Interesting: Would You Pay More for Washington-Made Products?

Anyone who knows me, knows that I'm tight with my money.

I am not cheap, however, I prefer the word FRUGAL when describing my spending. I enjoy getting a good deal. I LOVE using coupons. Have you ever seen an episode of Extreme Couponing?

It's a tv show all about people using coupons at grocery stores. These people are dilligent to the craft of saving money. Sometimes, the store owes the customer money!

But the question is: Would you pay more for products made in your home state?

According to a Reshoring Institute survey, 70% of respondents preferred American-made products. And, 83% would pay up to 20% more for domestic products. I'll be honest. I don't look at labels. I look at prices. I like paying the least amount for EVERYTHING. Hosting Advice specifically looked into how much of a premium people would pay for products produced and sold online by businesses in their home states.
