Buy Nothing Day and the New Service from Amazon

Today November 25 2016 is 'Buy Nothing Day'...it's an international day of protest against consumerism.

This year the day could be a huge success in India because of the recent demonetization of high value currency notes....but how do you counter, the 'new service' from Amazon?
