Made in the USA

Now that's a label you don't see much anymore. We as consumers are so price conscious (with good reason) that most of the goods we buy (especially toys, cars and clothes) are not American made. A ton of the stuff we consume is made abroad, shipped across oceans in giant containers, then distributed across the country by planes, trains, and trucks. I mention this because a reader (okay, my Mom) requested I do a post about where to get American made stuff. Awhile ago I blogged specifically about where to get USA-made toys, but that didn't touch upon other goods. So here are three Web sites that list a wide variety of items, all made right here in the good 'ol USA.
