The Tip is 'Where They're Proud' I recently saw an ad in our local newspaper for a big box home improvement store. Their newspaper ad had USA made products and American flags all over it. Several weeks later, I checked the ad again and sure enough they were still advertising their American made products. It was obvious they are proud to carry products Made in America. Their competitors made no mention of things Made in America. I have been to this store and asked what products are made in the USA? A clerk told me they primarily carry imports. Obviously they are not proud. I now realize you can buy many Made in the USA building supplies, including tools Made in USA and appliances Made in USA., in stores that are proud to carry brands Made in the USA. Here is another example of a store proudly carrying products Made in the USA. I was shopping for men's shoes in a local department store when I tried on three different pairs of shoes. I couldn't decide which pair I wanted so I went out on a limb and asked the clerk, "Are these shoes imports?" The salesman said "yes they are" so I asked, "Do you have any Made in America shoes like these?". To my surprise he said, with GREAT PRIDE, "yes sir, we have a whole line of Made In USA shoes". He brought me 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. Looking for companies that are PROUD is simple and can have a great impact on our country. I encourage you to try this some time- just ask. You will love it when you realize you are making a difference that all of us will benefit from. 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 Vintage Crush OK, OK? I'll admit it! We have a crush on wine! We love everything about it from grape to glass! The walk in the vines. The grapes. The crush. The swish. The smell. The flavor. The barrel. The bottle. The cork. The label. The romance of it all! We love that wine is alive. It brings joy when shared with friends and soul to a conversation. My Vintage Crush is a family business. Our wine related products are unique, functional and eco-friendly. Retired wine barrels and used corks that would normally get thrown away are repurposed and turned into wine art that has history, just as each bottle of wine has its own history. It's good for the earth and good for the soul. So along with my husband who is my web designer, a very talented Guitarist, techno geek and my best friend, and my daughter who is my budding wine connoisseur, we created My Vintage Crush. Thank you so much for stopping by and sharing our crush on wine! Be Blessed! Maryann Houde American Products by American Craftsman & Women |
