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 Hurrycane What's the difference between the canes of today and those from 2000 years ago? Not much. So we asked ourselves, In today's age of technology and science, can't we come up with a better cane? And that's exactly what we set out to do. We studied the physics of physiology and the science of stability. We looked at prosthetic limbs, robotics and emerging materials. We talked to family, friends and experts about the challenges of limited mobility. Then inspiration struck. Why not design our cane after the most advanced machine on earth? The human body. It provides perfect balance and stability. It reacts to changing conditions. And each part of the body is designed to move in perfect unison with every other part. So we stopped trying to build a cane. And started to build an extension of the body. Hundreds of designs later, we had the HurryCane?. It pivots without you having to think about it. It tackles sand, gravel and snow better than traditional canes. And it stands upright, when you need to use your hands for something other than, well, holding a cane. And now, we've made a great design even better. Our all-new, redesigned Freedom Edition? is 20% lighter, 40% stronger and 100% American-made. It folds up more compactly, and adjusts to be even taller and shorter than ever before. With a wider base for better stability and Comfort-Fit handle, the new HurryCane? has been redesigned from top to bottom. If maintaining your mobility and independence are important to you, we invite you to try the HurryCane? Freedom Edition?. We think you'll agree: This all-terrain cane truly stands alone. |
