We are all looking for ways to save money and get great deals. One way to achieve this is by considering store-brand products that rival in quality their name-brand counterparts.

Store brands often offer a lower-cost alternative.

From grocery staples like cereal, peanut butter, and yogurt to household items such as laundry detergent and air fresheners, there are many opportunities for savvy shoppers who want the best deals possible.

Some examples of Store Brands and their Generic Counterpart:

  • Cheerios vs. Store Brand Cereal – Cheerios is an iconic cereal that has been around since 1941 and continues to be popular today, while many store brands offer very similar varieties at a lower cost.
  • Coca-Cola vs. Store Brand Soda – Coca-Cola is one of the oldest and most recognizable soft drinks in the world with its unique flavor profile. Many stores offer soda options that come close to matching Coke’s taste for less money.
  • Kleenex vs. Store Brand Facial Tissues – Kleenex tissues have become synonymous with facial tissue due to their consistently high quality over many years. However, there are plenty of good quality store-brand facial tissues available as well, usually at a much lower cost than Kleenex.
  • Heinz Ketchup vs. Store Brand Ketchup – Heinz ketchup is arguably the king of condiments. However, other companies make comparable versions at a fraction of the price; these alternatives may not provide exactly the same sweet tomato taste as Heinz but are still quite tasty!
