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.
So, don't trust Dollar General steaks then?
Anything load bearing. Miss me with cheap jack stands when I'm working on my car.
Was changing a flat with the kit in my car, the scissor jack it came with was so improperly rated for the load that the bolt bent and the whole thing fell apart, sending the rotor straight into some dirt. Luckily enough nothing got damaged, but it still took 30 minutes to get that poor thing off the ground with a real jack and bricks. It was such a low rider that we had to start from the back and creep forward.
Never using a scissor jack ever again, and I've heard enough horror stories from mechanics about not using a jack stand that I will exclusively be using them if the things off the ground for any amount of time.
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.
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
I miss the real Amish butter that I used to be able to get when I lived in Virginia.
Boots. I bought a pair of good leather boots after trying multiple cheaper brands- 4 years and they're still going strong.
Bleach for the toilet. I found a cheap one is not as thick and viscous as brand name a bit more expensive. The brand one lasts a bit longer and does a better job.
What brand?
