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 Paupers Candle Our candles are hand poured and hand crafted by, Krista and Mark Webber, in the state of Idaho, USA. We have been making candles since 2002. We have made an extra effort to purchase our raw materials, when possible, from companies that make them in the USA. Also, we are continuing to produce all our candles using 100% natural soy wax and produce a candle line that is 100% natural using essential oils. This is our From Nature Candle Collection. We use non-metal wicks and use a glass tumbler that you can clean out and use as a drinking glass for your home. Re-purposing at its best! We have arranged our candles into four candle lines: Pauper's Traditional Candle Line, Signature Candle Line, From Nature Candle Collection, and Herb N' Garden Line. Each candle line features a set of unique scents. Each scent in each candle line comes in a 7oz boxed candle and an air freshener. Each candle line has its own packaging to set it apart. We are very excited about our candle lines and know you will find a scent to fit you. We are currently living in Sandpoint, Idaho and seeing our 17 year old dream coming to a reality, being debt free, living a simple life on our own land, and living off-grid. Yes, our candles are made from free energy from the sun! When one is in control of their world and the world is not controlling you, then one is truly free. We decided long ago that since our chosen professions do not produce large or even medium incomes, we then want to live in what we think is a beautiful area. We lived in Pacific City, OR on the coast, in Mitchell, OR in the high plains dessert and now in Northern Idaho in the middle of trees with a beautiful lake at our cities edge. We are truly blessed! We are pleased that you have used and enjoyed our products and thank you for your continual support. Happy Burning and Many Scents to You, Mark and Krista Webber |
