jlhfan624 Question

What are some things that you will ONLY use the brand name of?

For example, I will ONLY EVER (and I do mean ever) use Philadelphia cream cheese. Anything else is an insult lol I also prefer:

~ Daisy sour cream
~ Soda
~ Michel Design Works bath bar
~ Toilet paper (any kind as long as it's not store brand)
~ Icy Hot
~ Vicks
~ Orajel

For the most part, I do not mind "generic" things. They're more affordable and depending upon what it is, are sometimes better than the OG. I'm curious to see what you all have to say! :)

soda (seriously, generic soda has way too much salt!)
pads/liners (are you kidding!?)
nail cream
toothpaste
mouthwash
detergent
soap (I have really sensitive skin, I can't even use Dove, so...)
deodorant (same reason)

Tbh, I'm not really picky and I think that in some cases generic works just as well as name brand and I love saving money but in these certain cases I can't trust them, sorry.

I'm very sensitive with deodorant too. Secret gives me a bad rash, but most others are fine.

That’s actually brand new information to me. Here we don’t have generic brands, only brands that are generally slightly cheaper than others. But there are some things I only buy from certain brands, even if they are more expensive:

- milk (fresh or powdered)
- deodorant
- soap
- toilet paper
- pads
- razors (Gillette is the only one that doesn’t irritate my skin.)

Oh I forgot razors! Do you use the Gillette ones with the soft water-activated pads (don't know what else to call them) on them? Those are my favorite!

Yes, those ones! They may cost 3x more than ordinary razors, but they are worthy 😂

Good pick! I refuse to use anything else!
