How important is being branded?

I am fascinated with how some people are all about brands. Any product, service etc is only recognised when it has a brand name attached. You either have this type of clothing, that type of shoe, do your hair at that salon and your lip gloss drips with brand imprints all over the packaging.

In most cases you will have to break the poor piggy bank to make sure you get your hands on that branded item.

Brand name aside, does the product serve a real purpose i.e. adds to your health, makes you look and / or feel better and does not make you break into the bank?

Anyone is entitled to good living but half the time people thrive on the peception that the brand is good quality. Most labels that I have seen do not justify the pricing. After all is said and done I have seen the same style item in both low end and high end stores say "made in China."

If an item or service does not serve my needs those shouldn't brand houses need to pay me for even wearing them?
