The other day, on NPR, someone was talking about the prevalence of online reporting. All the blogs, the chat rooms, the self-made authorities seem to be trumping the respected experts, at least sometimes. Joe Citizen wants to know what his peers think, not what the reporter at the New York Times has to say.

I suppose I agree, all things considered. I like being able to access loads of information–true or untrue–and discern what I want to believe. I also think this very notion is what makes PF blogs successful. Few of the PF-ers are financial professionals, at least not the ones I love to read. We’re regular, everyday people making regular, everyday salaries and trying to stretch/savor/spend our dollars however we can.

So. Here’s where I’m going with this. I’ve found there are certain products in my life that I love to spend money on. I will actually choose to pay full price, when necessary, because these items are so reliable and trustworthy in my book. I want to tell you about them.

I’m getting no compensation for these posts, I promise. I just want to tell you that I wish I’d always known how great these things are, and I think you should try them.

Also, ( here’s the time for a little unabashed begging) I’d love to know what products you love. If you “sell” me, I’ll give your product a try.

First post in this series? The all-time, unbeatable, driest, surest deodorant out there. Really.
