What is a product you'll pay a little more for?
Where you absolutely refuse to go the cheap way.
For me its deodorant. Everything else I've found but my chosen brand fails me.

Pretty much everything, nowadays.
I came across a saying "Buy nice or buy twice" and that resonated with me. Another variation I have seen is "Buy once, cry once".
Getting cheap trash that will fall apart in a few months that you will have to eventually re-buy isn't going to help, but that doesn't mean you buy gold-plated or diamond-encrusted items. Spending a little bit more for most items usually gets you something that will work better, last longer, or both. Good quality stuff is usually backed with good warranties too.
I spend my time researching to see what product is the best for me, look for deals online, or even buy used if I have to.
No problems paying for quality. We need more of it in this world. But when they market themselves as such but aren’t… now that ruffles my jimmies
Consumables are a great place to save. 99% of the time, the store brand cookie, or whatever, is mostly the same as the name brand. A lot of the time they're even coming from the same factory.
I generally only follow this for things that are luxuries anyway. If I'm buying tools I buy the cheapest, crappiest version of it I can find. Then if it breaks, it means I've probably used it enough to warrant the expensive version.
