My trackies are made in Bangladesh!

[just_me_karen]

They might have been made in an unsafe factory, by underpaid sweatshop workers 😞

They are very ugly but very warm. They're the first pair of trackies I've owned since childhood. So, it's quite a dilemma.

Should I discard them and freeze?

Return them and protest?

Keep them and ignore my guilt?

Is there anything you refuse to buy due to a social conscience?

[crystal**flake]

Keep them.

What's their track record like ?

[just_me_karen]

Ok Crystal 😄 What things do you refuse to buy due to social conscience? 😄

deja, they have a shameful history. They've never left the house or been seen in public, and never will... God willing lol

I have tried to not buy Nestle products because of their history of causing deaths in developing countries, but because they make such a broad range of products, it is near impossible.

lowes ?

I didn't know that about Nestlé, Polka 😞 I are they associated with the baby formula issues in developing countries?

i tried giving up palm oil products, but it's hard because it's in so many yummy things.

martini, if I chuck them, I'll be freezing and have to turn the heater in, stoofing our global warming targets. 

I have stopped buying chicken because I can't stand the thought of their miserable lives.

Not much point in chucking them as most trackies are made in Asian factories, most with underpaid and not that well treated either.
