What products do you not scrimp on?

For me, it's trash bags!  The cheap ones are practically worthless, in my opinion!

You are SOOOOOOOOOOOO right when it comes to trash bags!  The cheaper ones are just that...CHEAP!  I buy good ones, too, but the one thing I don't scrimp on is my facial cleansing line.  I use Clinique and find it amazing and well worth the money spent especially since I am getting older and see the benefits more clearly now.

I always buy antiviral tissue. I don't buy antibacterial soap but I think the antiviral tissue is good.

cat food is something i can't scrimp on.
the dang spoiled thing  :sad1: she'll starve
herself before she'll eat any other brand.
i suppose i should add cat litter, too...
i hate the cheap, dusty kind. you really
pay for what you get when it comes to
cat crap.

deodorant, because i learned way back
in health class in middle school that
antiperspirants can cause breast cancer
through sweat build-up in the glands.
i buy the good stuff because i'm paranoid...

that's about it. i'm pretty scrimpy  :P

I don't scrimp on sneakers and shoes.  I get a lot of stress fractures in my feet to begin with, and I had a bruised heelbone as a preteen that took almost a year to heal.  Adidas sneakers and slides, as well as Birkenstocks, seem to work best for me.

Mayonaise and Peanut Butter. I've tried the store brands but really don't like them.
