Christmas Shopping for Made in Illinois Products

November 26th, 2008 at 12:00pm Bob Trojan

It’s the time for buying our friends and family Christmas or Thanksgiving presents.  Now here is an idea…why not buy stuff made in Illinois, USA?

Here is a new web site that is building a list of companies that make products suitable for gift giving or buying for ourselves through the year.

Let’s keep our hard earned money here in our state.   Mrs. Fisher’s Potato chips and Heartland products made here in Rockford are two that come to mind.

Can you think of any others??
