- Shows you're not swayed by marketing
- Mature financial decision without sacrificing quality
- That bag vs box savings adds up
Disagree
- Name brands genuinely taste better sometimes
- Life's too short for disappointing cereal
- Supporting brands you grew up with
- The box presentation matters at breakfast
