Great place for unique gifts from many small businesses that create and sell their products here in the good old USA. We're locals and love supporting local businesses! 90percent of sales go to tourists so we're a minority. Purchased a set wind chimes for wife's mom for Mother's Day. These are professionally tuned, hand crafted chimes. The sound wonderful!! If you're thinking of a gift idea they're wonderful. Don't skimp on cheapness that just clink. Anyone can do that with a set of beer cans on a string.

This place has a wide variety of American made items. Quality is good and a lot of well-known names like the weather tech bump-step that I bought today. The owner is very knowledgeable about all the products and just an all-around friendly guy to talk with.

This store is AWESOME!!! It is almost impossible to find stores nowadays that only sell made in U.S.A products. We spent a little over $100 here and I don't regret spending one penny of my hard earned money. The items might be a little bit more pricey than other places, but it felt good supporting items made in USA by hard working Americans.

It is amazing to finally find a store who supports our country, military and proudly sells Made in USA items. There is a wonderful selection to choose from and they even make custom orders. It is nearly impossible to find a cap made in the USA for Operation Just Cause Panama but they were able to make it and ship to us. So very friendly and they go above and beyond. It was such a pleasant experience. Would highly recommend to visit and call for you custom orders!!

I purchased a jar of pickled asparagus at the "MADE IN THE USA GENERAL STORE" for$8.95 for a 16 ounce jar. The first thing I noticed was the size of the asparagus spears were about the thickness of a wire coat hanger, which didn't bother me much as long as the jar was full. It was when I opened them to eat some that I discovered a sneaky trick. The inside wall of the jar was lined with normal looking, coat-hanger thin asparagus spears while the interior of the jar was filled with the tough, wood-like stems that you would normally toss in the the trash when you're done prepping the asparagus for pickling. This was an intentional attempt to deceive the customer for an enormous profit. Selling them PICKLED TRASH!My review: Part 2:Brian,To your point, I was originally not going to post a negative review as I initially assumed you may not be aware of what your vendor was doing by cheating your customers out of the asparagus product, but then I noticed that the label said it was "made especially for Made In the USA in Branson, MO". I felt if that was true, then you would have to be aware of what's inside the jars. After all, wouldn't it be reasonable to assume that if you're willing to put your store's name on the label that you should know what's inside? That's when I came to the conclusion that you had to have known the situation, hence the reason I wrote this review. To me, your story just doesn't stack up. If I'm wrong, then please accept my apologies.

My wife and I went into the store and looked around. Just a bunch of novelty items. I expected to maybe see something to use for everyday life but only saw mostly political propaganda and joke merchandise. We exited the store and on the way to our vehicle heard a voice behind us asking if we wanted coupons so we could support America, which I have no problem with if it's something I need...not something unnecessary. If someone leaves your store it usually means you're not interested. I don't need a pushy owner trying to convince me to buy something just because his store is struggling. I'd like to thank the lady who came out of the knife shop and confronted the rude man and told him he was pestering customers again, which he denied. I didn't purchase anything from the knife and they just said thanks for coming. Someone needs to respect the decisions made by customers and not try to push them into a purchase.

We wanted to see what this store was after visiting the Case store next door. We walked in and there wasn't anybody around. We were leaving and a man followed us outside asking if we wanted any coupons and we replied no thank you. He said we really needed to buy American to bring back America..There wasn't anything we needed. We thought it was very rude.After we said no thank you, you would think that he would be understandable and leave us alone especially when we were outside the store. He doesn’t have any idea what we buy, except we didn’t buy anything from his store. It was like an accusation that we are the reason America is failing and making the assumption we buy Chinese goods. I definitely won’t turn around and go back inside a store after the “Rudeness” I hope others don’t feel pressured to buy in this store.

If I could give 0 stars I would. My husband and I were at the Case knives store next door shopping with our infant baby in his stroller. As we were there for a bit he began to get fussy and I switched him into my chest carrier so I could feed him. My husband bought his knives and my candles and we decided to give the baby time to eat we would check out this store as it's directly next door. We looked around but didn't find much that interested us. My husband did find military backpacks and said he thought were a fair price, but as he had just bought his hunting backpack online, he didn't need it. The baby had finished eating and we decided to leave as we were headed to the Tanger outlets next. The owner followed us out of the store (just as many others in the reviews said he did to them) and asked if he could help us find anything. My husband said no thank you and we continued walking towards our vehicle. The owner then proceeded to stare at us with a disgusting look on his face as we started loading the baby, his car seat, stroller, and diaper bag into the vehicle. It was very off putting and rude. My husband finally asked him if there was a problem to which he replied something about us being in his store with a stroller, implying we were stealing. This obviously made my husband very upset. He asked the owner if he had cameras and if he'd like to review them or if he's like to look at our stuff because he was being blatantly rude. The owner said that he didn't have time to watch the cameras and that he was trying to protect his business. My husband said I can't believe you don't have time to go check the cameras as we were in there for a few minutes before accusing us of something we didn't do and harassing us outside of the store. He began getting very angry and yelling back and forth with my husband. Another shopper even walked by and said that he was being ridiculous and losing business the way he was acting and told my husband so. Reading the reviews, it appears the owner likes to chase people out of the shop that don't happen to buy anything because they either must be stealing or he wants to intimidate them into a purchase. Reading his replies to other shoppers reviews it also appears he make a lot of excuses for his abhorrent behavior and even tells the reviewer they aren't being fair by giving him a poor review but continues behaving that way anyways. I work in customer service for a very large company, and I can say without hesitation this man stands to lose a lot of business with his behavior just by reading the reviews.

Visiting on 11-7-23, overheard yelling in the back of store. After spending a short period of time, we learned that the ‘boss’ was getting on to one of the employees. She was notably upset during check out. We were not very happy with the conduct that took place and overhearing the yelling and reprimanding.

We were short on time, but I was able to run in and grab the dishcloths that I saw on the TV advertisement in the hotel. Owner was very kind. He gave me his business card, so I could order more dishcloths if needed. We live several hours away. Prices are very fair.

We were at the arcade and decided to go look around in the made in USA store. We didn't have much time so just walked in, around the store and then left. The man behind the counter ran out after us and shouted, "Were you looking for something?". I said no, we were just looking since we had never been in before. He then seemed irritated and said "You only spent 30 seconds....WHATEVER!!". I thought they had a lot of different items in the store and when I needed to shop for a gift it would be a good spot. After the weird situation with the man in the store I won't shop there.
