Companies You Have Loyalty To?

My list:

Love

Sony - I have a PS1, PS2, PS3, MP3 Walkman, Earbuds, Headphones, and I'm typing this on my Sony Vaio laptop. I never had an issue with a Sony product breaking down.

Capcom - When I see their logo, chances are I'm going to love their video game. It would be cool if they still made games for Disney ( I use to play Rescue Rangers and Ducktales on NES often). Konami is a close runner-up.

Reebok - I love going to their store for their B2G1 sale on shoes. I always find a new style I like and go every 2-3 years.

Chik Fil A - Place is always clean and their staff is always upbeat and friendly. Even though the food is good, they might as well call the place "Chik Magnet" as I'm always seeing beautiful women regardless of which location I visit.

Amazon - Like a good neighbor, Amazon is there [online]. They help me avoid the Black Friday madness and constantly price match while saving gas money.

Firefox - I thought Internet Explorer was the only browser available until I tried Firefox. Very user friendly, loads more applications, and I rarely go back to IE.

Burger King and Wendys (tie) - Both have great burgers. Wendys has the best value menu and even though I didn't like the job experience, Burger King's listing on my resume helped me get a better job.

PixelJunk - Have they ever made a bad game??

Hershey - For one thing and one thing only: Reeses's Peanut Butter Cups - the best chocolate candy ever.

Neutral list

Best Buy - Love their sales and store layout but their employees can be annoying, especially when it comes to cell phones.

Nintendo - I use to love them until they made the Nintendo 64 and particularly that awful controller with the awkward analog stick. Knowing you have to buy Virtual Console products again if you buy another Wii system makes me want to stay away from them for the time being.

Funimation - I love them for exposing me to Dragonball Z, Case Closed/Detective Conan, and many other anime programs ... but I don't like how they release the shows in different ways over and over (or in Conan's case, incomplete).
Target - I like the store's layout and prices but I also work there so I see the bad stuff that shoppers probably don't.

DirecTV - I was liking them a lot until they dropped G4. Also, the signal goes out on the TV at work whenever there's a storm or dark cloudy skies.

Apple - I get that they have good products, but they are way too expensive. $1000 for a computer and $200-$300 for a good Ipod is nuts.

Samsung - Unlike Sony, I seem to always have products that fail on me even when I bring them to Samsung to fix and they still break down. To be fair, they were refurbs and my new Samsung Seek phone works very well.

Hate list

Brandsmart - I was reminded of how much I hated this store on Black Friday. If you want to check a price, there are no price scanners so you have to wait in line. Make that lines as there are no ropes to separate lines and people are constantly cutting each other off. Stereos are constantly blaring so you can't hear anyone speak, plus the employees act like they are better than everyone else.

Kmart - Every single Kmart I walked into is dirty. Good luck trying to find an employee and a sale item. Thrown a bunch of games and DVD's randomly on a shelf and you have their electronics section.

Comcast - The way they handled the digital switch was ridiculous. First they said I didn't need a converter box and merely changed the channel numbers. A month later, the cable goes out again and they tell me I need the box. Comcast: Leader of the Runaround.

Fox News - Do I really need to explain this one?
 
[quote name='Lyricsborn']Apple- True innovators of technology. Without them where would I get my Music?

AT&T- One if the most reliable cell phone companies ever.

Gamestop- Best place to get money for your old videogames.

Fox News- Fair, balanced and just. No one beats them.[/QUOTE]

only one of these that can anywhere close to be true is AT&T other than that idk where you got your reasoning? :roll:
 
[quote name='Number83']Surprised Kentucky Fried Chicken isnt on your list.;)[/QUOTE]I forgot.

[quote name='camoor']Sony because their electronics are typically top-notch. Have they made mistakes? Absolutely. Are their products more reliable and better quality then the competitors? Absolutely.

Microsoft is on the other end of the scale - they are the worst, they make most of their profit through monopolization and market manipulation, they are anti-innovation, and at the end of the day a world with Microsoft is a loss for consumers. [/QUOTE]Totally agree.

[quote name='crowbb']Sony - I don't HATE them but the quality of their electronics has not kept up with the brand name markup. Samsung has surpassed Sony in every way IMO.[/QUOTE]They are more expensive because the value of the yen is strong. Japanese video games for instance at a constant price, continue to get more expensive in USD. Sony has to price stuff higher just so they don't take losses. Samsung, LG, etc. don't have that issue because they are not Japanese based.

[quote name='Cage017']

Kmart - Every single Kmart I walked into is dirty. Good luck trying to find an employee and a sale item. Thrown a bunch of games and DVD's randomly on a shelf and you have their electronics section.[/QUOTE]So true.
[quote name='lokizz']i have yet to see a kmart or biglots that didnt seem like it hadnt been cleaned in ages.[/QUOTE]Only one was partially clean. Most all are terrible inside. Big Lots is even more clean IMO.
 
ok nvm i can think of one grocery store i was always "loyal" to and thats kroger. im not sure how great they are now since its been years since ive been to one but that place always had great deals and top quality merchandise. plus alot of their store brand items were better than name brand stuff.
 
WHOOPS! Wrong guy!:D

But since I'm in this thread now...

I can't say I'm loyal to any company, but there are companies/corporations that will would go to great lengths to avoid. Walmart, WholeFoods, LVMH(Louis Vuitton Moet Hennessy aka De Beers), Tiffany's, Anna's Tacqueria, and a few others.

Found the right guy..heh:
[quote name='lilboo']Amazon, imo, has it's ups and downs, but I do prefer them over any retail place or website.
Roku, because they offer a quality and affordable product that got me rid of that way over priced cable nonsense.

Other than that... I'm pretty flexible. Whatever I'm in the market for, I research and try and get the best deal possible. If it's at that omgz evilz walmart, than so be it. I'm in it for myself, so if I can save money when I can.. then I win![/QUOTE]
You forgot to mention your loyalty to Armani Exchange.:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl:
 
[quote name='CaptainKirk']only one of these that can anywhere close to be true is AT&T other than that idk where you got your reasoning? :roll:[/QUOTE]

Sarcasm Kirk dont get mad.

You're... an idiot?
When did I say I shopped there? You're just upset because I called out a bunch of low-life bottom feeding hipsters who glued the door shut to that place?

HAHAHA...or maybe you should be more pissed at your friend for not being able to get a better job and not have to deal with that shit...but that would mean that you'd have to confront that huge block of dissonance that you've displayed here and on other threads.:roll:

But yeah...I'm just an idiot that doesn't know anything about anything...:booty:
