First Liposuction, Then Lions (washingtonpost.com)

There are some things you buy in the store brand, and some things you get the name brand. Pasta is all pretty much the same, so it's OK to buy the store brand, but the sauce is nasty; get Prego or Ragu or one of those boutique brands. All canned goods are pretty terrible, but the store brand isn't usually any worse than Del Monte. Frozen foods, on the other hand, I usually go with the name brands.

And while there are some things you might want to go out of the country to get done at a discount, I don't think discount plastic surgery is a particularly good idea.
