Bad Intentions....

I caved...well sort of. I needed a new pair of jeans and some pants for work. I tried the local goodwill, but to no avail. I tried to justify buying from Ross. I mean come on, they buy clothes that didn't sell to the first buyer, that's practically used...right? I found a great pair of pants, they fit perfectly, and quite flattering I might add. Then the guilt set in. The next morning I checked the tag to see how bad my purchase was, China probably, but guess what? Made in the U.S.A.!!!!!

And....the shirt that I bought at Buffalo Exchange (local second hand store), that I thought was way too expensive @ $17.50 also made in the U.S.A. and after searching online found that it was a $108 shirt (crazy)
Bad Intentions....Good Results :)

But...my dog's new collar was researched thoroughly, made in Peoria, IL, out of hemp...
