I did a previous post about Buying American to boost the economy. I wanted to show y'all I practice what I preach. So I went shopping this weekend and purchased 13 American made items. And it didn’t take me too much longer to read the labels to determine the country of origin. I saved money buying the American made products since most were not name brands. The only product I paid more for was the Lysol Neutra (Air Freshener) but it doubles as a surface disinfectant. I also used it to dust my home today. I don’t know if it is safe on all surfaces though so you should read the label before using. So basically I got 3 products in one. I got the Butterball Ground Turkey for $2.29 per pound @ Costco which is low in fat and is great for making tacos, chili, spaghetti, and turkey burgers. The Kirkland (Costco) Cinnamon Rolls were like the best Cinnamon Rolls I ever had. They make them at Costco so that definitely counts as American made. I am pretty sure other brands of Cinnamon Rolls are made in America but I just really like the taste of Kirkland Cinnamon Rolls. The following is a list of my American made purchases this weekend:
Butter Ball Ground Turkey $2.29 per pound
Kirkland (Costco) Cinnamon Rolls $1.50 each ($8.99 6 pack)
