My little black book of brands I choose to spend my money with

A few weeks ago, I wrote a piece about the reasons I really, really don’t like shopping. It’s about the stuff that make up our things, the gradual cleaning up of my consumption and why it takes a lot for me to part with my money.

Before I embark on a new customer relationship with a brand or business, I will spend literal hours researching different options to figure out who is most deserving of my hard earned cash in terms of what they’re offering and the good they are doing in the world.

I have done this for years, even when buying the smallest thing. All this research has been distilled down into my little black book of brands I choose to spend my money with and that I endorse.

I call it The List and I occasionally share a peek into it. 

The first instalment is here:
