"We are working on a War Tax Neutralization calculator so that you can keep track of how much

Until that day, just keep shopping for peace."
Peace Store, Feb 2003

The 'Peace Store' has established affiliate relationships with online merchants such as Wal-Mart, Target, Amazon, Best Buy, FTD Florist, Sharper Image, Home Shopping Network, MacWarehouse, OfficeMax, Payless Shoes, PetsMart, and 150 other vendors,
with products in 166 categories, with more companies and products being added daily. Affiliate commissions from the vendors range from 1%-50%, allowing Peace Store shoppers to automatically help fund the 'Peace Congress' project using money that you are
already spending. It costs you nothing but these stores will donate when you spend with them.
Includes 27 gift stores for Valentines Day, the day Blix delivers his Iraq report!
