It still pays to buy American...one just has to work a little harder at it.

I just placed an order with TERVIS (made in America) for Christmas. They are headquartered in Florida. There is a store up in Spanish Springs (SS). My kids love them. My friends also like them. So if you are looking for something MADE IN AMERICA check out TERVIS on line or up in SS!

I have Bates of Maine bedspreads/coverlets on all the beds during summer. They are loomed in Maine. I also buy comforters from Rose Tree in Texas. They make comfortors and bedding in the USA. Yay!!

Made in America
 
I had to spend a fortune for a made in America Bedroom Set. Harden. Our bank account Bleed out Red White and Blue.

I need more items. Have you tried to buy furniture in TV made in America- Not a option.

Southern Lifestyles would just close down if we bought non China or Vietnam made. I don't think most people know where it comes from.

Anyone have contacts down in Fla local to TV?

How about Lazyboy for sofas and easy chairs? I think they are still made in the USA..and they are comfortable.

All of the furniture in our ATL home was made in America. In North Carolina to be exact. There are many factory outlet stores in Highpoint and neighboring towns where you can buy high quality furniture for way below retail. They all deliver.

We bought our TV home turnkey. But when we become frogs and trade up, we'll probably head to NC for any furniture we don't take with us.
