I will have to personally disagree with this one. It might just be personal taste or it could be the fact that we live on a different continent.
But I was a very heavy user of the cheap brands owned by the stores themselves. But ever since my financial situation improved dramatically, I've gone the other way. Now that I can afford to pay an extra euro for a better product, I do so very often. I still very much like to get value for my money even when grocery shopping but I've noticed that there is usually quite a difference in the quality of the product, whether we are talking about soap, toothpaste, snacks, juice or any other similar thing.
Everyone (myself included) considers me to be a cheap person and I still look at the exact price of every single item I buy. But more often than not I simply decide that the improvement in quality is worth the increased price, especially when we are talking about lower cost items.
