Steaks. But still in a cheapish way. I was thoroughly disappointed in a ribeye I ordered at a restaurant once. Since then I wouldn't order one of those in a restaurant, but I will buy my own. Ribeye is my go to. Sous vide is the cooking method. Cannot be beat.
So, don't trust Dollar General steaks then?
Television. I absolutely cannot stand TVs with bad picture quality. I look at it for hours every evening so it’s worth it to get something that doesn’t bother me.
I bought a cheap TCL TV for a monitor for our security cameras. I have never heard of a TV that you need to select an input every time you turn it on. It's quite annoying.
This but for monitors, I bought the drawing tablet I have because I cannot stand color shifting and bad color rep. Same with my monitors, if the colors are so off that one is visibly more blue than the other I get so annoyed I dont use it.
Luckily enough laptops tend to have pretty color-accurate screens thanks to everyone trying to copy apple (i still miss removeable batteries)

Anything load bearing. Miss me with cheap jack stands when I'm working on my car.
Was changing a flat with the kit in my car, the scissor jack it came with was so improperly rated for the load that the bolt bent and the whole thing fell apart, sending the rotor straight into some dirt. Luckily enough nothing got damaged, but it still took 30 minutes to get that poor thing off the ground with a real jack and bricks. It was such a low rider that we had to start from the back and creep forward.
Never using a scissor jack ever again, and I've heard enough horror stories from mechanics about not using a jack stand that I will exclusively be using them if the things off the ground for any amount of time.
Butter. Quality butter is maybe 2 bucks more than the cheap stuff, and absolutely worth it
We have good butter and cheap ass store brand butter and I alternate depending on how much you will be able to taste the butter in the recipe

Boots. I bought a pair of good leather boots after trying multiple cheaper brands- 4 years and they're still going strong.
