Ann Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 What are some name brand items that you always prefer to buy over generics/store brands in the grocery store? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jstdzy Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 Green Giant canned whole green beans! The generics always seem to have stems. Dana Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ann Posted October 2, 2009 Author Share Posted October 2, 2009 I'm not too picky when it comes to name brands versus store brands, since I always like to save money. But, one thing that has to be right is hubby's coffee. It MUST be Folgers....always Flogers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muriel Posted October 2, 2009 Share Posted October 2, 2009 So many Maxwell House coffee (Columbian), Land O' Lakes margarine/butter, Bush's baked beans (love the dog in their commercials), Green Giant or Del Monte canned vegies (for the same reason as Dana), All laundry detergent, the list goes on and on . . . . . Why? More dependable than store or generic brands. I do buy Publix potato chips Muriel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Snowflake Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Tide and Downy - same soap and softener, no skin issues....can't do that cute little Snuggle bear stuff, itchin' within minutes.... Charmin toilet paper...like the commercials with the little bear, doesn't collect on the tush! Oh, and either Breyer's or Edy's ice cream!

lilyjohn Posted October 3, 2009 Share Posted October 3, 2009 Katsup definately the top 3 brands any one will do. I do a lot of cooking and while in Louisiana I learned to depend on Zaterans everything, fish fry, crab boil and seasoning. Can't be beaten for cajun food and most other things too. Coffee for years it had to be Folger's but now I find when I make my coffee strong that it has a bitter taste so I swithced to Maxwell House and it is good to the last drop Believe me I drink a pot every morning.
