Great minds think alike! My mom came to L-O-V-E Landsā End back when they first started - in the 80ās sometime, and they didnāt change too much - although I do think they are different since Sears bought them out⦠and itās great that they are Wisconsin based.
Other brand names I Stand Behind:
Lysol
Kleenix (another Wisconsin product - we donāt have facial tissues around here - itās all Klennix.).
Reef flip-flops
Tide
Blue Plate mayo (I have my mom ship it to me b/c itās not sold here!)
Mary Kay
Old Navy blue jeans
Bath and Body Works Wallflower plug-in things
Knit Picks
Bacardi rum :clink:
Of course, not a conclusive list, but a good start!
Hmmm the only things that I really have to have:
Ponds cold cream w/cucumber extract
Ivory dishwashing liquid
Cascade dishwasher detergent
Downy fabric softner
Geez, seems like I have a cleaning fetish (No, not really)
Oooh, I forgot my knitpicks options set. I adore it. I just wished they made a 16 inch cables. I had to have a pair for a baby hat and ended up having to run all over town and finally found a shop and paid $15 for a pair of the darn things.

Iām not much of a brand name shopper. I do like the following products though:
Campbellās Cream of Mushroom Soup
Crocs (about the only shoe I buy)
Puffs when I have a cold and the kind with the potion
Fruictis facial cleanser
Olay Reginerest face cream with SPF
Pampered Chef stoneware
KP Options
Sanderson Farms Chicken
Hellmanās/Best Foods mayo
Other than that Iām not really dedicated. If you can prove that a product is worth the price (or the savings) then Iāll try it. I buy so much store brand food that I look like a promote their products. But when it comes to tomato sauce, rice, beans, sugar and pasta, itās all the same to me.
Iāve been on a face-care kick lately and Iāve found some good stuff
Noxema(when your skin is oily)
Aveeno foaming cleanser (when your skin is dry. Itās also an amazing makeup remover)
Almay touch pad foundation and blush (well, anything Almay is good in my book right now)
