Buy cheap, buy twice?

My mother's mantra was 'You get what you pay for' and I generally find that she was right - damn her!

The only thing on which i would disagree with her is face creams etc. As has been mentioned on Gn before, Aldi's versions of those are good!

This was one of my mother's mantras and I suspect she may have had a point. I decided a month or so ago that I would "economise" on some of my toiletries- so I bought £2 shower gel instead of my fav Liz Earle. It has lasted only 2 weeks and is like better scented wahing up liquid- so, a complete waste of money. I really eanted a particular pair of boots last autumn but thought them too expensive so I bought a cheaper pair, but have never been satisfied with them. Am I alone?
