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.

    I thought the same with a cheap mechanical I bought, then I tried to go back to my old, still usable keyboard after some days and for some reason it doesn’t feel so usable anymore.

      I agree that going from a barely usable to a cheap mechanical is a huge jump, but the differences between mechanical and other mechanical isn’t as big as ppl in the hobby make it seem. I couldn’t have gotten a very similar experience for 70% less.
