Please consider purposefully purchasing Made in the USA products this Black Friday, Cyber Monday and the entire holiday season.
There are many factors that you consider when buying a gift.
Will (name) like this gift?
Is it the right color?
Do they need this gift?
Will they like it?
Is it in my budget?
Can I carry it home?
Can I wrap this shape?
Can I mail it or is it too heavy?
Please just add “Is it Made in the USA?” to you list of considerations. Take a moment to look at the tag or turn the item over to see where it was made.
With unemployment at 8% (and we won’t discuss the real unemployment rate), companies facing bankruptcy, workers being laid off and let go, let’s all do our small part by BUYING AMERICAN.
You can find a list of American made products I like {here} and a database of Made in the USA products {here}.
Think of the impact we can all have by making purposeful purchases this year.
