Are there any brands that you you consistently buy for a product when you need them? Any particular reason why? For me?

Pepsi: When I am looking for a "pop/soda always go Pepsi(regular kind). Why? I'm not sure?

Jif Peanut Butter:,Growing up we were crazy poor. Butter and jelly on Wonder Bread with an Apple was what we ate for lunch in school for years. When My parents had a few extra dollars, we had Creamy Jig instead. It's the only Peanut butter I'll eat.

Nike: Building off the Jif paragraph, my parents always got us hand me down shoes or maybe Pay less. I always wanted a pair of Nike's(after I got over the Reebok pump shoes lol). It's silly but they were a symbol that you are doing "good" money wise. Once I could afford them myself I got a pair, and will still buy Nike products if they are available. I know it's silly and I don't go full track suit, but subconsciously or otherwise, it makes me feel like I am doing good for myself financially to wear their products.
 
Most of the time it's not a case of loyalty, just continual preference.

Maybe PlayStation? I have had 1,2,3,4. No Xboxes.

From the Walkman to minidisc, PS to PS4, TVs, Amp, speakers, head units and now phones.

Usually it's just a good standard of quality. Phones were shit a few years back but they've sorted that now thank goodness.
 
YAMMA
XFL
WHA
Weyland-Yutani
 
Too many to list. Top one's are Jeep, Coke, Samsung, Dove, Microsoft & Inn N Out.
 
Imperial leather soap

Mai ploy sweet chilli sauce

Bic lighters
 
Samsung for basically every device in my house. No Apple products are allowed not for me the wife or the kids.
 
Apple, Sony PlayStation, Columbia, Quiksilver, Sketchers, Vornado, Stanley, Made in USA
 
Used to but they closed shop or got bought out and never felt the same quality wise.
 
Cetaphil is the goat mosturizer for me. I cant go back.
Other than that i’m flexible in most areas. I dont think i’ll use another phone than iphone in a long while though
 
The only examples I can think of are just because of a superior product, not really band loyalty. If I find a better product, I'll buy that.
 
Tough to say as I usually don't go by brand but product.
Always have been loyal to Nintendo and they've never let me down, some people didn't care for the Wii and WiiU but I love both. Some game series' have always been worth my time like Saints Row, Dead Rising (hell I enjoy 3 and 4), and Just Cause, but if an entry sucks I will skip it. I'm the same way with bands, but some bands have never failed me like Interpol, Wild Nothing, Creedence, Layne Staley Alice in Chains, Faith No More, or Deftones.
There are a/v manufacturers that have never let me down like Extron with their scalers and signal amps, LAT International a/v cables (now defunct due to the founder becoming ill, but well worth tracking down), etc.
Peter Pan peanut butter is probably the best among the well known brands that I can recall. There's another one that's an organic brand that has a bear on it that's also quite good and seems to be readily available.
I try to support local brands when I can.
HT Omega makes my favorite sound cards. I've been pretty loyal to AMD/ATI gpu's but they have recently made it really hard to use analog output even on their cards that support it natively as Catalyst 17.1.1 was the last to have VGA controls. Seeing as one of my PC's is hooked up to two hd crt's, this is an issue.
Salsas, I'll try out all different brands as long as they are hot or at least have a garlic salsa, but readily available ones that I enjoy are Mrs. Renfros (usually their Habanero, Ghost Pepper or green Jalepeno), Green Mountain Gringo (hot), Imus' brand (hot), and Brad's Organic (usually Hot or Garlic). I never really stray into Old El Paso, Chi Chi's, Pace, Ortega, Taco Bell, or other big brands as they are usually tomato pastey and even their hot salsas taste medium or mild, or in the case of Chi Chi's have a lot of large tomato chunks and taste medium or mild even when labelled as hot.
