Most people don't realize that they spend hundreds or even thousands of 
dollars a year buying name brand products in the grocery store. There is 
nothing in the grocery store that is rocket science. Many of the less 
advertised brands, generic or store brands are just as good or better as 
the name brands. You are paying for the brainwashing that many name brand 
products put in their advertising campaigns. It is not difficult to make 
shampoos, conditioners, cleaning products and all those other products
that 
can be found in your local grocery or department store. Why are you paying

4+ dollars for baby shampoo when you can buy the store brand or less 
advertised brand for half the money? Do you like wasting money? If the
name 
brand products are better why would companies be spending billions of 
dollars in advertising? The answer is that they are not better. They are 
trying to convince you that the high price they are charging is some how 
justified by a better product. Some companies will charge an extra large 
amount for a product trying to imply if it has a high price it is better. 
Studies have shown that many times the most expensive product is the worst

product or has no better performance than most of the median priced 
products. Even over the counter drugs like aspirin can be bought for half 
the price of the named brands. This is a product that has been around for 
decades. The generic companies are under the same FDA regulations as the 
name brand. Save a lot of money and don't buy the over priced name brands.
