Found this Week – Made in the USA – Week 22

Not a whole lot this week.

Minuteman Pens, but their store has been closed since I ran across it.

I was happy to find my new favorite website, http://www.backfence.com/

It has all of the small local business’ in a number of areas listed. Another great looking site is http://www.locallectual.com/ I’ve not had time to check them out very much, but they seem to have a wealth of information.

∞Enjoy.

Found this Week – Made in the USA – Week 20

This week I hit a couple stores buying some things for a couple projects I’m working on.

A lot of OfficeMax Paper products are Made in the USA. It seems Scotch Tape is Also.

Bill @ Bye, American ran across a few LawnMowers, the Jiffy Steamer, and John Ratzenberger’s (Cliff!!) Show.

I got to shoot my Henry Rifle on Saturday. It was awesome, Got a bulls-eye at 50 yards with NO SCOPE (Lucky Shot).  I was hitting the target most of the time, The trigger is great, Leaver Action perfect.  What a wonderful Firearm, I’m very proud to own it. Article coming Soon.

Found this Week – Made in the USA – Week 19

I missed some weeks somewhere… Oh well.  Sick this past weekend, the flu is not much fun, Should have worn a mask. I’ve decided to automate this process a little to provide a little more consistent results. The Found this week series should be publishing every Sunday.

Found some Hoses at Target.  Ran across the Armadillo Garden Hose online.

Bottled my beer Saturday. I do hope it turns out OK.

Found this Week – Made in the USA – Week 16

Found some Great things this week. I was gearing up for the year outside, I needed some supplies.

Hit a couple stores and this is what was found.

  • Suncast Hose Reel – View Suncast on Amazon – I bought a SHA150, sub $30, It’s fair quality but I hardly use the hose through out the year so it will hold up fine.  If you use your hose much, Pickup one of their heavier duty models. They are built much stronger and will run you between $50-100.
  • Flexon Hose -View Flexon on Amazon – Nice hose, My current hoses were just too weather damaged. Picked this up at Big Lots for a steal, $15 bucks for 50 ft. The connector is great, easy to attach to the spigot.
  • Anchor Hocking Co – Glassware – $5 bucks for a pitcher, another Big Lots score. I’m getting things together to brew beer. This may come in handy when I experiment with keging my beer.  Visit Anchor Hocking on Amazon

My Dad is in the market for some new summer work boots. While we were out we hit a local “Chain”, they have two stores. Chuck’s boots, has an awe inspiring selection of boots(seriously we were there for at least an hour and didn’t make it through Everything). Everything made in the USA is marked with a US flag.

Post a comment if you have used any of these Products. We would all love to hear your experience.

Found this Week – Made in the USA – Week 15

I was rather disappointed this week in a local chain of, what used to be, military surplus stores. Not sure what happened, but they have started selling a lot of imported stuff. Some of it looks to be good quality, some is not. They do still have some military stuff. But most of it has been replaced by the aforementioned stuff.

Oh well… still found a couple things.

Didn’t see much else.
