2. Thanks for the links. Always glad to have more options.
Oh, and I just ordered a Made in USA belt for my husband. What a nice feeling that was!

Enjoy your new socks and peace.

7. I avoid madeinusa.org

It called for the hanging of Nancy Pelosi a couple of years ago. I contacted some companies
featured on the site and they promptly asked to be removed from it Stillmadenusa.com is
a great site.

8. Thank you
I asked for these sights to be posted again - thank you so much. I bookmarked a couple of them but my computer is acting crazy - I do intend to buy some of these for Christmas items on the sites for Christmas gifts especially the one with the cheese. I might only buy some locally items that I know makes things here or give a gift card from those places.

18. Just remember that NO TRANSNATIONAL GLOBAL CORPORATION
is "American"!

Buy local, buy used or don't buy at all...
