What products don't you go cheap on?

[I_luv_rusty]

List of my family and I: (Probably missing things)

-Toliet paper & paper towels
-Tissues (I hate the tissues they have at school they make a nose hurt 5x more )
-Hair products
-Popcorn & Peanut Butter (skippy)
-Probably dog food
-Clothing/some shoes (not riding boots or dress shoes or flip flops)

[Sevaede]

Pet food is something that I just won't skimp on (unless it comes down to poor food or no food). I think I will be trying to switch everyone over to Felidae and Canidae.

Fem care products.

Cokes.

car parts.

my husband prefers to wear *only* levi 501s (black).

t.p.

incense. the cheap stuff is diluted with alcohol and is not very awesome.

I'm sure I have more than this, but this is all that came to mind right away.
Salad Dressing. I like 1000 island, fat free. But it has to be Kraft. Bruce picked some up for me the other day and first of all, it wasn't fat free and it was the store brand. Bleh!!!
Also, I have to use Salon Shampoo & Conditioner. Like I said, there are probably a million other things, but I can't think of them at the moment.
(oh, yeah, chocolate!!! Cheap chocolate is nasty!! LOL)

[Chilli]

Pet food(includes Dogs, Cats, Ferrets, Birds, etc.) & Peanut Butter(must be Jif). =D

[Suki Wingy]

Rabbit food (Oslo only seems to do well on Heinold 15-20 Show Formula Rabbit Feed)
Dog Food. (Niño's on TWO right now)
Hair dye, only Manic Panic works the way I want on my hair, plus it doesn't make it feel worse and it's all natural so I can leave it in to set for hours. I's motto is "tested on celebrities, not animals!"
tampons
Riding gear. I've found out the hard way with at least 5 different major purchases. Most cheap stuff just falls apart, is horribly made, and needs to be replaced soon after buying it.
Other than those, that is about it.

[RedHedd]

Cat food/treats
Perfume
Makeup-base, blush, eyeliner. All other makeup stuff is drugstore.

Bar soaps - I'm addicted to LUSH handmade soaps
Printer ink
Bras and undies must be Victoria's Secret
Comet cleanser
Purses - only Coach; I have two and alternate
Mayonnaise must be Best Foods
Ketchup must be Heinz
Tea

Most everything else I will shop price, sales, use coupons, discounts, buy online

[Suki Wingy]

Bras and undies must be Victoria's Secret

Oh yeah, me too. The only bra that stays comfortable all day is the VS full coverage with strechy material in stead of foam cups. I have about 4 of those.

OK I'm sure we all have those products that we use that we never go cheap on. Like for me its toilet paper. LOL I can't stand the "cheap" brands of toilet paper haha it's like using sandpaper to me. I also don't go with the cheaper brands for feminine products.

But I will go with the cheaper paper towel. Or the cheaper dish soap.

LOL what products do you need to be "top of the line" lol

Beads !!! I hate cheap beads.....lol
Wombat

• Baby Formula
• Cat Food
• Feminine Products and Makeup

There is probably more, but those are the most important.

[Argranade]

Well I ALWAYS get brand name bird food, I'm always scared no name bird food will not give enough nutrience to my Fids, to me the more money I spend on my fids the happier they'll be ... altho I could be wrong lol.

I don't mind no name food ... but I rather have it branded.

As for toilet papper I honestly could never care about it LOL.

Shampoo/Conditioner-I have very bad dandruff(not trying to gross anyone out but it's very true) and I can't use normal shampoo or else the dandruff will show very painfully, so I must use expensive and specialty dandruff shampoos such as, pert and head & shoulders...

Purses-I can't buy cheap purses or I will NEVER use it. I'd say it would have to be at least $15 and up...

Popcorn-I can only buy certain popcorn because if I buy the pathmark brand or cheap brands I can tell the difference..and I absolutely despise it. I need ACT II popcorn or nothing will work.

Chips-I will eat the lays chips, but I much prefer the more expensive brand called "Cape cod". They are so good and crunchy, and I don't really like eating the lay's brand cause they break so easily and stuff. It's quite annoying.

Ketchup-Now that is a big one in my book! I cannot eat any other brand of ketchup. You can taste the difference, and the other ketchup brands to me at too watery and sugary....ick. Heinz is the best brand out there and it is even healthier too, I just can't stand other ketchups and you can just forget me using it if is not Heinz.

[Maya & Inka's mommy]

I usually don't go cheap on EVERYTHING ! But if I have to pick out something: all kinds of food (yes, catfood too )
