Which brands do you boycott for petty reason?

Fortnight, because they jumped on a bandwagon instead of releasing the open beta for the original game they advertised on the Yogscast.

30 years ago Bausch & Lomb offered a $3 mail in rebate on contact lens solution. I was going to buy the solution regardless, but I'll take an extra $3.

The rebate rquired the receipt and UPC cut out from the box to be mailed in. The box contained 2 bar codes on the outside and one on an inside flap - none of which were labeled "UPC Code". So I cut them all out and put in the envelope because I had companies deny rebates in the past for not providing all requested proof of purchase.

3 weeks later I received a letter from Bausch & Lomb saying my rebate request was denied due to incomplete proof of purchase.

I've never bought another B&L product in the past 30 years. And the irony is that, had they never offered the rebate, I still would have bought their product and continued to buy more. Their unwillingness to uphold their end of their own promotional offer is what pissed me off.

A local sandwich shop because the owner got pissed off when I complained that he shouldn't offer delivery if it's going to take 3 hours to get a sandwich on a slow day.

The local pizza shop. They gave me shit for buying the largest pizza size when mathematically its the best value. I think they just don't like making them because for them its the worst profit. Every few years I'll pop in and ask if it's still Frank running the place?

None. Current boycotts are based on choices involving human dignity and rights.

Taco bell crunchy taco shells got too thin so now they're always cracked. Fuck all of them and their mothers.

I hate ads. If I see an ad for your prodct, I won't buy it... I don't watch TV. Adblocker is my king

I spent many years working in retail. I often don't shop in the same places I've worked, especially if I didn't leave on good terms LOL

Pizza Pizza. My dad was once in change of ordering pizza for a company lunch, and Pizza Pizza cancelled his order without notifying him, leaving him with a roomful of hungry people. When he phoned to ask for an update on the order, they blamed him for not calling to confirm an order he had already placed.

It was probably just that one franchise that was poorly run, but we've tried to avoid the company ever since. I think I've bought pizza from them maybe twice in my life.

Buona Beef because:

1. Their slogan is "Chicago's Original Italian Beef" but they opened in 1981
2. They had a bunch of billboards with dick jokes that relied on mispronouncing "buona"

Gillette because I vaguely remember some preachy anti-men advert they did years ago. Just left a bad taste in my mouth, so I don't do business with them.

I haven't gone to Pizza Delight (a chain in Atlantic Canada) in over ten years.

I went there as a teenager with my improv troupe and I received my meal over twenty minutes after everyone else had received their dessert. I was offered the opportunity to add a salad to my meal for a 50% discount, which I refused.

Now I understand that stuff happens sometimes, the service industry is hectic and I really didn't mind the screw up that much. The only reason I don't go there anymore is that the waitress never even apologized. (Also they're overpriced, not that good, and they got rid of the bread toasting station which was the only reason anyone wanted to go there in the first place)
