Chinese Refrain
Yesterday, 01 August, was Lammas Day! I've decided to refrain from purchasing any Made in PRC goods for the next month. I'm curious how difficult it is going to be to: (1) Discover where each particular product is manufactured; (2) The cost difference of alternatives; and (3) How many goods I typically purchase are from the PRC. I'm not a big consumer because I prefer non-packaged foods and usually small volume specialty items over assembly line products, but, nevertheless, it should be interesting. I know Merrylander and others have done this and would be curious as to the difficulty of the undertaking.
