Most of my drugs are generic, but a couple I use just aren't available in generic. The rest of my stuff is a bit of a mix. I like my skippy peanut butter, generic just doesn't work. Martinelli's is just the best apple juice out there bar none. Lot of the staples I use store brand, butter, beans, frozen veggies are usually trader joes.
For soda I usually drink mexican cokes, so bit of a snob there. I keep shasta lemon-lime and club soda for mixers. Deli meats and cheeses are whatever I can get at costco.
If I am cooking, it really depends on what I am cooking. When I make mac and cheese from scratch it's pretty top shelf. I like the premium thick noodles and usually stick to tillamook cheddar. If I am cooking at work, I usually just get the cheapest ingredients I can, but the same dish at home I'll use higher end stuff.
Stater Bros. has a really good bulk bacon and it's far cheaper than just about anything else you find. I usually get it for 2.50-3 bucks a pound. Kroger private selection is what I usually get for ice cream.
I shop sales on booze, so I tend to stick with better brands. I don't drink much, but when I do I stick to the (relatively) good stuff.
