I saw this post and wanted to ask the opposite. What are some items that really aren’t worth paying the expensive version for? Preferably more extreme or unexpected examples.

Pet toys
Largely have to disagree with you there. The more expensive toys usually last a lot longer with my dogs.
I can just crinkle up some paper for my cats.
My cats always loved the cheapest toys, like those little twisty ties that come with trash bags, but my dogs never did.
They still make those sort of trash bags? I’ve never not bought the draw string ones
If you buy small trash bags, such as for a bathroom trash can, you’re more likely to get them.
That makes sense I’ve always just used grocery bags for those
Or give them a laser dot to chase
I agree, I’ve got a large dog and he can demolish cheap toys within hours but the good quality ones will last months
What I meant was not cheap toys as an alternative, but random crap like socks or a twig are usually more exciting for my golden retriever instead of some great toys which last a few mins of excitement and then he’s done
This is mainly true for cats.
Expensive toy = zero interest
The box the expensive toy came in = hours of fun.
cheap rabbit toys use A LOT of glue, which is obviously not good for any animal.
Yeah I’d argue this is probably true for bigger pets but the LD50 of stuff on your 2lb guinea pig is hit shockingly fast. Gotta watch out for the small, furry comrades
