Diana Sawyer from ABC World News is doing a segment called, "Made In America". According to the stats, the average family spends $700 on holiday shopping. The economists state that if $64 of that average is spent on products made in the USA, that will create 200,000 new jobs. Check out the link below. It's very interesting!!
I am seriously going to reevaluate my shopping list and look at the labels and tags of the items I purchase to see where they are made.
Okay, I just went up to my room and checked out the labels of the items I purchased today. I was looking for an outfit to wear to my husband's company's holiday party. And of course, after eating so much over Thanksgiving weekend, I couldn't fit into anything that I already have. The four items I bought today were all made in China. Very disappointing!
From now on, I am going to try my best and buy some things that are made in the USA. At least the handbag I recently purchased from my friend, Tangee, is made in the USA. Actually, it's made in Chicago by her own hands!!!! She's an amazing designer! Check out her website:

So, I will let you know if I find anything made in America and will report back to you. Good luck searching yourself.
Enjoy your day!
