There's a lot, and they don't even have to be big issues for me. And I never worry about it really hurting the business in a systematic way; I just avoid giving it or the person my personal support.
One of the silliest examples is that I haven't watched a Woody Allen movie since the Soon Yi Previn story broke. Does Woody Allen know or care? Absolutely not. Do I really think who he sleeps with is any of my business? Nope, but if he is going to have a relationship with the daughter of his long term partner, I'm think he's sleazy and disgusting, and I'm going to take peace of mind in knowing that nothing I do is going to make him any richer.
Local business with poor customer service get written off pretty easily.
I can't immediately think of any political or social boycotts I'm involved in that are really meaningful, but often times it's a question not of where I won't buy, but why I buy where I do.
