Where you absolutely refuse to go the cheap way.

For me its deodorant. Everything else I've found but my chosen brand fails me.

Steaks. But still in a cheapish way. I was thoroughly disappointed in a ribeye I ordered at a restaurant once. Since then I wouldn't order one of those in a restaurant, but I will buy my own. Ribeye is my go to. Sous vide is the cooking method. Cannot be beat.

Television. I absolutely cannot stand TVs with bad picture quality. I look at it for hours every evening so it’s worth it to get something that doesn’t bother me.

Cannabis. Quality typically scales with price.

If you grow your own, you get the best of all worlds. Some of the best cannabis you can obtain is shit you grew yourself.

Truth be told, I haven't actually bought flower for some years for the above reason :) Good homegrown beats dispo by a long shot.

Tools. Life's too short to work with shit. Knifes. Bikes. Shoes. Same reason.

Boots. I bought a pair of good leather boots after trying multiple cheaper brands- 4 years and they're still going strong.

Butter. Quality butter is maybe 2 bucks more than the cheap stuff, and absolutely worth it

We have good butter and cheap ass store brand butter and I alternate depending on how much you will be able to taste the butter in the recipe
