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 Bailey Boys It all started as a passion of Diane Bailey as far back as she can remember. As a little girl she spent hours and hours drawing and creating. As she grew older, into high school and even college, she would design and assemble clothes for herself. People were always asking me where I got these cool, new clothes, she said. Diane attended Georgia Southern University, where she earned a BS in home economics. After marrying her college sweetheart, she became a stay-at-home mom since she was blessed with two wonderful young boys. She found it very difficult to find clothes that would fit them, so she began making her own outfits for them and the John-John was invented. As her boys grew older, her husband persuaded her to begin mass producing her designs to sell, and thus The Bailey Boys, Inc. was born. In 1987, it began as a small five sewing machine operation designing only boy's outfits in a room the size of your average bedroom. Today, The Bailey Boys, inc. operates a 22,000-square foot facility in Baxley, GA with its corporate headquarters located on Saint Simons Island, GA. They are very proud to service over 700 customers throughout the United States. There is a Bailey Boys company store on Saint Simons Island.. Please visit the Store Locator link for directions. |
