I grew up with $20 walmart blenders, and hated anything that required a blender.

Recently bought a ninja and there is no going back. I'll never use a crappy blender again.

Anything else like that?

Cooking spray is hit and miss with store brands, though. Walmart's store brand is shit, but imho the Safeway store brand is superior in spray coverage, flavor, and pricing.

Ain't no spray that's as good as some plain old olive oil or butter... And you can just buy a refillable spray bottle for your oil if you really prefer spraying.

I've never tried a refillable spray bottle, sounds useful. I totally agree that oil and butter are way better. I only use cooking spray to quickly cook eggs in the morning and use oil and butter for pretty much anything else.
