2022 Ethical Black Friday & Holiday Sales

View from above of someone cutting a slice of pumpkin pie on a wooden table with orange leaves for decoration.

It’s time for my list of holiday sales from ethical and sustainable brands. I like to use this time of year to stock up on products I use often, or to buy something I’ve had my eye on for a while. Of course, don’t buy stuff just to buy stuff. Mindful shopping is especially important in the face of holiday consumerism.

As usual, I’ll keep updating this list as I learn about more promotions. I’m sure there will be a flurry of activity as Thanksgiving approaches. Some brands are starting sales earlier in the week. So check back for updates.
