Society & Culture Brand Alliances

[TheSituation23]

what brands do you live by religiously ?

 

[SpaceCow]

I do kinda consider myself a Sony fanboy to some extent - You pay a premium in most cases but quality is assured.

 

[raskolnikov]

I've had five cars, all Fords. Each one of them has been a great car. I wouldn't consider anything else.

The only tv I have owned that has died before being dispensed with was a sony. I go out of my to avoid their overpriced junk.

 

[TheStinger]

My last 5 pairs of sneakers/basketball shoes have all been Converse. They last me forever. Not going with anyone else for a while.

Have two Sony LCDs (one might be an LED, not sure) and they make brilliant TVs. Excellent quality at an affordable price - came with a free PS3 so all the better.

For me, anything LG gets avoided like the plague after one too many crap experiences. Curse their well advertised crap.

 

[grizzlym]

Apple. Cannondale. Crumpler. Coopers.

 

[blues4flag]

Carlton.

 

[SugarShane]

Clothing/shoes: DC, Quiksilver.
Cars: Mitsubishi.
Drink: Gatorade, Coke.
Used to be Nokia with phones, had about 6 Nokias before i got a Samsung Galaxy S2 this time.
Not really sure alliance is the word either, i think loyalty is more what you're after.

Used to be Nokia with phones, had about 6 Nokias before i got a Samsung

It was amazing the amount of people that followed Nokia back in the day. Some still do now. Wouldn't even look at another phone.

 

[Poseidon]

Apple fanboy.
Only buy Adidas shoes.

 

[Doctor Feel]

Electronics: Samsung, Asus, Nvidia
Clothes/Shoes: Nike, Globes
Cars: Mazda
Drink: Coke

 

[frantelle]

ASIC runners

 

[Pendles_Pies]

adidas runners, especially climacool rides

 

[BarneyBent]

Mother/Relentless (while I'm in the UK).

Other than that, not much really. I have both a Mac and a PC, I prefer Coke to Pepsi but Solo to Lift, clothes are much of a muchness, I have a thing for Fender guitars but not to the point of rejecting other makes, I've only had one car (a Toyota), etc.

Oh, Colgate toothpaste (I doubt I'm the only one though) and Kleenex Cottonelle toilet-paper.

 

[Starlin Castro]

Apple and Nike, and Aldi party pies - the best of the supermarket home brand party pies.

 

[dbcrow]

Not so much of a brand, but a store - Foodland in South Australia.

Don't go near anything associated with Coles or Woolworths.

 

[THRILLHO]

Don't think I have any real brand loyalty. There's some brands I like, but I wouldn't stick with them exclusively.

I use, and love, Head racquets, but I'm keen to check out Tecnifibre. The fact that you can buy two of them online for the same price as a Head offline is appealing.

Apple Macs for laptops, but definitely not for a desktop and iPhone is just another phone in the mix for me.

I drive a Ford, all my family owns Fords, but I'm not sure that's a loyalty thing. They're just good cars. Wouldn't rule out other brands.

 

[dbcrow]

Storm bowling balls.

 

[HolyRioli]

Undies: Bonds
Can't go wrong.

Hockey Stick: Gryphon.
Have been using them since I was a kid, and won't change that.


They would be my main two

 

[SugarShane]

Cricket equipment: Kookaburra. Everything is Kookaburra and has been ever since i started.
Shopping: Always Woolies, never Coles.
Car audio: Pioneer

 

[Daytripper]

Cordial : Cottee's
Bread : Bakers Delight

 

[THRILLHO]

Shopping: Always Woolies, never Coles.

I'm simply curious: why?

 

[Brad Goodman]

You're limiting yourself if you stick to one brand religiously. If there is a better alternative out there how would you know?

I only ever had Nokias, then one broke and a friend lent me an HTC for the remainder of my contract. I now have a Samsung Galaxy S2 (great phone), but there's every chance I'll go for an iPhone next time.
