The Tip is 'Don't procrastinate' For years I've been buying ink jet cartridges from a big box office supply store. These cartridges were made overseas and labeled with the well-known brand of a large American printer company. One I remembered a local store that advertised quality cartridges. I had traveled by this local store hundreds of times but never stopped. This time I stopped at the local store. To my surprise I discovered that they carried the cartridge I needed and it was a Made in USA cartridge. Made in Chicago, to be precise, and it was half the price of the imported ones I had been buying for years. The quality is exceptional and they last longer too. Who knew? After that experience, I make a point to stop at every store I can. By doing so, I've been finding more and more Made in America products. Occasionally the clerks don't know the country of origin; this can be discouraging but finding the origin information yourself isn't difficult I've come to realize. Believe it not, there are actually a number of computers made in the US including laptops made in the USA. When the label is not visibly displayed I use the other Made in America buying tips to help me find Made in US. 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. If enough people are asking for Made in America products stores will begin to carry them.

Americana refers to artifacts of culture of the United States. Examples of this culture include Baseball, Apple Pie, Jazz, Superman, The Diner and American folk art. In music, it may refer to roots-based bluegrass to alternative country, blues, rap, hip hop and other native forms. Some traditional bluegrass instrumentation originated from other countries, but as American culture flourished, we adopted it as our own. Some examples consist of the banjo which originated on the African continent, guitars from Europe, and fiddling styles which have their roots in traditional Irish and other Gaelic fiddling techniques. Some other forms of American culture include: Carnivals, popular amusements such as side-shows, vernacular typography and signage, old horror movies in the haunted house genre, the old west and the backwoods cultures. |
