3 not to skimp on

I always heard not to skimp on 'Tires, Shoes and mattresses'

I've always said that two things you shouldn't skimp on are toilet paper and condoms.
- I skimo on TP by using a bidet. Doesn't hurt to buy the good stuff when you use so little.
  
  Bidets are life, it's one of the things I miss badly whenever I come back home from Finland.
Never cheap out on the things that separate you from the ground. That’s especially true for tires and mattresses since you likely don’t have multiples of each at any given time. Buy the best you can afford.
- Parachutes should probably be included here. They don't completely separate you from the ground, but definitely slow how quickly you become reaquainted. Never cheap out on parachutes.
  
  On the flip side, not jumping out of planes is probably the more frugal option
