Boycotting for one week doesn't bother them. They know you will have to buy it eventually. If you don't get today, you will get it tomorrow. They know you have to have it. That is why I suggested picking one company and boycotting them. We have to buy fuel, it is inevitable. If for nothing else we have to get to work. If all of a sudden a companies profits are cut in half, they will do something. I really think it would work. Just don't buy fuel from one company. We would have to find all brand names from a particular company and make sure not to buy from them. It may take a while, but they will get the message. The key is to send them an email to state why you are doing it.
