Before I came to college, and I wasn't on a very strict budget, I found myself going to the grocery store and buying all of the name brand cereals, pasta, juices anything that I would get. After coming to college and being on a budget, I found myself instead of buying the name brand, buying the generic brand that the store carried. I know for things like cereal and pasta, there was at least a $2 difference in the product. Two dollars may not seem like a whole lot, but when it comes down to it, it adds up very fast. If you took every product in your cart and took $2 off everything, you could save a lot of money.
Do you find yourself going for the name or generic brand? Do you need to spend the extra money on the name brand to have the brand or do you just not even think about it?
