What Do You Not Mind Spending Extra On?

Ask a Question

Whats the one thing which for you, is worth spending a little extra for?

For me:

- Frozen diced onions because I can NOT stop my eyes from streaming when cutting them fresh and it so uncomfortable

- Good toilet roll

- Foil - the cheap stuff isn't as good

There isn't anything that I don't mind spending extra on. That doesn't mean I don't spend extra on things like toilet paper, but I certainly don't like doing it.

I love cheese so I don't mind treating myself occasionally and spending a bit more.

With foil I buy turkey foil reduced after Christmas to use throughout the year as it works out much cheaper if you don't mind storing it.

i don't mind spending extra on Instant Coffee...the wrong coffee/cheap coffee is just not the same as the 'right' coffee!

Nescafe Gold all the way!

If I can I buy it on offer and stock up on what I like. I make homemade pizza and like a certain type of mozzarella on it because it tastes nicer the cheaper ones are watery and not as nice

Holidays, I live for my holidays so I do not mind a bit extra or a lot extra. I will give up most things so I can afford my holidays.

A few things like fresh seasonal vegetables and good quality vitamins/supplements by a trusted brand 😃

Consumer I disagree with you here. Most vitamins/supplements are generic, so it's an absolute waste of money buying from 'posh' brands

TheChimp I buy from trusted brands where I have experienced a difference in quality. 'Posh' doesn't come into the equation. Many but not all are generic and you can tell the difference by how they make you feel. Each to their own 😀

Consumer I take B1, B12, D and multivitamins every day. If I started to buy them from somewhere like Seven Seas, I'd be flat broke 🤣

Milk for me the dairy industry is a lot of work for very little rewards these days I would not mind paying more as long as it was going to the farmers

I'm always looking for value in most things really. I do like Thornton's toffees which I'm willing to pay more for and Costa coffee. I like to have decent headphones as I prefer listening to music via headphones than speakers. A lot of premium stuff I don't actually like for example chocolate. I don't like cosmetic stylised confectionary I prefer just focusing on which flavour I prefer. For Cola I like Pepsi Max Caffeine free and there is no cheaper alternative as good for me.
