Saving Money 101: The don't-go-cheap edition

By | 8:04 AM 7 comments
So, I mentioned in the last Saving Money 101 post that there are some things I just can't go cheap on.

For us those items include:

- Breakstone Cottage Cheese
- Diapers (Huggies or Pampers)
- Aveeno Lotion
- Bush's Baked Beans
- Toilet Paper
- Dove Conditioner

What about you? What items are a must have for your family...even without a sale or coupon?

You know mine! STARBUCKS COFFEE=) I can always find it on sale at ONE of my stores though, thank goodness!

I agree with you on the TP too!

Charmin TP and all of my hair products have to be salon. Luckily my BFF works in a beauty supply store and I get the before mark-up price then her discount, so I pay less for Redkin than I would Suave.

Famous Amos Cookies (when you have to have them - there is no substitute!), Coffee, baby wipes, ketchup, tampons/pads (TMI?), ice cream...to name a few. I am with you on the Bush's beans too!!

Caribou or Bucks coffee...
I scored 360 Walgreens diapers through a Fatwallet deal for $44.88 with FREE SHIPPING and they worked just as good as the Huggies we used So I've added Walgreens diapers to the list...
