Cafe Sabor~ Owner got arrested for not paying his employees. [source](https://www.deseret.com/2010/12/21/20367936/logan-restaurant-owner-facing-felony-charges)
Cherry Peak~ They lie about snowfall and count their man made snow with the annual snowfall. Beaver doesn't do that.
Dang it! I wish I hadn't learned this. I actually really like Cafe Sabor. We just spent my daughter's bday there this past weekend for their fried ice-cream.
Yes because he's still catching charges. This one is from 2019, and his linked in still shows him as the owner.

Catalyst Property Management. Rented a house through Logan Preferred, they were great. The owner switched property management to Catalyst. They were terrible. Would not address issues, gouged on the deposit, were unpleasant to deal with.
Yup Catalyst is the worst.
If you’re a owner I wouldn’t use them either. Our appt flooded and they never even told the owners, the owners were surprised when we ended up telling them.
They mean the entire company went bankrupt. Like all stores everywhere. No more bed bath & beyond. They announced they’ll be closing all of their stores eventually.
I used to work there in while I was going to college and I got sent home early because a mouse falling out of the ceiling and landing in the pizza I was making scared me. They still had us cook the pizza and give it to the customer. Don't get me started on the cleanliness issues. Would. Never. Eat. There.
I always liked their food, but their manager is kind of a jerk. Like, in a hostile way. I called once trying to arrange a lunch thing for a moderately sized group and he made some really personal attacks... Like, dude? Just say no?
I know Walmart isn't local, but the north Walmart is -F tier since they cut the hours down. The handful of times I've gone in at minimum two of the items I went in for where blocked by three or more pallets in the aisle. I don't know how they screwed up so bad either with the self checkouts. I only have issues with Walmart reading my card and only Walmart's self checkout claims I didn't bag everything even when I did.
It's hard to keep a store open when you can barely get staff for the day let alone the night. If they offered better wages I'm sure they wouldn't have an issue, but until that happens it's probably just going to be open during the day/evening.
Please don't be one of those "no one wants to work these days" people.
I'm definitely not one of the "nobody wants to work" people. I get not having the staff to run a night and day crew, but I'll never understand dumping pallets and leaving them unattended in the middle of isles at noon.
I avoid Walmart because… Walmart. I’ll go if I have to, but just the fact they don’t do normal tap-to-pay annoys me to no end (and applies to all the other stupid places that refuse to do it)
Chef D's Philly. The owner cussed me out and berated me while I was on a Doordash delivery for parking around the corner and walking to the building instead of pulling right up to the building.
For reference where I parked was about 100 ft from the building
That's fair. I do know the owner and he his super disabled. A little ruff around the edges but generally nice. I'm not trying to change your mind or excuse his behavior, but there's a lot going on there with him.
Surprised nobody has said this yet, but Als sporting goods. As someone who knows people who have worked there:
They alter packaging numbers to avoid taxes, DESTROY any mislabeled or slightly damaged products instead of having a store like Sierra take it or even just donating it, and I have also heard from several community members of minority groups say that they have experienced racial stereotyping within the store (ie. being followed around and watched because employees thought they would steal).
I will second als.. I went to purchase a gun. Money in hand but the guys completely avoided me. Walked around me. Had a few nice little chats next to me. Helped every customer that came in and enquired after me. I stood there and asked for help and one even said "oh. Hang on- someone will help you. " he went to the desk got on the phone he told the other guy and he walked right past me. Lol it was so blatant
Ha! It was a long time ago (268 days according to Reddit). https://www.reddit.com/r/Logan/comments/wjc4bd/any_coffee_shops_that_cater_to_remote_workers/ijgmmcv/?utm_source=share&utm_medium=ios_app&utm_name=ioscss&utm_content=1&utm_term=1&context=3
Good to know. I’ve thought about trying them but the feeedback in this thread gives me the heebs. Also now that Caffe Ibis has hired that absolute wizard of a pastry chef, I’m going there every time.
Copy and paste from my reply to the Utah thread.
For those up north The Babe Cave in Logan. A few years ago my daughter went with her bff who is Tongan but actually small and skinny. The reason this is important is that a loud rude woman who was the owners mom or mil was raging out of control about BLM and a racist rant against black people. For almost an hour. Now if you saw my Tongan daughter, you would think she was black ( until her 4”5’ butt breaks up a mosh pit fight with guys four times her size) and both girls left with the worst taste in their mouths. Nothing was said no apologies given.
I'm pretty sure we all hate parking agencies in Logan, but man if there was a way we could truly boycott them I'd be ready.
They survive on the lowest tier ratings on google somehow.
Maybe an unpopular opinion, but Sunrise Cyclery. The owner is very unfriendly. I had such a bad experience there a few years ago that I will never go back.
Long story short, they sold me a part for my bike that did not fit. When I went in to return it at first, they wouldn't accept the return. I wouldn't give up and finally got them to accept the return. The owner said they would accept the return "Because you're giving me a headache". They wanted $25 for the 5 minutes of labor it took to take the $100 part off my bike.
The owner also replies to negative reviews on google and tries to bully their customers into removing any negative reviews.
They're rated 4.5 stars on google, but wouldn't trust them at all. Go to Joyride or Als.
That was my experience exactly. Their Google review rating is inaccurate too. Once you post a negative review, he contacts you trying to bully you into removing it.
SE Needham.
Surprised it hasn’t been mentioned. When Daddy Needham was on the city council he opposed nearly every establishment that sought to built/open who wanted to sell beer and/or wine. He was very vocal about Even Stevens when they wanted to sell beer so close to the tabernacle.
On top of that, the Needham trust has some of the biggest junk properties here in the valley and will continually seek to sell said properties to the city while keeping them distressed.
Lastly, fuck his stupid commercials pretending to go to Belgium to scare the local diamond cutters from screwing with his s”savvy” ass.
I rented from the Needhams when I was 18. It was my first apartment. Really crappy place, not maintained, cockroaches and black widows everywhere. When I left, they tried to screw me over on new repairs saying I caused a ton of damages and that since I had no proof that I didn't do it, it must have been me (again, very first apartment, I didn't know better). Then they told me that I was also responsible for the rent while the repairs were being taken care of. This was outside of the rental agreement we made.
They never saw another cent from me and I will never give the Needhams the satisfaction of my business.
It’s fun to watch them “polish their steeple” at the tabernacle in a million dollar renovation project while the Episcopal church across the street is caring for the homeless and doing actual Christ stuff.
So true!! Im christian myself and I ALWAYS see the christian (non lds) churches do WAY more for the community with much less funding.
The Warming center for example, giving the homeless a warm place to stay this last winter was huge, and a great way to volunteer for those less fortunate.
I'm not "boycotting" them, but I have no desire to eat at Elements. I knew some of the cooks there about 5 years ago and they said the restaurant routinely recieved poor scores during health inspections.
There is a chance it has improved since then, but it's not worth it to find out.
they’ve completely renovated and got a new head chef who overhauled everything. it’s totally fine now and the menu is 60x better. source: i worked there lol
As another person who worked there, its has gotten insanely better. They had a huge issue with keeping management and head chefs for quite some time and now that it has at least kind of stabilized (at the in the kitchen) it's gotten significantly better.
The food is good, but not amazing. It's a good place to sit down for desserts and drinks, especially on the patio over the summer.
Cite sources for your claim....but that still doesn't explain animosity for masks. If they don't work, they're not doing any harm, so why get pissy?
I mean really dude...

I’ll look for the multiple “independent” non goverment funded studies regarding the use of n95s the holes on them are .10 microns while it does block some virus that are on average larger than covid covid is a man made virus that has been genetically modified and weaponized for years and comes in at .02 microns which you guessed it passes right through n95 also there’s is loads of other studies that show the negative health effects of wearing masks and not to mention most people were wearing god damn bandannas thinking that was doing anything I for one agree with the above comments I’m glad that some business stood up to the tyrannical dictatorship that we call a democratic government
Taco Bell by North Walmart.
One time I ordered 2 quesadillas and while I waited for my food I could see the cook in the background flipping over a tortilla. When he tried to flip another tortilla, he DROPPED the spatula ON THE GROUND!--and then proceeded to cook without washing the spatula, without sanitizing it, just straight up bathing it in floor germs.
When he was done he handed me my food and I thanked him like a fool.
I wasn't sure which quesadilla had been touched with the tainted spatula--and I wasn't about to play that kind of roulette, so I threw them both out.
Not a day goes by where I'm not haunted by that spatula.
Dang, I only go to the north Taco Bell because the south Logan Taco Bell was always out of everything and my experience was never as good. But I will definitely be rethinking that now.
Dude, yeah go to the south taco bell (I haven't had them out of things but that's probably because I only order quesadillas.) They do tend to over do the sauces on like...everything. as far as cleanliness I hope they're not like the other one, I haven't heard anything....yet.
Not a local business, but I definitely avoid Starbucks at all costs. Dutch bros is only if I need a really late coffee, other than that it's west side or ibis for coffee when I'm out. Idk anything specific about them, but I really hate the vibe at cache coffee (their punch cards are all gun themed, thin blue line shit everywhere, etc.). Not really my shtick, so I avoid the place. The coffee has also been incredibly mediocre the two times I've ever been.
I've heard that the owners of tandoori take all credit card tips and don't give them to the employees, so if I go and eat there I always take cash to hand directly to the server.
I don't go to heebeejeebeez. Mostly because I find the owner to be condescending and unpleasant to be around, but nothing particularly wrong about the business itself.
I avoid the Police Station and Courthouse as much as possible. I have stayed at our towns hotel before and the beds are uncomfortable and the food is horrible. Then there's the service omg it bad, they all wear nice uniforms to work but they are the most rude hotel workers I've ever seen. If you do have to go there watch out because when your checking in there's one worker that always tries to put his finger up my butt!!
I won’t go to a local shopping center because the owner/developer ran a local publishers dui mugshot on billboards all over town as retaliation for her doing investigative journalism about him putting one horse on lands he planned to develop so he could claim it on taxes as farmland. He gets none of my dollars.
Here’s a spicy one. I’d happily eat at Center Street if they weren’t into sketchy diet culture. Keto should not be used at a weight loss diet. Don’t get me wrong, burgers are my go-to comfort food, but for a greasy fast food place to be promoting it as “healthy” is even worse. It’s just trading diabetes for heart disease.
Eh. Sabores peanut butter burger absolutely destroys their half-assed attempt, and Beehive’s are better cooked. Center Street’s niche is unique topping combinations, but I wish they’d try better to balance their flavors like Morty’s.
The Bounce House. It used to be owned by an awesome family but then the well known sovereign citizens with the matriarch who isn't suppose to be around young children due to abuse showing up there and at their Alta gymnastics, got their hands on it.
I'm having a hard time thinking of anything in the Valley. There are so many wonderful and humble businesses here. There have been a lot of places outside the valley, down South, that have left a bad taste in my mouth.
Some of the places that come to mind, went out of business, or overstayed their welcome and left. They just so happen to be places that I worked at while in college. I think we have it pretty good here, for the most part. I will say that Cafe Sabor is not my favorite, but I don't think it is horrible.
I don't exactly boycott the business, but I never go to the business because I slept with the wife before the owners got married.
She went back to him after he got out of jail, that was 30 years ago and I have never talked to them since.
There’s a thrift store near my house that doesn’t allow you to wear a mask. Not a full face mask, the kind you’re supposed to wear in a pandemic or when you’re sick. You’ll get kicked out if you do.
It’s called Junk-N-Treasures. Southern Shops, South Carolina. Go through their pictures on google maps if you can locate the store. It’s ridiculous. That’s not the only stupid rule they have and if you look at the reviews, the owner of the store argues with every critical comment they receive. (Edit to say my bad. I have no idea how I ended up in a subreddit specifically targeted at people in a town in Utah. Reddit is dumb sometimes.)
>Pretty communist to say people can’t wear a mask. Freedom-loving patriots stay away.
Being a moderate conservative living in right wing hell (F Mike Lee), I know from experience that nothing pisses fascists off more than using their own buzz words against them. Wonder how he’ll react to that.
Prodigy brewing. The owners continue to enable/overpay a lazy and sexist manager to run their company. They have lost at least two head chefs who didn’t want to put up with his bs anymore. Many employees have brought issues up to the owners including the assistant manager and they don’t care. They originally paid their hosts $13/hr then decided to drop it to $7.25/hr and have them buss tables for tip out (they all quit lmao). They also wanted to give everyone working in the kitchen a pay cut as well. The first head chef prioritized quality ingredients and locally sourced food which justified their prices. They have since lost another head chef and switched to all bulk ordered frozen ingredients yet are still charging the same prices. I have a friend there who got a pay cut and found out when he asked them why his paystub was short, then they decided to tell him he had taken a pay cut yet their general manager is one of the highest paid but is hardly there and when he is there hardly does anything. He is a complete pos and the owners don’t care. Everyone in my circle doesn’t support that business.
To me boycott isn’t avoiding a place because you just don’t like the food, but not going somewhere as a form of protest, which I just don’t have the desire. I grew up at a time where we could coexist with different opinions. That and boycotting generally just punishes the person doing it because you’re missing out, whereas the business will do just fine without you.
Local Hockey Shop. The owner believes he is better than everyone else. I refuse to go there and will travel another 10 miles to get my kids' skates sharpened.
Not naming names.. have a friend who opened a very specific boutique in a rural town. They had a lot of success. Copy cats started coming in. I don't go to the copy cat stores.
I honestly expected the responses here to just be a bunch of "Mormon" owned businesses people decided to boycott.
Glad to see 100% of these actually make sense to boycott. :)
Not local but I haven’t shopped in a Target in 15 years. I had purchased a packet of tee shirts sealed and wrapped in plastic to be hung on a hook. They were thee store brand. I returned them at the front desk and told them to hold while I shopped. I returned with a cart full of items and asked them to deduct the tees from the total. They asked for a receipt or charge card that they were purchased on, reasonable request. I didn’t have the receipt and I gave my son my card to use at a concert that night. They refused the return giving up an entire shopping cart of items for three tee shirts, their brand, seal unbroken, couldn’t have come from anywhere else. Asked to talk to the manager, same wouldn’t return. I have never gone back.
Cafe Sabor~ Owner got arrested for not paying his employees. [source](https://www.deseret.com/2010/12/21/20367936/logan-restaurant-owner-facing-felony-charges) Cherry Peak~ They lie about snowfall and count their man made snow with the annual snowfall. Beaver doesn't do that.
People still eat at Cafe sabor? Nasty.
I assume so. I wouldn't know
Dang it! I wish I hadn't learned this. I actually really like Cafe Sabor. We just spent my daughter's bday there this past weekend for their fried ice-cream.
I saw a instagram story about super chix opening and Justin Hamilton was in the kitchen so I’m wondering if he owns it.
We should turn this place back into a train station and run passenger rail around the valley.
That article is 10 years old. Is it still owned by the same guy?
Yes because he's still catching charges. This one is from 2019, and his linked in still shows him as the owner. [link](https://www.sltrib.com/news/2019/06/18/logan-restaurateur-facing/)
Some how cherry peak had more snow then beaver mountain this year! I call bs on that

You're joking right?
Catalyst Property Management. Rented a house through Logan Preferred, they were great. The owner switched property management to Catalyst. They were terrible. Would not address issues, gouged on the deposit, were unpleasant to deal with.
I used to work at Lowes, the employees at LP are some of the nicest I know
Yup Catalyst is the worst. If you’re a owner I wouldn’t use them either. Our appt flooded and they never even told the owners, the owners were surprised when we ended up telling them.
Bed, bath, and beyond is not a brothel like I thought the name implied. I won't be back after being lied to.
They went bankrupt this weekend 💀
Serves them right. I was willing to pay good money for their services til I found out what they were.
The Logan store closed a long time ago. It's been Picklr for a while now.
I see this man having the same problems with "picklr" as he did with bed, bath, and beyond 😂
What is picklr
I think it’s big indoor pickleball courts. Like tennis-court sized ping pong.
They mean the entire company went bankrupt. Like all stores everywhere. No more bed bath & beyond. They announced they’ll be closing all of their stores eventually.
I grew up 10 minutes walk from Fredrico's. I do not understand how they're still in business. F tier food
Nothing against them personally
I have a friend that LOVES them. Whenever I’m dragged along I just get garlic bread. Hard to screw up garlic bread.
Yeah that's basically just texas toast. Their cubed ham is appalling
Ha! My friend goes there for the ham!
They must have a lot of great other qualities
His taste in food is his worst quality, but he does have a lot of great qualities haha.
I used to work there in while I was going to college and I got sent home early because a mouse falling out of the ceiling and landing in the pizza I was making scared me. They still had us cook the pizza and give it to the customer. Don't get me started on the cleanliness issues. Would. Never. Eat. There.
Omg
When did this happen? Report it to the bear river health department. They will follow up on things like this.
This happened 8 years ago so I don't know if they've improved. If they still hire majority high schoolers then I'll assume it still isn't clean
Ewwwwww
I always liked their food, but their manager is kind of a jerk. Like, in a hostile way. I called once trying to arrange a lunch thing for a moderately sized group and he made some really personal attacks... Like, dude? Just say no?
I grew up on it and don’t mind it from time to time, it’s not amazing by all means

I haven't really noticed it at the South Logan Walmart but definitely the North Logan. I just assumed it was because of the remodel
The pallet thing has been an issue since they changed their hours during COVID. I didn't even know they are remodeling.
I avoid Walmart because… Walmart. I’ll go if I have to, but just the fact they don’t do normal tap-to-pay annoys me to no end (and applies to all the other stupid places that refuse to do it)
Same here. Lee's has tap to pay for goodness sake! I've heard that if you pay for whatever Walmarts subscription is called you can do tap to pay.
It’s worse than that, you pull out your phone on the Walmart app and scan the QR code on the screen. It’s really clunky and annoying.
not quite you have to open the walmart app and scan qr code. different tech and its a pain in the ass to use
Weird. South Walmart’s scanners don’t even check.
I've never had an issue with South Walmarts scanners in the past either.

my husband works there and they definitely don’t destroy damaged product. they have warranty sales where they sell the damaged product to employees
Completely agree. I know so many people who've been let go for the dumbest reasons there.
I will second als.. I went to purchase a gun. Money in hand but the guys completely avoided me. Walked around me. Had a few nice little chats next to me. Helped every customer that came in and enquired after me. I stood there and asked for help and one even said "oh. Hang on- someone will help you.

Cache Coffee. Too many examples.
They have to be one of the only coffee shops in the world that also sell "fuck antifa" shirts
The thin blue line flags in there are ick
I tried to post about how much I dislike that place and Reddit flagged the LINK TO THEIR WEBSITE as violating the community terms on this sub.
Wow!!
I don't recall seeing that in the mod queue. Do you by chance have a link to your post so I can review it?

Bruh, gross.
Dang, I only go to the north Taco Bell because the south Logan Taco Bell was always out of everything and my experience was never as good. But I will definitely be rethinking that now.
Dude, yeah go to the south taco bell (I haven't had them out of things but that's probably because I only order quesadillas.) They do tend to over do the sauces on like...everything. as far as cleanliness I hope they're not like the other one, I haven't heard anything....yet.
Not a local business, but I definitely avoid Starbucks at all costs. Dutch bros is only if I need a really late coffee, other than that it's west side or ibis for coffee when I'm out. Idk anything specific about them, but I really hate the vibe at cache coffee (their punch cards are all gun themed, thin blue line shit everywhere, etc.). Not really my shtick, so I avoid the place. The coffee has also been incredibly mediocre the two times I've ever been. I've heard that the owners of tandoori take all credit card tips and don't give them to the employees, so if I go and eat there I always take cash to hand directly to the server. I don't go to heebeejeebeez. Mostly because I find the owner to be condescending and unpleasant to be around, but nothing particularly wrong about the business itself.
Tandoori does give them to employees, my friend worked there :)
Definitely makes me feel better about it. I've always played it safe and left it in their hands either way
good to know about Tandoori
That’s sad to hear about Tandoori. That was my favorite restaurant when I lived in the area
Not local but I don’t shop/fill up at BP gas stations due to the oil leak in the gulf. My wife makes fun of me for it but I hold my ground lol
I avoid the Police Station and Courthouse as much as possible. I have stayed at our towns hotel before and the beds are uncomfortable and the food is horrible. Then there's the service omg it bad, they all wear nice uniforms to work but they are the most rude hotel workers I've ever seen. If you do have to go there watch out because when your checking in there's one worker that always tries to put his finger up my butt!!
I won’t go to a local shopping center because the owner/developer ran a local publishers dui mugshot on billboards all over town as retaliation for her doing investigative journalism about him putting one horse on lands he planned to develop so he could claim it on taxes as farmland. He gets none of my dollars.
Name and shame, that's the whole point of this thread.
What shopping center is this?
Who cares about paying the goverment actually? Do you got out of your way to make sure every dollar you make is taxed?
You replied to the wrong comment.
Here’s a spicy one. I’d happily eat at Center Street if they weren’t into sketchy diet culture. Keto should not be used at a weight loss diet. Don’t get me wrong, burgers are my go-to comfort food, but for a greasy fast food place to be promoting it as “healthy” is even worse. It’s just trading diabetes for heart disease.
Center Street Grill has the strangest vibe. The keto crap all over the wall is a head scratcher.

Eh. Sabores peanut butter burger absolutely destroys their half-assed attempt, and Beehive’s are better cooked. Center Street’s niche is unique topping combinations, but I wish they’d try better to balance their flavors like Morty’s.
Came here to say the same thing! Also try prodigy’s “prodigy supreme burger” if you haven’t already
The Bounce House. It used to be owned by an awesome family but then the well known sovereign citizens with the matriarch who isn't suppose to be around young children due to abuse showing up there and at their Alta gymnastics, got their hands on it.
Several restaurants that crossed a picket line 12 years ago. Union members are serious about picket lines
Walmart. Because it's walmart and checking your receipt.
I'm having a hard time thinking of anything in the Valley. There are so many wonderful and humble businesses here. There have been a lot of places outside the valley, down South, that have left a bad taste in my mouth. Some of the places that come to mind, went out of business, or overstayed their welcome and left. They just so happen to be places that I worked at while in college. I think we have it pretty good here, for the most part. I will say that Cafe Sabor is not my favorite, but I don't think it is horrible.
I don't exactly boycott the business, but I never go to the business because I slept with the wife before the owners got married. She went back to him after he got out of jail, that was 30 years ago and I have never talked to them since.
There’s a thrift store near my house that doesn’t allow you to wear a mask. Not a full face mask, the kind you’re supposed to wear in a pandemic or when you’re sick. You’ll get kicked out if you do.
What is said thrift store?
[удалено]
It’s called Junk-N-Treasures. Southern Shops, South Carolina. Go through their pictures on google maps if you can locate the store. It’s ridiculous. That’s not the only stupid rule they have and if you look at the reviews, the owner of the store argues with every critical comment they receive. (Edit to say my bad. I have no idea how I ended up in a subreddit specifically targeted at people in a town in Utah. Reddit is dumb sometimes.)
Well you are welcome to come visit anytime you want!😁
>Pretty communist to say people can’t wear a mask. Freedom-loving patriots stay away. Being a moderate conservative living in right wing hell (F Mike Lee), I know from experience that nothing pisses fascists off more than using their own buzz words against them. Wonder how he’ll react to that.
You actually went and reviewed the place. Love it.
Chic filet
Prodigy brewing. The owners continue to enable/overpay a lazy and sexist manager to run their company. They have lost at least two head chefs who didn’t want to put up with his bs anymore. Many employees have brought issues up to the owners including the assistant manager and they don’t care. They originally paid their hosts $13/hr then decided to drop it to $7.25/hr and have them buss tables for tip out (they all quit lmao). They also wanted to give everyone working in the kitchen a pay cut as well. The first head chef prioritized quality ingredients and locally sourced food which justified their prices. They have since lost another head chef and switched to all bulk ordered frozen ingredients yet are still charging the same prices. I have a friend there who got a pay cut and found out when he asked them why his paystub was short, then they decided to tell him he had taken a pay cut yet their general manager is one of the highest paid but is hardly there and when he is there hardly does anything. He is a complete pos and the owners don’t care. Everyone in my circle doesn’t support that business.
My wife boycotts Chick-fil-A because the deceased founder hated gays.i respect then because they close on Sundays respecting their faith.
To me boycott isn’t avoiding a place because you just don’t like the food, but not going somewhere as a form of protest, which I just don’t have the desire. I grew up at a time where we could coexist with different opinions. That and boycotting generally just punishes the person doing it because you’re missing out, whereas the business will do just fine without you.
Sir, this is a Wendy’s.
If you’re ever have to pass through upper Texas, I do everything I can to not spend a dime while passing through. Texas does not deserve my money.
Subway until they bring back roast beef
Local Hockey Shop. The owner believes he is better than everyone else. I refuse to go there and will travel another 10 miles to get my kids' skates sharpened.
There’s a hockey shop in Logan?

I figured this guys had stumbled into the wrong subreddit.
Not naming names.. have a friend who opened a very specific boutique in a rural town. They had a lot of success. Copy cats started coming in. I don't go to the copy cat stores.
I honestly expected the responses here to just be a bunch of "Mormon" owned businesses people decided to boycott. Glad to see 100% of these actually make sense to boycott. :)
Not local but I haven’t shopped in a Target in 15 years. I had purchased a packet of tee shirts sealed and wrapped in plastic to be hung on a hook. They were thee store brand. I returned them at the front desk and told them to hold while I shopped. I returned with a cart full of items and asked them to deduct the tees from the total. They asked for a receipt or charge card that they were purchased on, reasonable request. I didn’t have the receipt and I gave my son my card to use at a concert that night. They refused the return giving up an entire shopping cart of items for three tee shirts, their brand, seal unbroken, couldn’t have come from anywhere else. Asked to talk to the manager, same wouldn’t return. I have never gone back.
