Shop. Get deals. Give back. Why we love Pure Citizen.

Shop for goodness at Pure CitizenOh, honey. You know we love our flash deal sites. Gilt for designer duds? Check! Fab for home goods? Totally! Little Rue for kids? Please! Ideeli for splurges? You get the picture. And it goes on. But this one has a unique twist that makes our hearts feel as light as our wallets.

It's called Pure Citizen, and it's making the world a better place through shopping.

 

Pure Citizen works like similar deal sites--daily curated collections of goods that are available for a very limited time. But here's the twist: everything on the site is carefully vetted to be good for the planet, good for society, and probably good for your karma.

When you click on a product, you see the whether the product is organic, handmade, fairly produced, recycled, cruelty-free, vegan, purely produced, and/or eco-conscious-- and most of the products fall into several categories. You also see the discount you're getting. But on top of that, you'll find a handy widget that allows you to donate even more to a carefully chosen charity, currently the One Day's Wages Horn of Africa Relief Fund.

More than 20% of Pure Citizen's shoppers choose to give even a little bit back, so the plan is working.

Pure Citizen also gives 1% of all sales to a charity called 1% For the Planet, and they try to choose sellers who share their belief in donating sales to great causes themselves. Who knew shopping could feel even better? ~Delilah
