My solution is to buy as much stuff as possible from amazon. They know just about everything I buy, but they have mostly the same incentives as me, ie my information doesn't leak out of amazon. They may let people market through them, but they're sure gonna make sure nothing leaks out...

Isn't that effectively "putting all your eggs in one basket"? If Amazon changes business models at some point in the future, or is breached somehow, they'd have a goldmine of information about you. If you split up your shopping at least each individual shop has less incentive to reveal your information to competitions shops.
