Ford

Abercrombie and Fitch-true, I am a little bit older than their target demographic but I still hate the clothes, attitude, and the fact that they try and sell thongs to 8 year old girls-that is just sick and wrong

Midas (or any chain mechanic shop)-they raped me to the tune of $480 over a repair that my local mechanic would have done for $200

Heinz-why make John Kerrey's wife rich when Kroeger brand tastes the same

John Morrell meat products-absolutely disgusting

Siebenthaler's Nursery-they support the local Planned Parenthood organization here in Dayton

Circuit City... Lost/misdirected my computer twice for a total of more than 2 months, changed policies midstream to make it much more difficult to get repairs done, and only fixed it well enough to hold for a week this last time (no doubt because that's when the warranty expired). Worst customer service I've ever encountered.

I recently added Arby's to my skip list. They started airing advertisements bashing Wendy's (my hometown favorite and the BEST all around fast food restaurant chain on Earth)

I mean really Arby's. Get a clue about where to not run negative ads.


Stupid fucking hat...

Firestone (auto repair, never had their tires)
Midas


On the other side, Companies that have done me right.

Porter Cable
I have had them fix and or replace tools even when out of warranty and they didn't have too, because it was thier fault. I even had them hand me a new charger for a cordless drill after I told them my wife dropped it (that one was in warranty though).

Roby Chevrolet
They went after the firestone shop that I had brake work done at becasue it was shoddy and I accused (wrongly) them of selling me a lemon. They fixed the messed up breaks and charged Firestone and not me. :)

TSC
They have always done me right on returns and whatnot and never hassled me, I love to shop there (does that make me a redneck?).

Won't step foot in Wal$Mart for a hundred reasons

SC Johnson Products (largest financial supporter of neo-prohibition organizations in America)

McDonald's, Wendy's etc. (I have no need for diabetes)

Cameron Mitchell Restaurants when I lived in Columbus (Don't like to reward utter mediocrity)
