Re: Scotweb may wish to seek discount from FedEx
Yet another reason to buy "in country" whenever possible and if not currently possible, encourage in country manufactures to start producing the goods. E.g., I'm sure Pendleton Mills is perfectly capable of making any woolen cloth anyone else does/can. [Several years ago I bought a good amount of Frasier Hunting Weathered from them at a great price]. We already know of some really talented people right here that produce sporrans, bonnets, kilt jackets (even if by "conversion"), etc. I'm pretty sure flasks too. Please don't misunderstand, I'm not "anti-international trade" but the only way things are going to change as far as these kinds of problems are concerned is if "the market speaks" -- which seems to be the only thing people listen to anymore.
