βthe joy of not being sold anythingβ is an expression of astonishment and relief. Astonishment, because it is rare to see nowadays a blank billboard; relief, because we see there is nothing to advertise.
So the original message means "I did not buy anything and now I am happy about it'.

The boxing day sales emails started last Friday for me.
#BuyNothingDay should be every day.
@dripsandcastle I have never heard of #TeamTofu or #TeamTVP but I like it and I love #BuyNothingDay /Week /Month. You may be my people. Thanks for the follow.

@georgetakei Not me, because I had zero such emails. Probably partly because of EU data protection and privacy protections #GDPR and following #BuyNothingDay. Content blocker uBlock may also have helped.

Boycott #BlackFriday and BUY NOTHING.
1) Avoid purchases for 24 hrs.
2) Phone in sick to work (or slow down if you have to show up).
3) Let it radicalize you. Join your local Buy Nothing group. Start shifting your rituals from consumer to communal.

If I had to go out and get orange juice and cold meds, does that count as violating #BuyNothingDay ?
It's the Buy Nothing Day!

Honestly, sometimes posts like these help me check my #privelege. #BuyNothingDay disregards those who rely on buying things at a discount.
