DH does the same for me. I have specific brands and that's that.
Sometimes that ends up in a funny situation. Once 5 Roses flour was on
sale. DH took my grocery list and seeing the *5* thought I wanted 5
bags of *roses* flour not *5 Roses* flour. He brought home 5 - 10 kg
bags of 5. Let me tell you it sure took awhile to use up that flour
since even then I used very little white flour!
