Activists Prepare for Buy Nothing Day
-------------------------------------



And activists are planning to mark Buy Nothing Day on Friday. Here in
New York, Reverend Billy and the Church of Stop Shopping is organizing a
Dance Your Debt Away Party in Union Square. The magazine Adbusters is
promoting an event called “Credit Card Cut-Up.” Volunteers are planning
to head to shopping malls with a pair of scissors and a sign offering to
cut up people’s credit cards.
