Hello All!

What are your must get products and or stores? These are products/stores that you find are GREAT, and really worth the money, or has a some kind of BEST VALUE. These are products you would recommend to your close friends and relatives? LOL!

I'll start:

Baking Soda - Use for everything (teeth, upset stomach and cleaning around the house.

Revlon Lipsticks - GREAT PRICE, great value, great product.

General Electric appliances - I have had my stove and washer and dryer for 12 years with no problems at all.

COSTCO - Awesome customer service. If you are not satisifed you can return the item at anytime for a full refund. Great products and GREAT services such as Ameriprise Car and Home Insurance. The insurance cost for my home and auto's could not be beat!

Dooney and Bourke purses! I only shop the outlets. You get the real deal purse that could have been sold at any major department store for a fraction of the cost. Beware of Coach outlets. These purses are not department store purses.

Anyone else have any great product suggestions?
 
Barkeeper's friend

Trader Joe's frozen mashed potatoes

New York brand 5 cheese Texas Toast

Blue Bell Ice Cream

Uno's Pizza Skins

King's Hawaiian Rolls
 
Starbucks VIA instant coffee. I love starbucks but can not afford $4 coffee everyday. I bought these online and got a box of 8 for $5.98 that is .75 per cup. So much better than the Folgers that my company provides.
 
I Love Love Love my Toyota Prius. :banana: Went from a mini van to this 1 1/2 years ago and never regretted it at all, especially with the price of gas.

I love my Keratin hair treatment that I got last May. I have the kinky frizzy type hair that is awful to have in the south. I don't like to mess with my hair much and this treatment makes it more manageable.

For vacations we must go on a cruise, lol. It is an economical way to travel to new places, eat well, be entertained, etc.

My fly lady waterbottle. If you follow the fly lady organization website you will know what I am talking about. Its stainless steel and double insulated. Mine still has the ice in it from this morning, I just add water throughout the day.
 

I love all Frizz Ease products, especially in the heat of disney! I have very thick hair and they are amazing! :goodvibes
 
Dawn dishwashing detergent. I use it for everything!

Cherrios - I eat just about anything generic, but don't care for generic Cheerios. Love them!

Old Navy jeans - these fit my body shape well, and last forever for me!

LL Bean backpacks/lunchboxes - If my kids can't destory them, they are really well made! And the guarentee is great too! LL Bean in general is pretty awesome and worth the price.

AAA - we use our card for discounts in dining and travel and get our money out of our membership in that alone. Plus, there's the roadside assistance. :)

Chi hair straightener - works like a charm!

Goldfish crackers - I never buy generic types of these either - our whole family loves to eat these little guys!
 
Starbucks ground coffee. I'm way too cheap to go to Starbucks, but I do buy their coffee and make it at home. I also like the Via from Starbucks, but they are a bit more than I want to spend.

Gap jeans. Their sizing is consistent and they fit my body well. I want to love Old Navy jeans, but they just don't fit me well and I've tried multiple styles.

Clarks or Aerosoles shoes for work. They are super comfortable and hold up great. They are all I wear to work anymore.

iPhone. I'm sorry, I don't think I could live without it. Even if it cost $500 a month, I would have it.

This is just not true. You can usually tell the difference between a COACH outlet purse and a retail COACH purse by looking at the lining of the purse. A true COACH retail purse has a much softer lining. It really bugs me when I buy a retail COACH purse, only to see it in the outlet a month or so later.

My go to hair product is BioSilk silk therapy.

And I LOVE my Yankee candles
 
St. Ives Collagen Elastin Facial Moisturizer (not to be confused with their similar sounding body moisturizer) -- it is the BEST!!!
 
mr clean magic eraser i don't know how i ever clean the tub without it
clorox clean up
my dyson vacuum
 
I just love Costco! I have loved almost every Kirkland brand product I've tried.

Also Aveeno shampoo.
 
Bar Keepers Friend
Ulta
Bare Minerals
Mac Lip Gloss in Oh Baby
Burberry Perfume (almost any scent from Burberry)
 
I'll second the Starbucks Via, although I only buy them for travel and one to keep in my purse for coffee emergencies. :lmao: And also loving my Prius these days, when I only fill that little tank once every two weeks. I wasn't crazy about it when DH bought it, but it's grown on me.

I really like Aldi's Lacura face care line. Inexpensive and really good. I've even gotten a couple of compliments on my skin lately.
I love Avon's Foot Works Therapeutic Cracked Heel Relief Cream, also very inexpensive, but really keeps my feet soft. I even use it as a hand cream in the winter if they get too dry.
Teva's! Love them, so comfy.
Le Chat Savonette de Marseille is our favorite soap, made with olive oil. It's not expensive in the grocery store in France, don't know if you can get it here - we stockpile it when we can. Really keeps me from getting that itchy dry winter skin.
Ummm, I love Tazo Vanilla Chai, and Twinings Pomegranate Delight tea bags, and Dunkin Donuts ground coffee.

That's all that comes to mind!
 
Charlie's Soap...fabulous laundry soap, inexpensive, gets mildew smell out of towels

Nosefrida (the snot sucker)..snucks snot from a baby's nose :)

Nutella...because it's yummy!

Bare Minerals foundation

Too Faced eye shadow primer..love it

Mister Clean Magic Eraser..the bomb diggety

Superga tennis shoes...comfy and stylish

Bum Genius Cloth Diapers...can you tell I have a baby?

Keurig..fast and easy caffeine
 
Ghirardelli chocolate chips. After using them, Tollhouse just doesn't compare. I watch for sales and buy several bags to keep on hand for baking.

Jif peanut butter.
 
I love my Miche purse, Cinnamon Toast Crunch, downey fabric softner, Clear Eyes eye drops and my Jamberry nails.
 
I shop Aldi for a lot of things...and I agree about their facial products :thumbsup2 finally found a moisturizer that I like (even if it is for "mature" skin!)

We love Nutella, too!

I like Rainbow flip flops and Keen sandals and New Balance sneakers.

For the most part - I love a lot of local products and miss them when we travel. Milk from the nearby dairy, locally roasted coffee, local eggs...nothing beats local!!

I've never had a Mac product that served me wrong...

I love Tastefully Simple's Fiesta Dip mix and Simply Salsa...mmmm!

Still searching for the perfect jeans.....

I will never get rid of any of our Plan, Holgate, Lego, or Playmobile toys - they will be kept for the grandkids...

When I CDed we loved Charlie's soap and Fuzzi Bunz... ( sniff sniff :sad1:)

I'm pretty generic, though!!! :rotfl:
