Are You A Brand Conscious?

There are some things that I will buy that are only named brand. Like macaroni and cheese. I find the off brands not as good as the Kraft brand. I will usually try and off brand and see if I like it. If I do I have no problem buying it again.

on some items, i will admit, it has to be brand name.... but on other items, if its knock off brand and its 1/3 the price, why not save money? i mean, look at soda. the cheap stuff tastes the same as the stuff that is 4x the price.... or at least i think so....

I'll but brands when it's afforable.

I buy few name brands. and it depends on what is in the ingredients. I worked in the food industry and I learned the often the store brands are just the name brands in disguise. Loike Wal-mart store brand of mac & cheese could be Krafts. And green beans are grean bean except some of them have more salt or have sugar in them.

I definitely am. I look for brands which strike a good balance with reputation and price. However, I'm not crazy enough to buy things whose prices are over the roof! Good day to you.

ya,, i shop by brand first wen i found it too much expensive then go for a price option..

I shop by price whether the name brand be cheaper or the store brand be cheaper...I buy what is the cheapest by unit...such as the libby's veggies at shaws a couple of months ago were 4/$1... I had coupons for .50/3 which of course made them free..... I had so many veggies stalked ahead but dh then was diagnosed with high blood pressure along with other things so I had to take all 100 cans down to my dad's house cause we can't eat them here as they have way to much salt in them... oh well...

Normally, I buy by price. But, like everyone else, there are certain things I like only the name brand version. Kraft is my choice in mac and cheese as well. Also, I prefer to have Swanson Chicken broth instead of other brands, and t.v dinners, we buy only Healthy Choice.

No I am probably more price conscious than brand conscious.

I shop by brand. I would never by something cheap. I'm not loyal to a specific brand, but I want a known one - only when we talk TVs and other stuff like that. If we talk clothing and food and other items like that then I don't care about the brand.

there are some things to many to list that i want brand name but price is a big part of my shopping routine

I am pretty conscious of what I wear. Labeled clothes look better to me in some way.

sometimes it is both, depending on our money. if my dad doesnt give that much to my mom, then she buys the cheapest product. if he does, she buys the best brand from the product.

I stick to certain brands but I find the item that I want and I wait for it to go onsale. When it reaches the price that i am willing to pay, then and only then do I purchase it. I hardly ever pay full price for anything. I taught this skill to my daughters also. They still call me when they get a good deal.

I don't really care about the brand. If it is on sale...or a good price I will buy it...

somethings yes other no, it all depends ill try something once if i like it i will buy again, if not then brand name.

I shop by price. Some brands.. even though expensive, but the quality is rubbish.

Yes. I am a Brand freak. specially shoes.. only NIKE

Before yes I am. But now that I'm already a mom, I tend to be more thrifty and buy the lower priced item.
