For Andréanne Dandeneau, the words “Black Friday” bring up a feeling of chaos.

It’s something she’s steering her customers away from this holiday season. She’s not offering door-crashing deals at her shop Anne Mulaire Boutique, where she sells her sustainable clothing brand of the same name. Instead, she’s encouraging her clients to care for their new garments by offering free lifetime repairs on clothes bought this Black Friday weekend.
