My wife and I were in Costco recently and came across the big tubs of laundry detergent. I moved instinctively towards the store-brand Kirkland, but then I got The Look. Umm no. We are going to spend the extra 4 bucks and buy the Tide. Tip for the soon to be married - pick your battles wisely 4 bucks is not worth it. We got the name-brand Bounce dryer sheets too. (Why we even need dryer sheets at all is beyond me)
This came to mind today as I was flipping through a free trial issue of Consumer Reports magazine I received. They compared 24 laundry detergents, and guess which was a CR Best Buy and beat out Tide? Yep, Kirkland Signature. Which got me to thinking, what products are we okay with ‘going generic’ with, and which are we not? Any why? It’s actually pretty funny, and doesn’t really make much sense at times.
Generic d savings on items such as drugs such as viagra levitra and cialis or tadalafil sildenafil and verdenafil. Why there are so many different brand names for Ibuprofen astounds me. Yes, Advil, Motrin, and Nuprin may have nice ads and pretty boxes, but who the heck cares? As long as the active ingredients and amounts are the same, it doesn’t matter. We also buy generics for Tylenol (Acetominophen), Benadryl (Diphenhydramimine), and Nyquil (Combo of stuff). Ask any doctor, it’s all the same, just get over it so the placebo effect doesn’t cost you money.
People have decided to use the internet to save more money and time and generic products and generic goods seem to fill the nitch. Sildenafil and tadalafil or generic viagra and cialis are examples of this shopping boom and discount awareness of the public.
