I don't shop in stores that have any Chinese merchandise that could be manufactured elsewhere, preferably in the US. I don't have anything made in China unless there's no other source, and then only purchase when absolutely necessary. There are made in the USA sources for a lot more things than there were just a few years ago. I throw away any Christmas cards printed in China or any non-Christian country.

I only shop in stores that do better than their competition about stocking made in the USA and locally sourced products.

For technology, if the choice is Made in China vs made in South Korea or Japan, I choose Japan or South Korea.

Do I have ANY Chinese merchandise? Very little, and I'm always trying to replace the small amount I have with something not Chinese.

I don't understand the mentality of people who buy made in China slave labor *rap when they don't have to.

Wow, which means (since I assume you do not shoplift) from friends/relatives/acquaintances...

I can sympathize with the feeling, at one time I viewed matters this shallowly, but it finally dawned on me that someone has to be looking at these cards as they are printed and packed. Maybe, because someone bought a Chinese Christmas card, a Chinese person saw a gospel message.

As I asked before, what stores do you shop in? I’m serious, I’d like to shop there too. Specific names please.
