Our Blog about Buying American Made - 2013

This is our blog about buying American made products in the year 2013.  We've been inspired by ABC News reporter and anchor David Muir and his travels across America.  He has shown us there are A LOT of things we can buy that are American made.  Our goal this year is to buy as much made in America as possible, to strengthen our economy.  We are proud to be American and want to show everyone it can be done!  

If you would like to recommend any products for us to try, leave a comment with what the product is, where it can be purchased and a link if there is a website associated with it.  

Our first purchase will be some birthday gifts for family members celebrating birthdays in January.  I'm going to use the ABC News link http://abcnews.go.com/WN/MadeInAmerica/ as a starting point.

Looking forward to seeing if this challenge can be completed, and duplicated by many people across America!
