         The Great Made in America Christmas.

        The average American spends about $700 on Christmas gifts.  This video shows the economic effect if each spent $64 on American produced goods.  Imagine would we could do to help our economy, neighbors and friends.  How about it?

Very Good Video Greg,
    We are in, and I might add I have a common practice to always TRY and buy American made products, it does get hard but I do try!    :2vrolijk_21: Mike

Great job, Mike!  Will we see you next Saturday?  The Long Beach show is always great fun.

 Please don't forget about the elderly that have been forgotten about in nursing homes. Some don't have any family or a family that cares.
 We do free Santa pictures in all of our offices so ALL kids have a chance to get their picture with Santa. We are at another office today doing it and having a bus of seniors from the assisted living coming down to see the kids. Little do they know they (the seniors) are getting their picture with Santa also. It's all about the little things that matter to most people.
 Some of our offices are in small towns with high unemployment. It is amazing how modest some of the children's request to Santa is....Santa- what do want for Christmas...child- my Mom to do good at her new job and not get laid off or some want just a new book or shoes that fit. I'm taking pictures trying not to tear up. It humbles you being around poverty. To me Christmas has always been about helping the parents who's children would not have Christmas otherwise.
 I challenge some of you to adopt a family and/or an elderly person who might need help with their heating bill so they don't freeze. We do all of the above...that is what makes Christmas special to me. In our house it is not about a bunch of presents under the tree with OUR name on them...why we buy what we want when we want.
