Ask in the shop, or in the supermarket, whether ingredients contain any gm food, and stop buying them by letting the staff in the shop know.

Seems so obvious but so few of us actually ask!

And you might want to post what GM means for the rest of the world. IE you are trying to reach people with your message, but many people have no idea what your message means. Was it made by General Motors? Grand Master?
It means Genetically modified.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/GM_food
Genetically modified (GM) foods, more accurately called genetically engineered foods, are foods that have had their DNA altered through genetic engineering. Unlike conventional genetic modification that is carried out through conventional breeding and that have been consumed for thousands of years, GE foods were first put on the market in the early 1990s. The most common modified foods are derived from plants: soybean, corn, canola, and cotton seed oil.[1][2]
It's important that you educate people with your great ideas, not preach to the choir.

I'm a big label reader, and committed to organics and clean food. No GMO's is a no-brainer.

What have your experiences been of doing this? Were they good/bad? Why?

Our kids are better label readers than we are so we must have got the message through. (Schools can't take the credit because we homeschool).
