Your Favorite Brand(s)

I float between Crest and Colgate. I love Crest White Strips.

My brands: Clinique, Kiehl's, Evian, Honda/Acura.

Can R1 be gayer? Aveeno is right for my parched skin. I wear the Gap! I use bath and body works body wash. Dawn soap Because they washed oil covered ducks. Scott TP. Persil, tide or at least Gain. My brands: Clinique, Kiehl's, Evian, Honda/Acura.

Tanqueray gin, Hellmann's mayonnaise, and full-sized black Bic lighters. For everything else I have two or three brands that are acceptable, or it doesn't matter at all.

Hendricks for the gin. Hellman’s for the mayo. Grey Poupon for the mustard. Basic Nivea for men face products. Like R3, other than that not very brand loyal.

Lea & Perrins worcestershire sauce, Tide liquid laundry detergent (no Febreeze or Oxywhatever added), Colgate Total toothpaste, Astroglide (regular stuff) and Bounty (not Essentials) paper towel.

Summer’s Eve.

Magnums

Mitchum roll on antiperspirant/deodorant.

I used to love Mitchum until they changed the formula sometime in the aughts or early teens.

Bounty and Dove soap.

remember Mentadent toothpaste?

Louisiana Gold Pepper Sauce, Martin rice. We make our own mustards, tomato ketchup and mayonnaise - why don't you?

Kirk's Castile soap.

Berkley Jenson TP.

Lindquist Group for domestic staffing, and our housekeeper is permitted to set whatever other brands are wanted. Kitchen and pantry items listed are from agreements set with our cook.

Dunhill cigarettes for thirty years id the brand I gave up on twenty years ago and as a consequence, I'm still here.

Otherwise I've stuck with Stafford heavyweight t-shirts from Penney's, Allen Edmonds shoes and New Balance sneakers (even though NB's owners are assholes, they're assholes making wide sizes and I have big feet), LG appliances, American Airlines, Hellman's mayonnaise, Pur water filters, Grav labs glassware, Sofia Coppola (domestic) and Pol Roger Cuvee Winston Churchill (French) champagne, Lenovo computers, Omega watches, Vanguard for investments, and the sane members of the Democratic Party to represent me.

"is" not "id"

Yorkshire Gold tea. All other brands taste like piss.

Lancôme moisturizer for the face. I’ve used it every day for almost 30 years.

Plus-size Depends

Shoes: Ivanka.

I have never heard of any of R18’s brands.

R25 You weren't meant to. He's barely heard of them himself.

I'd like to hear about brands where you buy more than just one of their products. I use Aveeno body wash, but that's all I use as far as the Aveeno brand.

I like Kirkland (Costco) of a lot of things. The liquid laundry soap (no scent), water filters for my Brita pitcher (way cheaper), etc.

Stretch-Tite. I like the Costco/Kirkland version best (which is real Stretch-Tite, not some pale imitation), because the 750 foot roll lasts about two years.

When I saw it in an Australian supermarket, I knew they were discerning people, or at least when it comes to cling wrap.

What is it with all these people that use Hellman’s mayo? Everyone knows, Duke's Mayo is the *best* mayo! Sir Kensington's mayo (and other related products) are also very good

I don't buy any article of clothing with writing or logos on it.

No more overpriced skincare, well except for Baxter. They make a good under eye cream

[quote]I have never heard of any of R18’s brands

I'm sure R18 has plenty of original paintings by Sandro Botticelli. He must be richer than Jeff Bezos.

Staleks (Ukrainian brand) for cuticle nippers. I know it sounds silly, but I was wanting a good pair of the nippers / cutters and I found them on eBay. You can buy them with a longer cutting edge than you can at the drugstore. The price is about the same as drugstore brands.

Heinz ketchup

I always thought I liked Heinz the best, then I was "forced" to eat Hunt's ketchup at a small diner. Guess what? Hunt's was really good, maybe better than Heinz.

I also tried Kensington Ketchup. Expensive, upscale ketchup, not as good as Heinz and Hunt's.

R38 - “ What is it with all these people that use Hellman’s mayo? Everyone knows, Duke's Mayo is the *best* mayo!

I disagree. After at least 30+ years of using Hellman’s, I decided last month to give Duke’s a try. Bottom line, it’s too acidic for my taste. Too much lemon juice. I offered and gave the bottle to my neighbor. Back to Hellmans I go.

Colgate, Tide, Dawn, Scott’s, Aveeno, Barilla..

White wine - Kung Fu Girl - Riesling

Red wine - Ménage à trois - white label California red blend

R69, A few years ago, Tyne Daly revealed that she's practically addicted to Hellman's Mayonnaise and known to eat it straight out of the jar.

Yummy. Yes R78, it’s true. I’m Tyne@ R69.

Yummy. Yes R72, it’s true. Tyne here @ [R69].

Gin: Plymouth

Bourbon: also blech (too sweet)

Scott 1000 Sheets Per Roll Toilet Paper

I won't let anything else touch my hole.

Toothpaste: Colgate, simple clean and a fraction of the price of Crest. "Crest Charcoal 3D White" actually erodes your enamel

Deodorant: Mitchum, it doesn't smell, doesn't stain, and it works

Shower Gel: Old Spice, Krakkengard scent

Not really a brand person, more a category person.

Soap: French milled bar soap

Soda: Diet Coke from a fountain (except very picky about this)

Cars: Japanese (German cars, never again. They can't withstand S FL heat.)

Dogs: Pugs, brand unimportant

Gold toe ankle socks bitches!! Pop socket by pop socket. Store brand milk. Windex. Olay bar soap. Usually a burts bees chapstick but I can’t find it so I have some blistex in a blue jar.

Some of you sound like homeless people...

I love the Simple Truth organic products sold at Ralph’s here in LA. Not sure how widely available they are.

R28 omg yes, Stretchtite leaves all other plastic wraps in the dust. Compared to Stretchtite, they barely cling.

Olay Active Hydrating Beauty Fluid Lotion ORIGINAL

Blistex DCT

Some food brands:

Penzey's spices. Making chicken paprika today with their sweet Hungarian paprika.

San Pellegrino, plain. I used to drink the Whole Foods version, too, as it's 1/3 cheaper, but I hate to go there now.

De Cecco pasta. Usually cavatappi, angel hair, or bucatini.

Cento whole peeled tomatoes. I don't bother with the San Marzano variety. The regular ones are fine. But I always buy the whole ones, which I squish by hand or, more often, puree with my stick blender. I never use diced tomatoes, which have some chemical added that keeps their edges hard.

Coleman’s bacon

[quote] Shoes: Discount, Amazon warehouse or DSW

[quote] Food: Just not picky, don't care. Just calories

[quote] Soda: Diet Coke from a fountain (except very picky about this)

R78, appreciate your detailed list, but have to say the shoes and food parts sound depressing. I don't understand being picky about soda but not caring about food & shoes.

R78 which fountain Diet Coke do you like best? I find that McDonald’s has very good fountain soda.

Original Noxzema, All Free & Clear detergent, Downy Free softener, Finish dishwasher tabs, Crest toothpaste, Hellman's mayo, and Ivory bar soap.

Boar's Head cold cuts

Bounty paper towels. I previously used Brawny but when I mentioned that here a DLer viciously verbally slapped me informing me that Brawny was a Koch Brothers company. Message received.

Brawny is Koch? Nooooo. Why?!!?!? Damn it!

I use Viva / Kleenex paper towels as clean-up towels & to blow my nose, etc.

Presto! is my new favorite brand for TP and PT. It's an Amazon exclusive.

Crest toothpaste and mouthwash. Heinz ketchup, French's yellow mustard. Herdez salsa. Head Country BBQ sauce. Puffs tissues. Advil. Fancy Feast cat food.

Other than that I am deliriously free of brand loyalty.

r85 - I know it sounds that way, though I am finicky about wearing nice shoes. They need to all leather, w/right cut, color and heel. But, I do not pay retail. I found DSW and Amazon Warehouse have the best overall discounts. I just don't care what brand the shoes are.

I am not a food person. Just is not something I care about. I have to be reminded to eat.

r86 - Yes, McDonalds fountain coke is my favorite. Just the right combination of syrup, seltzer and ice water.

As I've gotten older, there are just some shoes I cannot wear and I hate it. I stick with Clark's Shoes... they are top notch and come in great styles.

I should just Bump the Mallstagia thread.

Soap/Bodywash- Lever 2000, It's getting harder to find I have to buy off of eBay. Cologne-Navy for men Deodorant-Right Guard or Old Spice Mayo-Hellmans Ketchup-Del Monte but will buy Hunts if I have to Potato Chips-UTZ Brand Noxema! Takes years off me! Don't ask about all the hair care products I use! My hairspray bill alone is enough to eat all the profits from the Tilt a Whirl!

R78, I knew I'd forget something! I am loyal to RayBan, several sunglasses and eyeglasses.
