Things you can't go cheap on
 

I was just thinking, there are some things that you just can't go cheap on.... the obvious ones are like, condoms, parachutes, etc....they are all different for everyone so what are yours?

Cereal - can't stand the generic cereals... suck
Bread - can't stand the hard, dry crappy bread
Chocolate Milk - hershey syrup, and nesquik only!!!
Paintballs - They break if you go cheap, so dont
Writable Cd's - the paint chips off, dont go cheap
tooth paste/ tooth brush - dunno why, just can't do it
DVD players - can't do the cheap thing, picture quality DOES suck with the $30 ones


that's all I can think of for now... what about you?

Dr. Pepper. Dr. Thunder and other cheap incarnations suck. The only replacement for Dr. Pepper is Mr. Pibb.


/me shrugs and walks away

oh yeah, good one... mt. dew imitations blow!!

Cheap Sushi. Definitely be wary of that. But then again, over-expensive sushi is also bad.

Really cheap used video games. It's not like the old era where everything was cartridge. Now you can get some mighty-nasty scratched games that don't work. I bought Halo for $5 and it doesn't load the Pillar of Autumn, but that's about it.

I guess it was worth it for $5.

Oh and clothes. Especially pants. Having pants rip open to start your day is one of the greatest feelings in the world. Thank god for gym strips.

Cola - Pepsi is best, Coke is ok
Reese's peanut butter cups - the other brands are NO comparison
Frozen pizza - it is hard to do pizza right anyway

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

I cant go cheap on:


Sushi
Coffee
Sub Sandwiches
Clothes
Pizza
Cereal Bars, the cheap ones are disgusting.

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

Yeah, instant coffee that comes in packets is disgusting. I don't even know why they make that stuff.

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

Yeah.

Hence Starbucks.

And I cant go cheap on clothes....I just cant.....Its horrible. I payed 92 bucks for my pants....And 25 bucks for my Corona hat.



But I also cant cheap out on dates. Like, not...the fig....but the thing where you go out with a girl. I cant cheap out on those. I have to buy everything. Unless its one of those "cute stay at home in the backyard because its purdy" kind of dates.

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

i buy my clothes pretty much exclusively at JC pennies... because I love arizona jeans

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

Well I've gone dutch on dates plenty of times and it hasn't affected me. My karma is good.

It's all in your attitude.

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

No no no....I just mean I cant not buy things. Nothing to do with impressing her. When I go out anywhere with people I have to buy stuff. Like it kills me to not offer to pay for your ****ing coffee....haha.



****, I shouldnt have said that.

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

There there. My unlimited change box understands.

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

I'm sure their are things that I don't like to cheap out on...but I can't think of any.

The closest would be not buying second hand pants.

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

Mayonnaise - Cheap mayo iis just horribly nasty
Cheese - It doesn't have the flavor the more expensive ones have
Dr. Pepper - Only one passable is Mr. Pibb but the original is so much better
Computer Parts - Sometimes I can but I buy name brand usually for a reason

Re: Things you can't go cheap on
 

Almost everything I buy, I tend to go for the silghtly pricier ones.

Not that I've got money to spend...if I can't buy the pricier one, then I don't buy it at all.
