Good Products And Bad Products (My Experiences)

[jasonbigley]

I would never buy jackets from JCPenney again. My mom bought me a winter coat from there back in 2003 and the damn zipper busted off shortly after. I got another coat there in 2005 and the damn zipper broke off that one also. I got a pair of shoes in 2006 from Family Dollar and they were very comfortable and durable (to my surprise). The only sneakers I buy now are New Balance. I love that brand because they are durable and comfortable. I like the hand sanitizer from Dollar Tree because it has a lotion in with it and it is not a over powering smell. I will never buy Nike socks again. They wanted 20 dollars for 2 - 4 pair and the damn things started to tear up after a few washes. Dawn Dish Soap is the only soap I use for dishes and/or cleaning. I only need 2 small drops of that and it is so sudsy. Those off brand dish soaps I can pour a half bottle and it would still not be sudsy. I like Tide laundry detergent because I only need a half cap of that stuff and the laundry is very sudsy. If I had to choose an off brand laundry soap that is good, I would go with Sun. I tried that before and it is great. For garbage bags, I only use Hefty because I had some bad experiences with the generic garbage bags. I have a few Carrhart shirts and they are very durable. I have some Champion shirts and they are very durable also. I have heard some stories from different people about American Eagle and Abercrombie and Fitch being that they tear very easily after a few washes and they are thin. I have a Bissell vacuum cleaner and that thing picks up a lot of dirt. Stay away from WalMart socks- they are worse than the Nike socks. What are your experiences with different products? That way people can know ahead of time what to buy and what NOT to buy and save themselves some money.
