I often hear, "You should never cheap out on a good office chair, shoes, underpants, backpack etc.." but what are some items that you would feel OK to cheap out on?

This can by anything from items such as: expensive clothing brands to general groceries.

I had no idea one could buy powdered ibuprofen. What's the advantage? Advil's marketing suggests you need special technology to deliver the medicine to the correct point in your digestive system.

    Yeah, it's actually more mild than the pill form, and acts SO much faster, most times you can feel the headache just fade away.

    I used to pop aspirin and Excedrin for migraines but found out (the hard way) it's no bueno for your stomach, so I have to use these sparingly. We also have 1g Acetaminophen (Tylenol) horse size pills, but it doesn't do anything/help the pain for me anymore.
