Sometimes you get what you pay for. Sometimes you don’t. Let me explain. There are times where it pays to spend more on something. Jewelry, for example. Going from 14K gold to 10K gold isn’t really going to make a huge difference in the look of a piece. The value will go down as will the cost. If you trying to save a little money, it’s an easy way to do so, without really comprising the integrity of your purchase. You’re still getting a nice item. If you have some kind of allergy to cheaper metals, this won’t work for you (my MIL can’t wear anything less than 14K gold).
On the other hand, sometimes you don’t want to buy cheaper jewelry. My husband bought me one of those pretty mother rings from a local retail store and the stones kept falling out. We kept taking it back and they kept replacing them. They didn’t give us any problems about replacing them, but finally I just returned it and got my money back. But for the record, The ring wasn’t that cheap! We spent the same amount you would anywhere else you would buy the same ring! (Okay, maybe not quite as much, but still)…
The point is, some things (flour, sugar, butter, some soups, some jewelry, some pasta, napkins, etc,) you can buy random inexpensive brands or whatever happens to be on sale at the store when you are there. Other things (chocolate, cream soups, certain pastas, eggs, lunch meats, etc) you have certain brands that you buy because they are known to produce a good quality product!
