    I love Helmans mayo. Can't use any other brand.
    And, I'm obsessed with CK jeans, they fit really good....they have a lot of them at the local thrift stores.
    And, childrens place clothes for Alexis. They withstand her. :)
    And, when I'm wanting a soda, I drink Dt. Mt. Dew ONLY.

    I strictly buy Jordan brand sneakers, I guess that counts as loyalty. Those who live in America, you know. :)

    I'm struggling to think of many. I generally buy Coopers beer because it is locally made and is one of the best beers in the world. I tend to go for Dean Markley Guitar strings and if I ever buy smokes, they're either Pall Mall or drum tobacco with tally-ho papers.

    As far as food is concerned, I'm loyal to local businesses that none of you would have heard of, except maybe Icecream. If I can get Ben & Jerry's then I won't eat anything else.

    I really like Clinique for my skin care. I really like Burt's Bees products as well.

    I dunno. I could use a cell phone with a good light.

    My A/C kicked off and I had to stumble with a crappy samsung looking for the right breaker.

    I like Archer Farms stuff I guess.

    I'm not so hung up about the fact that some people use brands as a fashion accessory to admit that I like some brands because of the goods they make.

    I have like....50 of their shower gels. I'm a rep. :biggrin: So, I thought I was biased and I'd get a lot of flack for saying it. Lol.
    I use pretty much all of their toiletries.

    Love it. It pays my bills because I'm pretty much the only one around my area that sells it hardcore. Lol.
    MK is alright, pricey. I sold it for a bit, but it was too expensive. If it's still the same, you have to keep products in stock and have a certain amount of sales each thingy to be considered 'active'. Plus, you have to dress TOP all the time....it's a lot of work and it didn't really pay off, around here anyway. 'Course, we're po' folk.
    With AVON, I don't have to keep stock of anything unless I want to for on-the-spot sells, I also keep stock because I offer free gifts with a purchase of $20 or more....it rolls in the customer. My customers order what they want and I place the order and deliver it. I've not really had any problems. Everything is priced low and it's great quality.
