You can save a lot of money by purchasing generic food, medicine, and other items. In many cases, you won't notice any difference, as some of the companies that make store brand items also manufacture the name brand items. Even when this isn't the case, by comparing ingredients, you can quickly notice what differences, if any, exist between the products.

Many over-the-counter medications have the exact same ingredients in the generic versions that are contained in the name brand versions. However, you can save several dollars per item when you buy generic. With food items, it may take some trial and error, as you are likely to prefer the name brand items to the store brand items in some cases.
