I often hear, “You should never cheap out on a good office chair, shoes, underpants, backpack etc…” but what are some items that you would feel OK to cheap out on?

This can by anything from items such as: expensive clothing brands to general groceries.

    If you can’t tell the difference between a super cheap keyboard and a well built one, fair enough.

    If you like one of the things you use for a considerable portion of the day to feel nice to use and last more than two years, spend more. I spent an absurd amount on a keyboard about a year ago (like a week’s pay kind of absurd) and I haven’t regretted it for a second.

      I have tried 3 different mechanical keyboards, two of them in the three digits. I went back to rubber dome because I couldn’t care less about cherry switches.
