We all have things that we buy that we refuse to skimp on and get the off brand. Let's hear what yours are?

I have three:
cheese

    Saran Wrap - If I buy the cheap stuff I end up wasting half of it.

    Maple Syrup - Has to be the real stuff, preferably transported back from NH when I go to visit. I buy it by the gallon

    Bras/Undies - I like Fredericks

    Honey- must be local

    Popcorn- I won't eat microwave popcorn. I have an oil popper and I love it.

    Most everything else I buy as cheap as possible.

    Many of the things that have already been mentioned. I will add

    Purses (would rather have one high quality purse than 10 cheapies)
    Jewelry (I only wear white and yellow gold, silver and iron stain my skin and give me hives)
    Electronics (computer, phone, etc. quality pays ten fold)

    I totally agree with your list and would also include coffee and tea really anything I'm going to ingest, make up (don't use nearly as much as I used to but what I buy is quality), skin care. I've adopted a minimalist lifestyle so it's all around a less is more situation. I buy much less but buy quality. I think overall I save money and am more satisfied with what I have.

    If that's in your budget, you're probably not too worried about buying generics.
