Here’s what our Hip team said they pay full price for…

“I feel like I pay full price for everything.  😂 Obviously, if something I use goes on sale, I’ll be sure to stock up, but I find that most of my toxic-free lifestyle choices rarely go on sale, and I’m not willing to compromise and buy products that don’t align with me anymore. Full price life, on a budget, I guess? lol” – Sara

“These items I will repurchase at full cost no matter what the price is —

Most things I feel like I repurchase or buy often either go on sale often, or have a comparable item. If I run out of any of my full price favorites, I’m restocking regardless before the next sale lol. – Monica

“Plants at my local flower nursery. In fact, sometimes I don’t even look at the price because I get too caught up in how stunning each plant is after the next! I’ve recently taken up gardening and I’m realizing it’s not a cheap hobby lol  😂 But it’s brought me so much joy, so I would say the return on investment is priceless.” – Emily

    Allergy friendly food favorites- I always want to have good choices on hand for our family members that have to be extra careful what they eat and vitamins/supplements that get results are worth the investment to keep us healthy.

  33. Marceia Hamilton

    I don’t want to pay full price for anything if I can get a deal on it but if I had to I would pay full price for a fun day out with the family.

    There isn’t much I am not always trying to find deals for but higher quality food for my pets; I learned that the hard way- no savings when they have to eat twice as much and use at least twice as much kitty litter. And good farmer’s market fruit and my favorite baker’s rugelach!
