The market's competitive environment is always ready, so you should be as well.Not only should new products and brands be considered, but so should old brands.

I used to buy flour from a well-known brand. One day, the flour from that brand was unavailable, but flour from another brand was available, which was nearly 20% cheaper in the same quantity. I had some doubts about it, but it was also an old brand, so I bought it thinking that its price must have been decreased due to competition. Later on, when checking the quality of both, I found no significant difference. This gave me an alternate. (Today, both brands are nearly the same price; however, I am open to new alternatives.)

Since the pandemic, I need to cut down the budget for food. I tried to find some cheaper brands of certain condiments and the like, which they had proved their good qualities with no differences from the old brands being used by the family in years. Thus, there is nothing wrong to try other brands for having other options.

Yeah, many old companies were shut down or increased price, and new emerged, so many people changed brand. More are coming.

I buy less popular Brands if my favorite brand product is not available

[ptrikha21]

Rin and Surf Excel are more advertised brands in Detergents. However, I have tried a few others which have proved good.
Digestives from Sunfeast and Britannia are more popular and advertised.
Yet I tried from a brand Dukes and that too was good.
Similar observations in case of Juices and even milk.
So yes, one can always try out alternate brands.

There are brands that are not popular but are as effective as the popular ones

I do this a lot when I don't have money for the brand I love i go for the most alternative means. which still serve a purpose

True though, like there is this oraimo power bank i saw, 50,000mah it was around 37,000 in my local currency. But i saw another brand selling that same 50,000mah power bank for 15,000 in my local currency. But right now the issue is will this new brand be as strong as oraimo? I have used oraimo before and i can say their power banks are one of the best out there.

There are some no-name brands that have even more quality than well know brands. Many brands that are not known, bet on the good quality of their products to attract consumers, we just need to be aware and read the food labels, we can save a lot of money and have good quality products.

That's called business most of the well known brands it's not that they have quality products but they did a good job in the promotion and advertising of the brand. I often see that in my country.

That's right I agree with you. I also usually buy repackaged groceries, the same brand but the repackaged price is much cheaper than the price of packaged groceries from the factory. Even though it's the same brand.

That is why' I chose Xiaomi phones that give me iphone standard with half the price of an iphone.
