2) Toilet Paper

As a fact of life you will consistently need to buy toilet paper. Therefore, it at first sounds reasonable to go for the cheaper option of generic brands. However, because you will use it so often, it will generally be a better idea to go for quality over price. Generic toilet paper generally has a lower number of fibers, meaning that it is less absorbent and may be more susceptible to tearing and falling apart. Because of this, you will end up using more of it, meaning you will have to buy more than you would with the better quality brands. Additionally, certain generics may irritate your skin, and prolonged use would therefore be uncomfortable. Something else to consider is that it is usually not that difficult to find a decent price on good quality toilet paper either through coupons and sales or by buying it in large packs at a wholesale store.
