It depends on the product but for a lot of stuff there's no need to pay the extra for a brand name. Other stuff there is and you really do pay for what you get.

Yeah I do all the time I have a wife and two kids I owe it to them to make the most of my money...

I Like Chocolate · 12-26-2004, 05:41 PM

i buy stuff from costco.

Yes, I do. I went to Walmart the other day and probably saved $50 buying a lot of generic products.

What a lot of people don't realize is, the name brand companies make the products for stores and put the stores label on it and/or sell their forumla to the store. So all you are paying for sometimes is a label.

Granted, sometimes the generic products are a little more "watered down" but in general, they are just as good.

I also buy the Malto-meal cereal in the bags instead of paying for a pretty box.

Yep, like Furious_Female said, many no-name and store brands are made the name brand companies.

I don't mind buying no-name/store brand items... with a few exceptions though. For example, I don't buy generic choco-hazelnut spread. I get Nutella. And I don't buy store brand colas, just Coke or Pepsi.

I try to avoid knock off brands as usually their product is crap. You may save $0.75 on your purchase only to find out you wasted the $1.00 you spent on something that doesn't taste right, work as well or will break promptly.
