I've tried generics for all of these and went right back to name brand.Jaimiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12130755466479959846noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170821241977306099.post-90934509547210133352011-01-04T17:09:13.407-07:002011-01-04T17:09:13.407-07:00Too funny! I did a post like this back in '08,...Too funny! I did a post like this back in '08, so I copied and pasted it here:<br /><br />Name Brand vs. Generic<br /><br />I was thinking today that I have quite a long list of brand name items that I now must have over the generic ones. I think this list really started to get long after I got married, because Blake introduced me to things that I now love and never want to give up. I know that I am probably spending a lot more money on these things than other people, but hey, to me it's worth it!<br /><br />1. Kraft Macaroni & Cheese<br />2. Tide detergent<br />3. Dove soap<br />4. All chips (SunChips, Doritos, Tostitos, etc) must be name brand<br />5. Charmin Toilet Paper<br />6. Cool Whip<br />7. Jif Peanut Butter<br />8. Claussen Dill pickles<br />9. Yoplait Yogurt<br />10. Name brand soda pop<br />11. Puffs with lotion<br />12. Heinz Ketchup<br /><br />Things that I don't care about buying generic:<br /><br />1. Great Value Fruit Smiles (the cheapest and pretty darn good fruit snack out there)<br />2. Medicine<br />3. Milk<br />4. Cheese (sorry Carliles - I can't afford Tillamook!)Mary Ann Carlilehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17730498637479659977noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170821241977306099.post-85683347510621297542011-01-03T22:01:53.215-07:002011-01-03T22:01:53.215-07:00I also agree on the Mac & Cheese, only name br...I also agree on the Mac & Cheese, only name brand. But I will only buy the Great Value baggies because the Ziploc leaves a weird taste on the food. I thought I was the only one who noticed this but my sister in law said the same thing one time when we were cleaning up Sunday dinner. I will totally buy Great Value in most things but I am a name brand snob in things like cream of chicken, detergent and Cascade. I liked this post friend it made me laugh because I am probably that lady in the grocery store lol<br />XOXO<br />AmandaMY KIDS, MY LIFE, OUR STORY!https://www.blogger.com/profile/15004200867494613786noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170821241977306099.post-44200003167796865762011-01-03T17:15:16.975-07:002011-01-03T17:15:16.975-07:00Danielle...agreed with the Ziploc!Danielle...agreed with the Ziploc!Kandishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02000034091656678818noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-170821241977306099.post-25551517310657044632011-01-03T16:37:02.923-07:002011-01-03T16:37:02.923-07:00agreed on the mac n cheese. weird.
um, let's...agreed on the mac n cheese. weird.<br /><br />um, let's see... basically milk products in general. cream cheese should be the philadelphia (is that what it's called?), sour cream should be the Daisy brand. i don't care about veggies. but cleaning products, i feel like they work better if they're the name brand. and plastic bags (Ziploc!) too.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12603542692769440814noreply@blogger.com
