Expanded Line of Store Products

Lately, I’ve noticed that many stores are carrying more and more store brands. Store brands are popping up on shelves that I haven’t seen them on before now.  Have you noticed that?

I am starting to realize that some of the store brands, in my opinion, even taste better than the original. I love the Great Value Twist and Shout Cookies. They are really yummy. My boys eat the Great Value Graham Crackers almost daily. I think it’s nice that I can save money by buying store brands of toilet paper, diapers, toddler snacks, bread, juice, you name it.

Occasionally, I will find a product that is subpar, such as the Great Value Gallon Storage Bags I recently bought. I think they need some improvement as each one I tried to use tore when I opened it. The good thing is, I am sure they will improve them as soon as they realize this is an issue. Feedback is key to getting quality products from companies.

I have noticed that some of the store brands have started jazzing up their packaging to make the items more noticeable on the shelf. I love the new clean design of some of these brands.

Do you have a favorite store brand? I’d love to hear how you think it compares to name brand products.
