I don't even buy name brand food, or clothes for the most part unless they are what I'm looking for, but Not for the person/name behind them. lol
I agree 100%! I buy what I want/need/can afford after exploring the options and reading multiple reviews...at least for the high end items. But I don't buy name brand if there is a store brand out there that is comparable.
I don't have anything against Marie Osmond, but I can't quite wrap my head around looking to her as a sewing/quilting expert. Wouldn't have a lot of impact on me, now Kaye has a rep as that type of expert, her I would take advice from, Marie...hmmm...nah! :wink:
