially from the small business lock downs, I suggest using them to determine what you want to buy, get the information off the product, and then go home and look it up on the Internet. I won't step foot in a Walmart and as far as I am concerned, they are the enemy of mankind.

With regards to meat and poultry, living in a small town also allows you to make purchases directly off the farm. You can join a food club or link up with a neighbor or two, to buy a side of beef, lamb, pork, or even get farm fresh dairy and eggs.

For electronics, there are a good variety of on-line distributors like Tiger Direct, and others. I never set foot in a Best Buy because I was confronted about not wearing a face mask and the manager was a prick and disrespected me after I mentioned my disability. Best Buy is a has been. The Geek Squad has kept them afloat for the past several years. Good ridden to them when go into bankruptcy. I look forward to the day when that happens.

You will have to do your own research on this. I don't ever hear of them making radical left-wing statements or donations to Antifa or BLM, and similar, so they pass muster for me..... so far. Moreover, they are only one alternative to other on-line electronic/computer stores.
