I like Target toys a lot-they have a much more natural look & feel, with less mass produced plastic toys. Reducing consumerism is something my family is working on as well. We've eliminated certain stores because they are so full of materialistic, low quality, mass produced & advertised...junk. Most of it we just don't need to begin with. Have a great day!

And though I don't ever think I'll be a radical environmentalist, I do think we need to be good stewards of the earth. Politically, we'll never agree. :) @ak - Thanks for the link. It looks interesting, and I will check it out in detail when I have a free minute. @Ryan - I don't think I've ever seen my brother wear a pair of jeans. Always khakis. @baglady - good point. Maybe if I were a hippie, I would be well on my way to riches, too. :) @Dawn - I find that amusing too. That actually might have been the influence of my youngest brother though. I think they went shopping together. He’s definitely influenced me to watch the consumerism.
