Whatever is cheapest (or perceived to be best value for money). Must be my Scottish ancestry! I must also be getting old as half the products listed I have never even heard of, let alone bought.

My answer too - an eye for a deal. me. I have no brand loyalty to any company (unless you count the Albion and Sussex CCC). I'm rather staggered by the replies here - NSCers are obviously better off than I am.

I have found over the years that if you buy cheap, you buy twice.
The brands I am loyal to are based mainly on the basis that they will last a very long time.

I don’t have expensive hobbies or habits. I have no wife or children. So tend to save money that way.

The gear I get for work is expensive if you want to be comfortable and have it last.
We are on patrol for 8 hours a night, covering an average of 13 miles in that time.
I’ve tried cheaper stuff, it’s a false economy.

Some stuff I’m happy to spend less on. A lot of my casualclothes are H&M and happy to shop at Primark. I wear chinos and shirts/t shirts mainly.

I like a bargain too though for sure. Not many of those around at the moment though

Question for all you Adidas trainers lovers: do you have really flat feet? No arch/instep?

 

[jcdenton08]

Do they still make it? The real stuff that is? I bought a 2L bottle as I saw it in the supermarket a few months back as I used to love it. Got it home and had a glass, it was revolting!! Then I noticed it was sugar free version. Whatever the sweetner they use instead has made it undrinkable IMO. I tipped it all down the drain.

Just had a look in the local Morrisons and even the Orange tango is now sugar free. Sad times.

I haven’t had it for years - used to drink it from an ice cold can. I’m guessing it’s gone the way of so many others now with a “healthier” recipe. Gutted, really fancy a can now!

One side bar to this thread is the imminent 'off' between Nike & Adidas plimsoll wearers, it's gonna be proper nawtee.

As a convert to Gola Retro Classics (from Puma - so no loyalty) I will be in the stands watching.
