What's in a Barcode? Photos of Interest

Here's a way to find out if what you are buying is from 

the USA or another country?

 

Can you differentiate which one is made in Taiwan or  China ?

If the first 3 digits of the barcode are 

• 690, 691 or 692, the product is Made in China
• 471 it is Made in Taiwan . 

Some products do not show consumers the "MADE IN" wording, so you don't know from which country it is made. 

However, you may now refer to the barcode - remember if the first 3 digits are:

• 690-692 ... then it is MADE IN  CHINA
•  00 - 09 ...  USA  &  CANADA
•  30 - 37   FRANCE
•  40 - 44  GERMANY
•  471 ...  Taiwan
•  49 ... JAPAN
•  50 ...  UK

Yesterday it rained and blew....wow the winds were bad!!!

 

Today the sun is shining but it is still cold for S CA.....this weather is sure weird this year. Our mountains got over a foot of snow and all the skiers are in heaven..

 

All the schools are closed today up there because of the snow fall they got over the weekend. Guess t was a good idea that Hubby and I decided to stay home. We almost made a trip up there for the weekend. Whoa....
