A 24 hour moratorium on consumer spending - participate by not participating

2007 Updates

Wrap-up
This year was a big success, garnering broad international media coverage of the event. BND stories appeared on CNN, the BBC, CBC, and the New York Times, as well as dozens of local newspapers and radio stations. Once again activists took to the streets and malls around the world. Send us your BND tales and pix for posting on our blog bnd_[at]_adbusters_[dot]_org.

MTV update
Thank you to the over 3000 people who sent email to MTV over Buy Nothing Day, protesting their decision to censor our burping pig tv-spot. The controversy got the attention of the media, and exposed the fundamental inconsistency between MTV’s marketing pose and the corporate reality.
