Things I Won't Scrimp On

This thread came up on reddit today asking about things people won't scrimp on which got me thinking about things I would rather pay a higher price for than suffer through cheaper alternatives.  My list includes...

• Toilet paper (I LOVE the Kirkland brand at Costco)
• Tampons (they have these at the $1 store but I can't even imagine the quality--or lack thereof--so it is OB all the way)
• Chocolate (high quality only--Lindt, Milka, Godiva--not Hersheys or other cheap brands!)
• Shoes (Brooks, Keen, Merrell, etc. I'd much rather pay more for better quality than buy multiple cheap pairs)
• Electronics like cell phones, computers, and tablets (I buy the highest quality Android/Windows products then keep them for years)
• Food (I like real food--good butter, real maple syrup, real vanilla, etc.  No fake stuff for us thank you very much)
• Jewelry (real 14k-24k gold none of that fake stuff that turns your skin green!)
• Cars (we buy highly rated cars like Hondas then drive them until they die)
• Sheets (1000 thread count soft cotton sheets are way better than sandpaper-ish low thread count sheets since we spend a third of our lives on them)

That's an example of the things that I feel are important.  Generally I'll opt for paying more for quality over things of lesser quality that I won't want to use or that will annoy me to death if I use them.
