Autistic people who need multiple weeks of scientific research into a new product to convince themselves to try it present!
Of course were not immune to all advertisement, especially others suggesting/recommending a product but everything i buy are the same products/brands i did 15 years ago. Or a researched alternative. Trying something new is the opposite of safe.
For what it's worth, if you've not switched something fundamental to daily life in 10+ years, male time to investigate of new alternatives exist that aren't just switching from Brand A to Brand B.
A friend told me about detergent sheets, and it to some trial and error, but I found one that is awesome. Never even knew the things existed until a couple years ago.
It’s fun mixed with ADD.
Hyper research
Pause, put in to-do pile
…Repeat
Bonus if it’s something I don’t actually need the product immediately. Like, if you want to talk about every single mirrorless camera on the market and what will come out within a year, with reasonably probability, well. It’s on the top of my head now. And it’s definitely not researched at cost of other stuff I need to do, nope.
I hate buying anything for this reason. Always end up down some rabbit hole researching the product I am looking at, comparing it to other similar things, looking up peoples experiences with each one. Searching for information on it is always such a pain, the results on search engines are just places that have a financial interest in selling it to you.
For some reason my original comment showed up 3 times for me, so deleted it and then it showed just 1 deleted post... So here I am reposting as a reply to my originally deleted post.
I just buy whatever is cheapest. I have no brand loyalty or familiarity.
I’m with webghost. I have brand loyalty and brand hatred lists. Marketing people might generalize to oh you don’t know yourself, but there are lines I do not cross. Verizon is dead to me for example. I don’t care if no other providers are available I will never give them money again.
