I don't mind most of the store-branded stuff from SuperTarget. It is cheaper and in certain cases better than the name brand. However there are a few things where generic won't do: Heintz Ketchup is a must as well as Charmin or Northern toilet paper and name brand "personal products." Oh and I have to have Tide laundry detergent!

There are a few things:
  • Tropicana OJ
  • Jif PB (after all, "choosy Moms choose Jif" )
  • Dawn (it just works better!)
  • Lysol spray
  • Coca-Cola (I do buy Pepsi if it's on sale and we're having a party or something though)
  • Cereal (DH and the kids will NOT eat generic brand)
  • Kellogg's Pop Tarts
  • Quaker Granola Bars

Poptarts must be Kellogs!
Kraft mac-n-cheese

Cinnamin Rolls, I usually get the pilsbury but I have bought the store brand before, there okay not bad, not great.

Pasta sauce- I can go either way, I really do like the Acme brand meat flavored one.
