Last thing watched / read / listened to / seen: I just finished Stranger Things

How was it? I am not usually that into SciFi, but since it was eight episodes it kept me going

Major News Source: Unfortunately it is Facebook

Brands on the Street:

  • Definitely Apple
  • The clothes are just kind of random
  • I usually carry an LV (Louis Vuitton) wallet with me

But I am not too into name brands or carrying around branded things.

Impact on Society

Louis Vuitton- um, I mean, I don’t really have any idea but I don’t think they are associated with any negative activity when it comes to impact on society.

Apple- I may have read articles about factory conditions overseas, right? Other than that I think they are a very reliable brand. They make good things.

 

Does shared value drive any other of your purchasing decisions?

Yeah so, I have a friend that has a sunglasses brand called, A Better Outlook.

a better outlook

 

The actually donate a portion of their revenue to different causes. Also, when you buy a pair they give you a second pair so they are really a brand that encourages giving.

I own a pair. I don’t always wear sunglasses but I always have them with me.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Would you switch to a brand that was just as good but that offered more shared value?

Yes, definitely. Even cosmetics, during October they may have the pink ribbon branded merchandise. I am not sure I would actually buy that, but it has a special place. It makes you take notice and pay attention.

Aside from purchasing decisions, is there any way you personally try to do good in the world?

Unfortunately not.
