Most of my "loyalties" are based on solid scientific documented evidence.

Pepsi doesn't mix as well with alcohol, so I drink (bottled) coke. I won't drink coke from a can either.

I only ever shop at Woolworths for groceries, but only because I get 5% off everything there, which is roughly cost-price. Plus I know which stores are dodgy so as to avoid them.

Help yourself to an AD-FREE life

I used to be fiercely loyal to levis jeans. But I am finding it difficult to find black jeans in a pair of jeans that are loose fitting. I used to always wear 501's, but I find they don't fit so well.

Once loose fitting clothes became popular and I started wearing them, I can't go back to tight fitting clothes. I wonder how I ever fit into them in the first place. My balls and penis feel so cramped.

Valrhona *ohm* but only 'cause it's just awesome, and they happen to sell it at my local chocolaterie

Innocent smoothies - own brand just don't cut it anymore, these are too nice

Many others things I buy the same brand all the time just because of convenience, like there only being one supermarket nearby (Sainsbury's). I like to try new thins for most that I can.

I think I have plenty actually but here's some I can now remember:

Coke(!!!!)
Boss or Armani cologne
Sergio Tacchini shampoo and deodorant
.. actually these are the ones I force myself to buy, anything else I can't afford (well not these either but I force myself).
Others are when I can afford them occasionally:

Koff beer when in Finland, plenty of other brands when out of Finland..

Battery energy drink! Screw Red Bull!

Nokia phones.

iPod.

as far as going out to do sport activities, I really like Columbia, and fortunately the brand of Portland has given me few items that I now have.

For clothing purposes in general, I don't follow any brand per se, but I would be tempted to go to bigger brand stores if I had the choice.

Also I really liked the calvin kleins One series.. the shampoo and the deodorant. I haven't seen it in Finland in YEARS. I always check out cK:s side for the One but I never find it.

Is it still around?

I'm sorry... but I don't have enough money to waste on expensive SOFT DRINKS.

Store brands are usually not that much worse, because let's face it, we're talking sugar water here.
