The Tip is 'Ask Before You Buy' I went to a department store for a pair of dress shoes recently. The clerk helped me with three different pairs that I tried on. 'The Big Secret' was on the forefront of my mind so I asked, "Are these shoes imports?" The salesman responded that they were in fact imported. "Do you have any Made In America shoes like these?" I asked. To my surprise he said, "We have a whole line of Made In USA shoes." I was able to purchase the same color and style with the Made In USA label. These Made in America shoes were less expensive, came with a better warranty and were more comfortable. It's amazing how often this simple Made in US question yields unexpected and often times pleasant results. I now ask this question regularly, whereas before I would not have thought to ask for a Made in America alternative. More often than not, I can find a Made in America product of higher quality and at the same, or slightly higher price. Asking the question is so simple and can make a positive impact, in both the short and long term. Try it sometime. If you are like me, you may be surprised with how many Made in US products are out there. You will love it when you realize you are making a difference that benefits many. With your help America will be ours again and that is a good thing. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Adam Matthews Adam Matthews was founded in 1983 at the age of 21 by me, Adam Matthew Burckle. Growing up in Louisville, KY on special occasions I would look forward to and enjoy the hard work of my Mother Nell when she would bake her famous New York style cheesecake. While attending culinary school, I missed the flavor and richness of her cakes, so I started baking them at school. The demand from culinary classmates was so large that it caused me to consider pursuing my talents in a bakery rather than a restaurant. In 1983 I opened Adam Matthews with one oven and a baker's helper. Soon sales took off and since then Adam Matthews has never looked back. Since 1983 Adam Matthews has baked over 10 million cheesecakes alone. Adam Matthews cheesecakes can be found throughout the United States. Adam Matthews cakes are sold in bakeries as well frozen food sections of grocery stores, specialty retailers and restaurants throughout the United States. |
