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. 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. |
