Subject: Great Idea--Let's All Try It!!
In our current economic situation, every thing we buy or do affects someone else and perhaps even their job. I don't know how many households there are in the U.S. but if these were the only things we bought think of the impact. After reading this email, I think this lady is on the right track. Let's get behind her!!
(She wrote:) This past weekend I was at Kroger. I needed 60W light bulbs and Bounce dryer sheets. I was in the light bulb aisle and right next to the GE brand was an off brand labeled "Everyday Value". I picked up both types of bulbs and compared the stats. They were the same except for the price. The GE bulbs were more money than the Everyday Value brand but the thing that surprised me the most was the fact that GE was made in Mexico and the "Everyday Value" brand was made in the USA by a company in Cleveland, Ohio.
So throw out the myth that you cannot find products you use every day that are made right here in the USA, for less than what is made outside the USA.
On to another aisle - Bounce Dryer Sheets....yep, you guessed it, Bounce cost more money and is made in Canada. The Everyday Value brand was less money and MADE IN THE USA! I did laundry yesterday and the dryer sheets performed just like the Bounce Free I have been using for years and at almost half the price!
So my challenge to you is to start reading the labels when you shop for everyday things and see what you can find that is made in the USA - the job you save may be your own or your neighbors!
If you accept the challenge, pass this on to others in your address book so we can all start buying American, one light bulb at a time!
Stop buying from China, Canada, Mexico, ect...
(We should have awakened decades ago)
