Add me to the list of readers who were disappointed with this book. I'm certainly glad I "only" spent a PBS credit on it, as opposed to buying it elsewhere. There were several interesting snippets throughout but overall, the author could not restrain herself from going on and on with various "extreme left" diatribes that unfortunately distracted from the valid criticisms of American consumerism. I didn't realize that this author lives part-time in Vermont - actually a couple of towns over from mine - so I did enjoy reading her descriptions of consumer issues unique to Vermonters - those were pretty much spot on. Overall, though, I would NOT recommend spending your time (or money) on "Not Buying It".
