Name brands or no name brands?

It depends on the item for me, there are certain things that i will buy named brand only, but the rest of the time i will buy cheaper brands, especially for stocking up on freezer food and stuff to go into the cupboards. Dry pasta for example, a stores own brand one will cost me 19p, or a branded one will cost me 80p, so i but the stores own brand as it all tastes them same once its cooked in with something.

It really depends on the products, some are okay to buy no name brands as you say like household cleaners and the like. But for food I usually go for popular ones because there is quality in taste. But for condiments or seasoning its okay to buy the cheaper ones its just the same.

We have a generic store bran here that is literally called No Name Brand, no kidding. Yellow boxes, yellow bags, yellow packaging. They make everything from ice cream to kitty litter. We have so many yellow packages in our house it's amazing. Theire stuff is cheap, and it's all really good. Their Vainlla Ice Cream is the B E S T ! ! ! We also buy generic brands from other stores too, when we are there. We don't always need a big name brand, for a good product.

It depends on what I get and whether or not it is on sale. When it comes to milk I will go for name brand over no name brand as I prefer to buy the organic stuff. It may cost more, but it's worth it for the health of my family. When it comes to cereal I have bought the no name brand before, but only because the store I'd gone to wanted too much for the name brand cereal. What's funny though is that this store is supposed to be known for it's low prices. Go figure! LOL Wal-Mart on the other hand usually has such good prices on all their cereal that I go for name brand whenever I shop there. Happy mylotting!

The no name or supermarket own name are usually cheaper as you say but frankly I can see little difference between the quality and content than the 'famous' names. You are just paying for the big brands' higher overheads and marketing hype. After all, somebody has to and it will be passed on to the gullible consumer.

I prefer to always buy the bigger bags of stuff that cost less. So I guess that would be the no name brands, when I compare nutrients and what not, there is very very little difference. I have no idea what Rice Bubbles are, and I don't really like Cornflakes, I much prefer my fruit-ios. Cheers.
