poppins Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 Always buy decent deodorant, cos cheap stuff doesn't work. And buy decent aftershave, cos cheap stuff doesn't smell nice. Never buy cheap mince, cos its false economy. Cheap mince meat is the only kind that you can make a decent hamburger with...it has to have a certain % of fat in it to taste like anything.

Some of the cheap stuff over here is almost all fat and virtually disappears when you cook it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordChaverly Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I usually treat myself to goods from poundland rather than trudging all the way to the 99p shop. Extravagant I know, but you only live once. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't mind spending on bathbombs/smellies from lush so I can have a really nice bath Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

relost Posted January 8, 2011 Share Posted January 8, 2011 I always buy Aussie 3 minute miracle for my hair to use a couple of times a week. I always use No7 make up, which isn't cheap but I think why buy cheap make up (much to the confuddlement of the fella). There are certain things when shopping for food when I always seem to buy the brand names.... such as Yoghurt's, mayonnaise, bread., butter/ spread- not entirely sure why. Brand loyalty I guess Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
marmite Posted January 9, 2011 Share Posted January 9, 2011 I spent 85 pound on a watch with my first paycheck at my new job. I can't live without it, and its rubbish. I have had it mended 3 times. Other than that I stick out like a tramp in Selfridges.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheap mince also has a higher water content in. Beef mince tends to be much leaner than pork and lamb anyway, so fat content doesn't need to be high, in order to develop taste, some herbs, mustard and a bit of seasoning can go along way, but its nice to start with a proper mince.
