Does it matter what kind of liquid fabric softner you buy?

Question

Just wondering, we went to the store today and we paid about 3 dollars more for snuggle when we could have gotten a knock off variety cheaper. I have always wondered about this. (By the way the reason I like the more expensive brands is the smell, I know that is wierd but I like it)

Thanks...

You have to expirement.  To be honest I used Tide laundry detergent for the longest time and could have sworn it was better than the rest.  But then I got tired of paying the higher prices.  So, I tried Costco's Kirkland brand....it was c**p!  The powdered stuff stayed in my clothes and I ended up having to wash my darks several times to get it out.  BUT then I tried Gain...still cheaper...but it worked just as good as Tide.  I know my answer was about detergent but I think the same will apply for fabric softeners....you need to expirement.  I think it is worth it if it will save you the money in the long run.
