name brands VS store brands

[dogsarebetter]

When you go grocery shopping do you get name brand or store brand. If you get both, what are some stuff that you HAVE to have in name brand?

I buy almost all store brand.

But I have to have:
bunny bread honey wheat
Peter pan creamy peanut butter with honey
Nature Vally granola bars
Purity Chocolate milk

I HONESTLY cannot tell much difference at all in store brands and name brands. but with those I can.

I do almost everything store brand lol eggs, milk etc.. stuff that is basically the same

I stick the name brand for only a few things that wouldn't be the same store brand, like my favorite cereal

[dogsarebetter]

I even use store brand toilet paper LOL

I buy almost completely store brand. Some think that I buy name brand: salsa, cereal, oat bran, and olive oil.

I try to buy store brand as much as possible, there are some things that I buy the name brand because I like it better but I cant really think of what at the moment.

Oh yes, the bbq sauce I buy is name brand, and so is the salad dressing.

but things we MUST have name brand

toilet paper (cottonelle)

toothpaste (usually colgate or crest)

My girly time of month supplies lol (always and tampax)

I only buy name brand if I have a coupon and it's cheaper than the store brand.
