The Tip is 'Watch What You Eat' While in the grocery store recently I noticed that the apples were from South America. Next to South American apples were a bin of apples labeled Made in USA. I decided to go with the Made in America apples since they were US grown. Always remember the Big Secret- buying more American made products helps put Americans back to work. It will guide you to food you will want to eat that is grown with US labor. If you just take a moment to look and think before you buy, it is likely you will find what you are looking for. Also, be careful because sometimes labels are not what they seem. Some companies use the letters USA to fool you into thinking they are American products. Trust only those products that literally claim their country of origin. Look for labeling like: Product of USA, Made in USA, Grown in USA, or other definitive markings. And last, when you begin the journey of purposely identifying American products keep in mind that it may take a little time but the more you look the easier it becomes. You will start to remember which brands are made in the USA and which aren't. This knowledge makes it easy and will accumulate over time. Some food items are not grown in the USA and you will learn that too. The Big Secret tells us we don't need to purchase everything from USA manufacturers just a little more than we are accustom to. If you can average $200 a month more on domestic purchases than you otherwise would it adds up fast. $2,400 a year is equivalent to 7 MILLION new American jobs. We believe that is a good thing. Buying Tip Continued - Read more on Made in America Products by Scratch Pad A great deal of care went into creating the flawless finish of your instrument. To protect that investment, Scratch Pad has selected the highest quality 'American Made' materials which are assembled exclusively In the USA. Scratch Pad is currently available in the four colors shown below. However, due to the limitations of many computer monitors, the colors shown will not demonstrate how plush and vibrant the colors truly are. I love the feel of the pad. I also cut a second pad in two pieces, I use one half as an arm rest on the front of the guitar and the other half as a color coordinated pick guard. John C /Chicago, IL We have not forgotten about the aesthetic value of dressing up your instrument. The surface of the Scratch Pad is a soft and attractive velveteen. The dimensions (size & shape) of Scratch Pad have been designed to accommodate the most vulnerable wear areas of ALL electric and acoustic guitars. At almost a foot in length, the unique design of Scratch Pad will even protect the distinctive shape of the 'Flying V' as well as Pauls, Strats, acoustics, etc. [See the diagram at the bottom of this page for Scratch Pad's dimensions.] The materials used in Scratch Pad manufacturing are color-fast so, like the American Flag, Scratch Pad colors will never run nor fade. |
