When people ask which breed my cats are, I respond with the truth: Purebred neighborhood conglomerate. They're both healthy, happy, and awesome.
Just make sure you don't cheap out in their medical care - sterilization and any necessary vaccinations.

Toothbrush. Anything you'll use comfortably will do the job.
Same goes for toothpaste, apparently. I asked my dentist once, and according to her the type or brand doesn't matter that much as long as it has fluoride in it.

Mascara. There are some $6 mascaras that are way better than the $25 ones.

If you're not a contractor, power tools. Buy the harbor freight version first when you need it. If you end up using it enough to break it, then you get a quality one.
Seconded. This has been my strategy for accumulating personal tools.
Proper/professional grade stuff I have:
- Circle saw
- Drill
- Screwdrivers of various sizes, especially PH2
- 13mm ratchet spanner
The rest is of a lot more dubious quality.
I have never broken a 10 mm wrench, but I have lost a few. So I bought a ten pack on Amazon.

Possibly an unpopular opinion among parents, but: Diapers. I've noticed no negative effect on my kids when going offbrand.
I remember the expensive ones, Pampers, being way worse, the pee is so absorbed the kid doesn't feel it but is still in it and get irritated skin, and poo leaked way more easily.
Yeah, that's the only real difference I've noticed: The fit. On my oldest kid, libro fit best. The rest were offbrand. I think it's mostly down to each individual kid and not so much the brand.
