This morning as I headed out with the dog on our morning stroll, I realized I was out of poop bags. So, I ran back in and rummaged about and found a pack that we got free at an event, woohoo! There was only one problem, when I went to use the bag, I found out that it was precariously thin. Luckily, I had the small dog, so I avoided a fate worse than death. Which brings me to today’s question…what household items should you not go cheap on?

Why don’t you just use the toilet before you take the dog out?
“when I went to use the bag.” I agree Iska, that’s pretty odd. Maybe they don’t have indoor plumbing. Let’s not judge.
Get rid of the dog. They are an unnecessary expense. They lick their ass and then want to lick your face. They want to hump your leg. They pee on everything and anything. And, these are just some minor points against having a dog.
Train your dog to not do those things. Its easy. Now select an explative, and do it to yourself.
What is an explAtive? Learn to spell if you are going to insult people!
harry,
are you a commie?the devil’s spawn?
maybe the dog should get rid of you?
Why am I a commie because I don’t care for dogs? Not everyone is a dog lover. As a kid, I had so many bad experiences with dogs, including being attacked and bitten, that I do not trust almost any dog. So, to all you dog lovers, enjoy them if that’s what you want. If you condemn me for not agreeing with you, then you must be a Leftist and I don’t care what you think.

Yes, I hate Avid Muslim Dogs.
What did you do to the dog (s) to make it attack and bite you? There’s always a reason behind it. Dogs, in general, don’t attack.
I didn’t grow up with dogs. Dogs were a privilege for small Protestant families that only had, like, 7 kids or fewer. Now we have a dog. I like him fine – especially because he’s really stupid. And he’s small so he doesn’t lay huge craps. They are an unnecessary expense, especially if you want to travel and have to board them.
Don’t gop cheap on anything, just don’t go premium on things that don’t need premium performance and things that will just be thrown away after use.
In the longer term, “cheap” usually isn’t cheap.
Preparation-H, or any other item concerning your asshole, testicles, or vagina.
Why anyone would cheap-out on the most important organ of one’s body is beyond my understanding.
I don’t want to buy anything made in China because it will probably break the first time you use it. If it’s food, it will probably kill you. Japan, Taiwan and Germany do make quality stuff. I was Patriotic and bought a new American made Ford in 1972 (junk) and a new Chevy in 1976 (junk); my wife ragged me bad so I bought a Toyota and a Nissan; one of the few times she was 100% right. Cheap booze like Mogen David Wine and Night Train will destroy your head. I took a couple classes at a Black college because it was close to home (junk). Bought some cheap shirts at Walmart that became junk the first time I washed them. I hate the new lawnmowers that have no variable throttle, richness adjustment etc; and the new washing machines with computer chips to minimize water.
plastic garbage bags–
Dildo’s – just think of the negative consequences. This is even better than Admin’s comment (which was awesome).
Wife.
25th today and I married a hot blonde lawyer.
Couple of years, she’ll take all your money, and kick you to the curb.
What not to skimp on?
Steak, firearms, smoke alarms, ammunition, safes, mattress, generator are the first that come to mind.
Good quality toilet paper. I pick up the cheapo stuff for barter purposes only.
You know you are a prepper if you KNOW how many rolls of toilet paper you have in the house, barn and “alternate” storage.
Admin, your comment says so much it needs no comments. Yo those white neighbors are….priceless.
This is not an advert. You can buy major brand household supplies for less than 50% at Costco.
Sure, you need to buy two / three cans of cleanser – but that stuff doesn’t spoil. The oven cleaner was 1/3 of the grocery store price.
Dutchy, Sam’s TP beats Costco.
Do not go cheap on feminine pads. When she sends you, get the pumpkin spice pads. You’ll live longer.

How are Polish girls like hockey players? They change their pads every 3 periods.
Back in the old days we all made Polish jokes, but now that they’re keeping out the muzzies, I realize that they must be the smart ones. Meanwhile the krauts just re-elected Merkel the Haji.
I used to have a neighbor who was a lawn nazi. He killed all the roses on my property that were next to his because the wind blew the petals in his yard. I had a golden retriever and I trained him to shit on his yard during our lightly walks. I loved that dog.
Don’t go cheap on anything that costs $1k or more.
Wood furniture, not particle board crap which crimps and screws sheer.
Carpeting–higher quality is more durable and stain resistant. ( padding too)
Mattresses, pillows, sheets–a good night’s sleep is critical to physical and mental health…
Colonoscopy–that guy with the calipers and mini-maglight on the end of a clothes hanger is just not gonna do a very good job.
Beer/Ale– drink your piss water if you will, but I’ll take a hearty, amber ale or black and tan any day over some Mexicans pissing in a bottle, adding lime for garnish and to sanitize, and callng it “trendy” mis amigos.
Beef Hotdogs— keep your chicken/turkey/soy/tofu logs off of my grill.
Shit Mitts! Never buy or use the cheap ones. And God forbid you should use grocery bags which are almost always riddled with tiny holes.
I would say to not “go cheap” on the home itself. Buy one well outside any city limits, surrounded by at least 2 acres, and preferably more. Either the dog lives outside, or when let outside, you don’t care where it shits, so long as that place isn’t the porch steps, and that can be trained out of them.
Who really uses doggie poop bags? When I walk my dog, when he goes, it stays where he put it. I’m not touching it.
Edit: And he’s a huge dog, at that.
The last woman who left it in my yard after her dog took a big greasy shit had to clean it off her front door and porch after I returned it from whence it came. She walks her dog down another street now.
Work pants and socks.
Good boots.
Tools.
Tools are the one thing you should not skimp on. Be it a kitchen mixer or a set of open end wrenches. Good tools are worth the money. I suggest pawn shops for old SnapOn, Mac and Craftsman tools as you’ll get them for pennies on the dollar over new.
