Icecream Surprise

We have always purchased store-brand icecream. We purchase the store brand for most groceries. I have always wondered why people would be willing to pay such high prices just to get a particular name brand. Well, my husband ran into the store, today after church, to purchase icecream. They didn't have the storebrand. Imagine that, an empty freezer section. That is typical for our current time frame. Anyway, he bought an expensive store brand. I would have just walked out without purchasing any ice cream. But we got home and begin to eat our icecream. All of a sudden, I realized why people buy those more expensive brands. The taste was so much better. Now, I don't know if I will be able to bring myself to spend that kind of money, regularly, but it was certainly a clarification of why people swear by those expensive brands.

Ice cream...... Oh no. I cannot ice cream now. I just recovered. So I have to restrict myself from eating cold and sweet, if not; I'll be back in cough and flu.

For some products, the brand truly makes the difference. I'm sometimes like you, just buying the store brands, because they are so much cheaper, but for certain products I prefer the name brand ones.

The same feeling I have having to buy the Great Value soft drinks which are cheaper than the name brand. The name brand usually has a sweeter taste than the generic brand.

Some store brands are as good as, if not better than, the big brand names. In some things we buy store brand, in others, the name brand. It just depends.

There are just a couple of products where I buy special brands but mostly I stick to the cheaper ones.
