PAY
ATTENTION
FOLKS."...IT
IS YOUR
BUSINESS!!!!!!
Costco
sells Goodyear
wiper blades
for almost
half the price
that
you
will pay on
the outside
and they are
made in the
U.S.A.
Read
and do the
following.
Unfortunately
our
politicians
and top CEO's
have pushed
for trade
to
china and
Mexico for
years so
Americans are
now out of
work. Did you
know
that there is
no electric
coffee maker
made in the US
and that the
only
kitchen
appliances
made in the US
is Viking?
This
information
came from a
report made by
Diane Sawyer.
Hopefully
this has
changed or
will soon!!
I
DIDN'T KNOW
HALLMARK CARDS
WERE MADE IN
CHINA ! That
is also
why
I don't buy
cards at
Hallmark
anymore, They
are made in
China and are
more
expensive! I
buy them at
Dollar Tree -
50 cents each
and made in
good
ole USA..(I
looked at a
Hallmark card
and it said
made in USA so
this one
apparently is
not true....)
I
have been
looking at the
blenders
available on
the Internet.
Kitchen
Aid is MADE IN
the US. Top of
my list
already ...
Yesterday
I was in Wal
Mart looking
for a
wastebasket. I
found
some
made in China
for $6.99. I
didn't want to
pay that much
so I asked
the
lady if they
had any
others. She
took me to
another
department and
they
had some at
$2.50 made in
USA. They are
just as good.
Same as a
kitchen
rug I needed.
I had to look,
but I found
some made in
the USA -
what
a concept! -
and they were
$3.00 cheaper.
We
are being
brainwashed to
believe that
everything
that comes
from
China and
Mexico is
cheaper. Not
so.
One
Light Bulb at
a Time..
I
was in Lowe's
the other day
and just out
of curiosity,
I looked
at
the hose
attachments.
They were all
made in China
. The next day
I was
in
Ace Hardware
and just for
the heck of it
I checked the
hose
attachments
there. They
were made in
good ole USA .
Start
looking,
people .....In
our current
economic
situation,
every
little thing
we buy or do
affects
someone else -
most often,
their
job.
My
grandson likes
Hershey's
candy . I
noticed,
though, that
it is
now
marked "made
in Mexico ." I
don't buy it
anymore.
My
favorite
toothpaste
Colgate is
made in Mexico
...now I have
switched
to Crest.
You
have to read
the labels on
everything.
This
past weekend I
was at a
local grocery
store . . . I needed 60W
light bulbs
and
Bounce dryer
sheets
I
was in the
light bulb
aisle, and
right next to
the GE brand I
normally
buy -- was an
off-brand
labeled,
"Everyday
Value." I
picked up
both
types of bulbs
and compared
them: they
were the same
except for the
price
. . .the GE
bulbs cost
more than the
Everyday Value
brand, but the
thing
that surprised
me the most
was that GE
was made in
MEXICO and the
Everyday
Value brand
was made in -
you guessed it
- the USA at a
company
in
Cleveland,
Ohio.
It's
Way past time
to start
finding and
buying
products you
use
every
day that are
made right
here.
So,
on to the next
aisle: Bounce
Dryer
Sheets... yep,
you guessed
it,
Bounce cost
more money and
is made in
Canada . The
Everyday Value
brand
cost less, and
was MADE IN
THE USA! I did
laundry
yesterday and
the
dryer
sheets
performed just
like the
Bounce Free I
have been
using for
years,
at almost half
the price.
My
challenge to
you is to
start reading
the labels
when you shop
for
everyday
things and see
what you can
find that is
made in the
USA -
the
job you save
may be your
own or your
neighbor's!
If
you accept the
challenge,
pass this on
to others in
your
address
book so we can
all start
buying
American, one
light bulb at
a
time!
Stop
buying from
overseas
companies -
you're sending
the jobs
there.
(We should
have awakened
a decade
ago....)
Let's
get with the
program and
help our
fellow
Americans keep
their
jobs and
create more
jobs here in
the USA.
Support
the products
that are "
Made in the
USA "
