I do try and buy from Europe if UK stuff is not at hand I
buy Calfornia raisins or wine I have bought shoes from USA.
I buy English masks or similar items. I do agree folks should support
home industries.

I tend to buy American when it's available. Not buying much these
days, trying to slow the waste stream, too.

All the Australian brands I used to buy not because I buy Brand names to show off, but they were so well made and lasted for years, almost too long sometimes. Overnight they all moved to Asia. The prices went higher and they weren't the same quality. One year I wanted to take back a gift to a Canadian friend and asked for a brand name saying I wanted Australian made.the shop assistants were amazed. They were young and didn't think any retail had ever been made in Australia.

Great post. I agree. And if there was only a way to convince big pharma not to sell us meds, including prescription meds, from there. There are so many of our companies who are based there or near there there.

Good Evening
I'm going to make a conscious effort to pay attention to what I buy. We always get excited if we buy something that says made in the U.S.A.

We do that here - my family, I mean - look for made in Canada, or if it is food, grown in Quebec.
