toothpaste and floss
My husband insists on Charmin TP
Huggies diapers and wipes
We're not too picky with food.

Arm and Hammer Detergent is the best for sensitive skin
Miracle Whip
Ritz crackers (off brand isn't the same)
Cherry coke or Pepsi ( don't like store brand coke)
Kraft is the best Mac and Cheese
Bar S Jumbo hotdogs are the best
Sweet Baby Ray's BBQ sauce
Maruchen Ramen noodles DH doesn't like the off brand.
Brach's and Jelly Belly Jelly beans are the best although I will eat the Wal-mart brand.


I have found that Parent's choice sensitive or organic wipes are just as soft as Huggies or Pampers.
The Great Value Spaghetti sauce is as good as Prego (in fact alot of great value brands are actually made by name brand companies, DH works there and knows this)
I can use White Cloud for diapers

Kraft Parmasan Cheese!!!!
Kraft Mac&Cheese!
Huggies Diapers (I'll buy other name brands, but not generic brand of diapers)

Those are my biggest ones, I'm sure theres more though.

Name brand-
Tea. Big sweet tea drinkers and don't like the genarics all that much although they are better than no tea so they will work!
Mayo- I only buy Duke's which is a mayo I don't think you can buy in the north. Don't remember ever seeing it when I lived up north- "southern style mayo"
Toilet Paper- I have a few brands I tend to stick to and stock up when there is a sale.
Baby wipes- prefer the name brands but use coupons
Lunch Meat- I only buy the Roast Beef but I like the name brand ones as opposed to the genaric ones.
Mac and Cheese- I hardly ever buy it but when I do I like Kraft.

I just can't buy generic -
Pop Tarts! ~ I know it's silly but I eat pop tarts almost everyday for breakfast and generic just doesn't taste the same!
Pampers Diapers & Wipes ~ They are expensive but I wait until they're "on sale" and I use coupons.
Vanilla Coke! ~ Nothing else comes close!
I HAVE to have Mentadent Toothpaste - I can't stand any other brand.
DH will not eat any other brand of mac & cheese than Kraft.
Juicy Juice & Organic Motts for DS ~ I feel best giving that to him... even though I still water it down!
I think that's it.... we're not that picky about other foods.

Name brands I can't compromise:
Always pads
A&W Root Beer or Cream Soda
Victoria's Secret body spray
Lip Smackers Dr. Pepper lip gloss(haven't used any thing else in 8 years!)
Campbell's Chunky soups
Nesquick strawberry syrup
Kelloggs rice crispy treats
Some of these are rare treats.

NEVER buy name brand:
diapers (walmart or Sam's Club-big box)
wipes(walmart Sam's Club-big box)
bread
instant rice
Canned vegetables
I try to buy the cheapest thing in most cases.
