What do you refuse to get generic versions of?

Liqueurs, because usually generics don't exist

And Ziploc bags. The quality is worth the extra dollar over the store brand. I might start doing the same for trash bags as well

The dollar stores here sell offbrand Ziploc bags but, like, reusable. They are amazing.

They are, and we still have some in circulation, but these ones are designed for it. They have rounded corners that won't wear or hide dirt, and they're made out of pretty thick, rubbery plastic sheets.

There are dozens of vodkas and gins, fake and slightly different whiskeys, rum and so on but I totally agree on buying the brands (not just the top 1 or 2)

Liqueurs, not liquors. I don't buy big name brand liquor (unless you count Plantation rum, or stuff that happens to be owned by Campari).
