Lots of things. We use a lot of store brand grocery items, but there are some we've tried and just didn't like, or didn't work as well. We won't buy things just because they are cheaper.

For about 10 years, I mowed my own lawn, but I finally gave in and hired a pro a few years ago. I didn't like doing it. I didn't do a very good job, and the lawn always looked lousy. So I'm spending more now, but it's worth it.

I would turn the heat down more, but my wife won't go for it.

We used to stay at really cheap motels when we traveled, but we got tired of low class, noisy, often drunk patrons. Now we stay at nicer places but the rooms are clean, the beds are comfortable and the halls are quiet. It's not much of a vacation if we're kept up all night by people partying and running through the halls.

We could live on junk food and the $.99 menu at McDonald's, but our health is far more important than that.
