Do name brands and labels matter to you?

Does brand matter to you? Are you willing to buy the exact same product if it's made by either a brand you usually don't buy, or is even generic?

I'm always willing to try new things or may settle for a substitute, but name brands do matter to me. Yes they do.

Name brands aren't all that important, but some things HAVE to be the brand, don't EVER get generic Pepto Bismal, it does NOT work at all. Peter Pan Peanut Butter, NEVER AGAIN, my mother got salmonella poisoning from it so at all costs we avoid Peter Pan peanut butter, we get generic usually, and we eat the Skippy stuff and Jif's okay, but we are never touching Peter Pan again. Also, canned peas, I can eat just about any brand, generic, Del Monte, Le Seur, but nobody else in the family will eat anything BUT Le Seur, and it's understandable, they are the best.

for the most part no, it doesnt really matter.

just dont mess wit my dr. pepper, i aint for that mr pibb s**t!! ugh

For the most part, it doesn't matter to me if the product is the same. I'll buy brand name for some things but I'll also buy generic. Some brand names I avoid, though!!!

thats vice versa for me, love Pepsi, dont drink coke

For food and around the home things, I am find with store brands. But with clothing I am a bit of a brand and label snob. But I am a good bargain hunter, so I don't break the bank in that area either.

I don't care about brands, but there are some things that I don't like. Generic mac n cheese, no. I also don't like clothes that are an advertisement for a company. Whether it's Old Navy or Ralph Lauren, I don't want your name on my chest or on my kid's chest.
