Are there any products / brand names that you are faithful to?

Mine is Motrin (ibuprofen). I swear the Motrin brand of ibuprofen is the best ever. Twenty years ago a doctor told me to try it and now that is the only type of ibuprofen I buy. In fact, I buy the huge bottles of it from Sam's Club. I don't think generic ibuprofen works as well.

Hi, baboo5. I buy Cokes, Pepsis, and other brand name soft drinks--and Ford cars, etc.

The only laser printers I buy are HP. In my experience their printers have been reliable workhorses. I don't even bother looking at other brands.

I am a fan of several European shoe makers (Clarke, Keen, Ecco) and am pretty faithful but it's generic for me for pretty much anything else.

I'm fan on several local chips brands and house supplies. For international brands, I think M&M, Oreo, and Silver Queen.

I'm fan of Asus and Logitech. Asus for laptops and phone (Zenfone), Logitech for peripherals. Reason because both are really high quality with reasonable price.

I'm really brand name faithful, on a ton of stuff.

Laundry detergent - Tide,
Cleaner - Mr. Clean
Toothpase - Colgate
Shampoo - head and shoulders
Spaghetti Sauce - Classico

There's a ton more that I could list. I just find that once I find something that works, I want to stick with it.

I have not had soda in years but I used to love cream soda.
I am not sure but I think it is just a north east thing.

I love Penn fishing reels and have stuck with them for many years.
A good solid product for a decent price.

Gain laundry detergent, gain scented air freshener are my favorite scents ever. I have sensitive skin and am allergic to tide and other detergents but gain never fails me.

I am faithful to Diet Coke, Diet Mountain Dew and Lay's Original Potato Chips. Also, you just can't have one Lay's Potato chip. I've tried, it's impossible.

Great....now I want a bag of Lay's Potato Chips...

Apple and Samsung, mainly. New Balance and Clarks shoes. And Jiffy peanut butter. My husband won't do anything but Jiffy. Even with all the junk chemicals in it.
