Saturday Meme (#1)
1. Food: Do you buy brand names or go for the cheaper store name brand?:
> It really depends on the product- toilet paper, ketchup, you know the important stuff- gotta be a certain brand!
2. Clothes: Wear designer jeans/slacks with a brand name or regular department store jeans/slacks?:
> I am casual and haven’t spend too much on myself in the way of clothes since I had the boys!
3. Handbags: Buy a designer bag or look for a less expensive copy?:
Yep- buy the imitation!
4. Shoes: You got the drift, designer or a cheaper copy?:
I think I buy VERY good shoes, but I don’t simply buy them because a certain name is attached!

Good and practical! I’m right there with you on the toilet paper thing… can’t skimp on the TP
Thanks for swinging by!

Northern TP only. Best Foods Mayo only. Coffee has to be Starbucks House Blend now (but I just decided that this week).
I haven’t found any bra that was comfortable in at least 5 years except Olga’s tapestry.
No skimping on shoes or handbags, but designer is not the point. Comfort = shoes…not cost or brand. Cross the body,medium size,compartmented = handbag…whatever the price.
Pretty cheap about everything else though.

Speaking of groceries, our local Harris Teeter (in Southeastern US) honors triple coupons!
