Default We Don't Sell Them...

Karen and I went to Wally World today....needed a new disposable coffee maker

Thought I would also get a new American Flag for the front porch...customer service said "we don't sell them"...

shame on me for buying the Mr. Coffee gizmo(probably made somewhere we wouldn't live)

embarrassed..wilma

I had a hard time finding an American made coffee pot. Bunn is about the last one. Even the one I did buy had the pot made in China. I sent it back to them with a letter explaining they advertised it as being American made. There response was "the machine is made here, but not the pot". They refunded all my money. I drug my 25 year old GE back out. It leaks a little, but still works fine.

Bodum - Mostly Europe, but check individual model
Braun - Czech Republic and Germany
Bunn-O-Matic - U.S. and Canada
Chemex - Germany and Taiwan
Eva Coffee Brewer - Denmark
Krups (Moka model) - France, discontinued by still widely available
Melitta 10-cup manual - made in Canada

walmart does indeed sell American flags,. In fact mine has a little section dedicated to them. Little flag lights, small flag on sticks, larger flags, and jumbo flags with 5' poles. Most of the flags are US made too

The flag dept is right next to gardening in ours,
as far as coffee pots, right on down to cabellas for a campfire percolator, or as we call it, Mr. Eastwood.
