Not just peanut butter, but even peanut butter around here goes for 97 cents no name and like 3.50 or so for the goods. You could also look at this as nike shoes vs whatever shoes, or nearly anything that is name vs no name.
I understand the differences between generic and branded products, I just was shocked at the price difference in Your part of the world when it comes to peanut butter. Obviously you are saving with generic products of any kind especially clothes, because there isn't the price of one the corporate name and two, the marketing overhead.
I wear workboots 5 days a week, I don't really care much for fancy shoes. lol. Back on topic though I'd like to go to a few more concerts before I die, namely Black Sabbath, Megadeth, another Metallica, possibly an Iced Earth or Kreator and definitely a Slayer and even a Venom / Motorhead show would kick ass. I'd also like to have a house, nothing big, nothing extreme, hell, a trailer would be pretty cool, haha. Somewhere out of sight, so I don't have to deal with nosey people. I'd like to get a bit better at guitar and bass, and a fuckload better at drums. I'm not even going to look at vocals. I want a big car. fuck little ricers or any of that tuner shit. Give me a caddy, cutlass or a big buick boat.
you go buy a pair of walmart runners, then buy a pair of nikes for 35$ more, and i guarantee you they will last double what the walmart pair do
I find that nikes fall apart really fast. I've had the same old pair of shoes for years. I would retract that guarentee...
you just have all the fuckin answers dont you...my god how can anyone even argue that a pair of jordans would outlast a pair of shit you buy at walmart...
Oh cool, you really are into name brands. Thats wicked man, I always wondered what kind of fool it took to buy into all the different advertisement hype.
if i had time to do a test on the subject, i would bet nearly any amount of money on that bet before i switched to nike kicks i used to buy 200$+ skate shoes, which RARELY lasted me 6 months i've had the same pair of shocks that i wear workin at the bar for 1.5+ years, which get TRASHED every weekend and all i do is throw em in the washing machine and they are like new as well i can contest to the walmart shit shoes too because back in the day when i couldnt buy my own shit i wore 1-2 pairs of walmart shoes
Just because i mentioned the name jordan? just because i refuse to play any sort of basketball w/o wearing some sort of jordan name brand shoes? Have fun wearing your little "adidas" shoes with 4 or 5 freakin stripes, or a shoe with a backwards nike check, or a pair of reeboks. Have fun.
You do realize that nike and adidas are name brand shoes as well, right? No? HAH, "dude", thats sad. I'll have fun regardless of who's name I have on my shoes. I think its funny that it matters to you. Really, name brands don't mean shit to me. How much do you think those "jordans" would be worth if they didn't have that name on them? I'll give you a hint... the company pays cents to have them made...
So you're saying that skate shoes would only last you 6 months working at a bar? Do you really expect people to believe that whatever you do at a bar is so hard on your shoes that any should would last only half a year? I don't care what shoes you waste your money on. If you feel you need brand names, give'r hell, someone's gotta pay the man.
-Most definitely learn to surf -Learn to play drums (actually about to start this one...) -See Amsterdam, Paris, London, and Berlin, in that order. -Have a place in New Zealand. -Start a famous strain of hemp (even semi-famous would be nice) -Be part of a revolution at least as big as the hippy's were. -Have at least one novel that will sell even after I'm dead. -Make people around me happy EVERY DAY, regardless of how I feel. Oh, and as to the subject of Nike's vs Walmart shoes: I can wear a pair of Nike shoes for about 6 months before they tear up to the point where I can't wear them comfortably. I'm wearing some Walmart brand shoes that I've had for a year and a half, and the soles are JUST starting to come off. I prefer off brands.
where the FUCK would you find 200$ skate shoes, besides nike sb's, which skate like shit and fall apart anyways. the most iv ever paid for a pair of skate shoes (which are the only kind of shoes i wear anyways) was like 120 for a pair of over stuffed gay looking super white dc's. ill stick with my van's and fallens for now. o yea, jordans pwn
Clearly he would only buy the finest skate shoes made by only the most skilled 8 year olds. These 8 year olds already know how to skate and skate better than any pro skater known to man, they have this knowledge so they know how to build the best shoe possible.
Im saying skate shoes only lasted 6 months with Regular wear, ie going to school, walking home etc. while my Shox, which get fucking wet, stepped on, dirty as fuck, and worn by walking on for 8+ hours have held together like nothing workin at the bar
