The Tip is 'Keep eyes open' After reading an article about items made in America I thought about how many times I make purchases without thinking. I'm usually focused on budget and needs. Prior to reading this article on made in the USA products, I rarely thought about the importance of buying made in USA products. This helps create jobs in our country. Now I keep my eyes open and I am surprised how easy it is to find American products. It only takes a few seconds to look. Now I make a point when I am shopping to search for made in America brands. By doing so, I'm able to identify more and more what products are made in America. Even with my eyes open to made in USA I can get discouraged. Sometimes store clerks don't know the country of origin which can be frustrating. If this happens use your eyes to find the origin information yourself. Look at the labels and when you find a Made in USA product tell the clerk so the next time they are asked they will know. Also, when the label is not easily seen I use the other made in America buying tips to help me find made in USA. If the store doesn't carry what you are looking for, use Made in America Secrets to find it and tell the manager about your experience at their store. When enough people are asking for made in the USA products, more stores will begin to carry products that are made here. This technique does work. I also pick and choose the stores I visit. I do this because I have found that some stores are made in America friendly while others are not. Keep your eyes open for the made in USA label and pretty soon you will be able to identify which products are made in the USA. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Opus Americana In late 2009, Michael Niemis, the author of Opus Americana, was inspired to give testament to the historical events, founding fathers and founding principles of the United States of America. This inspiration led to the creation of Opus Americana - a new book honoring the Founding Fathers, our founding documents and national symbols that have helped make America the greatest nation on Earth. Armed with skills as a professional graphic designer, experience as a former U.S. Marine, and a passion for detail, Michael developed the collection from the front cover to the back. He wanted the material to represent everything that makes America remarkable, while imparting the dignity and respect that these men and documents deserve. He spent an entire year and his life savings to create a masterpiece collection to pay tribute to the establishment of this great country. From the printing to the binding, Opus Americana was made in America. Every book sold gives an American a job, Michael stated in a recent television interview. It is important that, when you have a book about America, it be made in America. His goal is to inspire Americans and future generations to remember what makes America the greatest and freest nation on Earth. Opus is designed to be passed on from generation to generation, to remind them of sacrifices made, so that we may never forget. It is an heirloom of unparalleled quality and workmanship in the literary industry. On March 12, 2010, Opus Americana debuted to the American public on national television, showcased on Fox and Friends. As stated in the interview, Michael desires to help the U.S. Constitution and other founding documents to be cherished and preserved for future generations. Citing such inspirations as Thomas Jefferson, George Washington and John Adams, Michael poured his heart and soul into this endeavor. This book illustrates the history that paved the way for the first free and representative form of government the world has ever known. Featuring specific yet easy to understand details, Opus Americana is designed for anyone who is proud of what our country represents. It is a timeless tribute for those who have served and dedicated themselves to the cause of freedom. Opus Americana is a memorable gift for all Americans, including current serviceman, veterans, teachers, parents, grandparents, children and grandchildren. Offered in two different editions - Standard or Magnus - and two options for leather color, the collection may be personalized with an engraved plate inside the front cover for an additional cost. My hope in creating this collection was to bind the most divine documents the world has ever known, along with a tribute to the men who created them, the sacrifices made to establish our founding principles, and the historical symbols that have come to represent our great nation, into a beautiful book. A book that every American could afford to display in their home or office, give to a friend or family member, and to let it serve as a constant reminder to anyone who reads it, what it took to make America free. ?
