I’m excited that new postconsumer definitions are coming in to join all those rotating on the homepage in response to our “New Year kick-off” full refund service. This is the best way we know to show you how much your thoughts mean to us! Here are some of the new gems so far:

“Being a postconsumer means being aware of the system working to separate us from our money and keep us in a perpetual state of debt and dissatisfaction. It means making sober decisions and finding happiness on our own terms, instead of the terms of advertisers.” -Meghan Von Holstein-Rathlou

“I am a postconsumer because I would choose nearly the same lifestyle and the same activities if I had more money available.” -Alexa Mater

“One word: freedom! The more I own, the more I’m responsible for. Having less things and living a simple life is so freeing. I’m so tired of being weighed down by my stuff!” -Jennifer Burger

“Becoming a postconsumer means to me that I am going to attempt to be less wasteful in all aspects of my life. Just buying less is only the beginning, the challenge is to ‘spend’ my time more wisely. That will be the real savings to me and my family.” -Karen Aubry
