Brand Loyalty

It's a shame that Colgate went all shrinkflation on us. It taught me to avoid brand loyalty.

Diazepam - Valium

Alprazolam - Xanax

Chlordiazepoxide - Librium

Kellogg's corn flakes. Any other sort just don't taste right like the cheap flakes they put out in a hotel for their complimentary breakfast.

That's the only one, I'm not that particular but it'll come down to price so own brand anything for most part.

What, nobody said boards.ie ?

* Mod needed in aisle 3...

I tried an off brand Corn flakes once I found my masturbatory activity significantly increased.

Why do we, crucify ourselves, every day?

I’m not loyal to any brands.

just there are brands that I like / prefer…

what I want from a brand is quality and value for money.

I spent about 450 euros on a Junk De Luxe winter coat about 12 years ago…. I wouldn’t hesitate to spend money on any of their stuff because the coat is so well made, incredibly warm, it’s a great fit, will last a lifetime… bought T-shirts, jumpers and underwear and never an issue, good value to ok value. But always incredibly well made, great fit and stylish but not garish or ostentatious and bonus minimal to zero visible branding which these days is great and rare where lots of even premium brands want you waking around looking like a human advertisement.

In Ireland has traditionally been very brand loyal and noticeably so by international companies. Of all the Blockbusters location Ireland was the only country to go by a different name

Debates about the likes of King versus Tayto, Murphy's Versus Guinness, Barry's versus Lyon's etc... are not common in other countries

Loyalty or tried, tested & trusted?

Tried, tested & trusted - Quiksilver, ION, Malden Salt and Apple.

Who told you that???? Local food delicacy battles are thoroughly and 100% international! From wines, confectionaries, teas and beers.

Food types yes but not brands. Living in other countries told me that. I certainly wouldn't put Apple on that list given I was around when they started and how many failures and faulty products they have brought to the market. ION originally were very cheap poor quality

Barry's tea. Shots fired.

Brands exist all over the world, brand loyalties and brand battles exist all over the world, it's certainly not a unique Irish thing, try telling a certain cider drinker in Normandy to change brand to another one and you'll have a long education as to why one is better than the other, tell an Ozzy penguins are better than Tim Tams etc.... It goes on.

Apple tops it for the creative work I do, been using them since they came out, nothing comes near them I'm afraid, that's why they're the standard in my industry. Regarding ION, as already stated, tried - tested - trusted. Nothing beats trying something, reading about them is interesting and all that...
