Correction: Paypal and Home Depot were both originally included in the list. Those companies were considered for boycott, but are not being boycotted at this time.
Activists tried to block Donald Trump with their votes -- and now they’re trying to do it with their dollars.In October, technology and media marketing specialist Shannon Coulter started the hashtag #GrabYourWallet, which encourages people to actively boycott businesses that carry Trump products. That hashtag underwent something of a revival this week, when users on Twitter began to circulate a continuously updating Google doc of businesses that do business with the Trump family, as well as their customer relations contacts.

#GrabYourWallet encourages consumers to boycott businesses who endorsed Trump or currently work with his properties. It also includes mainstream media publications, like People, who have been accused of trying to normalize Trump and his candidacy.
While Ivanka Trump has brushed aside the boycotting campaign, it is seeing real impact. According to FastCompany and data sourced from ShopRunner, Ivanka Trump’s brand has seen a 54 percent drop in “interest,” or item views on select online retailers.
#IvankaTrump is as phony as #DonaldTrump. She has bad childcare policy at her company & makes her products #overseas. #GrabYourWallet

#GrabYourWallet is based in a Google Doc, and there are plans to build a website and an app around the list, according to Coulter’s comments in the #GrabYourWallet Facebook page.
Here’s an partial list of companies on the Google doc:
Companies with leaders that have endorsed Trump
