Thread: No more Products of China

Hey, what if a lot of people boxed up their Chinese products and delivered
them to their senators offices?? I think that would get their attention!

I went to several stores looking for Christmas lights not made in China and there were none. I looked online as well. ALL Christmas lights and most decorations are from China. How did this happen?!!! Well, I didn't buy any. I used what I currently have and when they don't work we just won't use lights anymore.

I went to the grocery store the other day and noticed the Dole fruit cups were from China! I couldn't believe it. I am taking the time now to read ALL labels.

this to me is a very important message!! everyone needs to read the lables and then decide if that product is worth your hard earned $$$$$$!

I have a major love of decorating for each season...Xmas being a huge one,
and every year added to ornaments, trees, etc..
NOT THIS YEAR AND NEVER AGAIN UNTIL I can find Made in America or hey,
even made in Japan would work for me....but NO more from china NO MORE. Im in the country and if I need to add things can get natural treasures
from my woods. I WILL NOT by silk trees, flowers, baubles and bangles
and anything else from CHINA! I am over the edge now and on a roll.
And I already read every label on every item of food I buy. And distributed in is a red flag and you can call the company and insist on
being given the source of their ingredients. It does take a bit of time but
you can target just one company a day.....hey, that at least 28 (business
days a month)..just one and it will make a difference. Nothing rattles
a company more than having negative feed back and loss of business
for using contaminated or possibly contaminated ingredients in food they
are peddling to us.
Im even considering startin a line of Made in AMERICA of cat
toys and beds made for guaranteed USA sourced/produced materials!
Wars begin with battles....Im in for the long haul on this one!
I am beyond livid......can you tell?

I was looking at OshGosh for kids but noticed they no longer say "Made in America" broke my heart.I emailed them and asked who makes their clothes now.They replied Mexico & China.I wrote back for them to let me know when they start making clothes in the good ole USA but until then I will not be buying anything from them.

If you are looking for Christmas stuff made in USA check out thrift shops.I recently bought some beautiful old hand blown ornaments made in New Hampshire.

Wow, you guys are really serious about this. Anybody wants to start a Buy only American, club?

Yeah, my daughter has become a Goodwill store repeat customer. She
says that way she knows none of her money goes to China. When we
go in any kind of store and look around we go straight for the labels.
We are SO thrilled when we find something made in the USA. I bought
a shelving unit the other day that I didnt even need....because it was
made here!!!!! WE get get so excited to see a red, white and blue label.

i also have actually bought a few small items i really didn't need but they were Made in the USA!

[quote="justme"]It took a little effort and some overtime with the bifocals but my pantry is now cleansed of all “product of Chinaâ€

i also hate when they put the American flag on the product even though it was manufactured in china but packaged or was distributed or what ever here. i think that is very deceptive marketing.
