It has been a busy few days so I have not been online much, but I have some more items that are made in the USA and one disappointment.
Disappointment first - I could not find any information about Wranglers Jeans - so I emailed the company. They are very bold about the fact that they have moved their manufacturing offshore - the last Wranglers made in the USA were in 2005.
However, Not Your Daughter's Jeans are made in the USA so I will see if I can find a pair that fits. They are a little pricey, but a friend says hers wear like iron.
MADE IN USA:
Elmers Glue
Dove products. And I have found that Dove "Go Fresh" body wash works just as well as the Olay (not made in USA) I was using. It keeps the ultra dry skin from itching. Good stuff. Has several different fragrances.
Target Up and Up Nail Polish Remover - made in USA
Lysol products
Woolite
Oxyclean
(I might have already mentioned the last two, but wanted to make sure)
I am finding that if the label says "Distributed by" - it is probably NOT made in the USA. Most companies that are making their products in the USA proudly post that on the labels.
That is all for today - and probably the next few days. It has been an interesting month, and while my pledge to buy nothing not made in the USA has been stymied a few times, I have been able to find replacement products for items I use - with the exception of clothing.
I will continue to try to purchase only USA made goods and I will continue to report on products that are or are not made in the USA as I shop. By the way if you find anything that I have not listed - and want to add to this blog - and cannot figure out how - just email me at ladydremr.c@gmail.com and I will add the info for you and give you "writer's credit"
Thank you and have a blessed day
