Shop Made in the USA for the Holidays
Posted On: Dec 12, 2012
In the 1960s, nine out of every 10 products Americans bought for the holidays were made in America. Today easily more than half of what we buy is foreign-made.

As reported by Ben Forer, Production Associate for ABC News, economists across the board say that if every American spent $64 on something made in America, we could create 200,000 jobs right now.

That might sound like a lot to spend until we realize that the average American in 2011 spent $700 on Christmas or holiday gifts. It’s hard to find American products for everything on your list — video games, TVs, stereos and other electronics are virtually impossible to find. But remember it takes just $64 to create jobs for Christmas and everyone has something on their list that can be found made in the USA.

So where will you spend your money this year?

Below is a list of websites to help you do your holiday shopping this year! Take the challenge to bring business back home!
