I suggest we turn off or unplug our devices that week too let them go deaf and blind.

Cancelled prime and deleted my account a while back but for this occasion I'll pressure extended family to join in a lil bit.

I deleted my Amazon subscriptions. I have also been sharing a Costco membership with my neighbor but next visit, I'm buying my own.

Canceled my Amazon subscriptions.

I use the cart as my wish list and buy directly from the vendor later.
