We do the best we can, sometimes circumstances aren't what we'd like, in which case we do what we need to do! <3 Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05085387707813881571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069660946567587305.post-75324405804341142292020-05-03T11:20:47.723-04:002020-05-03T11:20:47.723-04:00It really is a mess.

So I had to go sideways, and it is still possible I will have to get a few things from companies I've been avoiding. Accepting that has decreased my anxiety, which frees me up from the paralyzing stress of thinking I won't have any way to get stuff. I'm working it out, and we'll see!The Student-turned-Doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08506070687255989103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069660946567587305.post-85882085873588213152020-05-03T08:56:55.076-04:002020-05-03T08:56:55.076-04:00Definitely disappointing that the chips were crush...Definitely disappointing that the chips were crushed! I know you'll definitely find a delicious way to use them but definitely disappointing if you can't use them for what you originally intended. Ive been pushing myself to go to the stores when I have to but have also been trying to find some alternatives to these companies too. It's also so hard because I believe the it's still difficult to get delivery times from the local grocery stores. It shouldn't be this stressful to get groceries and essentials!Sarah https://www.blogger.com/profile/11492583565520188461noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069660946567587305.post-64305309776251496632020-05-02T21:16:29.949-04:002020-05-02T21:16:29.949-04:00I ordered from Target because I didn't want to...I ordered from Target because I didn't want to order from Amazon, and in general during normal life I avoid buying things online in favor of brick and mortar stores in my own community. But it may be the case, at some point, that I will be one of the people who can't get what I need without using one of the problematic companies. I accept that, but I also will continue to try to figure out ways to avoid it.The Student-turned-Doctorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08506070687255989103noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2069660946567587305.post-89817287589372131652020-05-02T19:41:36.898-04:002020-05-02T19:41:36.898-04:00Oh, such a shame that the chips got crushed!

But excellent that you got Justin's Dark Chocolate PB cups.<br />In normal times we do a combination of a Coles delivery that comes without bags (they carry it in a box and unpack it in the kitchen) and me shopping with my reusable bags. These days almost all our food comes from weekly Coles deliveries and of course they can't come in so there are so many plastic bags in my house right now! Plastic is unavoidable in these times.<br /><br />Also thanks for your note up top! I have been following this in the US. I know for some people they have no other option but to order from those companies, but for those who can find alternatives, that is the way to go! I've had a personal boycott on Amazon for the last few years. I was so sad when they bought Book Depository!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05085387707813881571noreply@blogger.com
