Shop-A-Thon Thursday
Welcome back to another week of Shop-A-Thon Thursday. I am always so excited to bring you the new manufacturers and retailers that make their products here in the US.
This week I added a link to the American Red Cross. If you can, please consider donating time, talent or treasure to help in the relief efforts for the Hurricane Sandy survivors. Remember basic math: If you can give $1, that's good. If 1,000 people thought that way, they would have another $1,000. That's 1,000 drops in the bucket = a bucket half full, instead of half empty. Also, don't forget time can be considered a small prayer for them before meal time or whenever you get a moment

Is it or Isn't It Made in the USA?
I was just online
doing some comparison shopping. Of course, I look for products that are made in the USA. Here's one that was worth sharing.
item details
Based on that description, is the product made in the USA or not? I actually had to do a zoom of the picture of the product in order to find out that it is indeed Made in the USA. On a different retailer's website, I tried the same search and participated in a live chat to get the answer. I was asked several questions about what I was going to use the bubble wrap for prior to being given the country of origin. Besides entertainment and packing, what else is bubble wrap used for? (Everyone loves popping bubble wrap.) I had to re-ask my question in order to get the answer. Needless to say, that purchase was lost.
Tell me about some of your online experiences in finding products made in the USA. I love tohear read your stories.
