Buckle end of the belt
Before the year 2000, the "buckle end of the belt" was considered one of the worst punishments you could get from your parents for misbehaving, usually reserved for serious issues such as stealing or bullying someone.
Instead of going home and simply getting "the belt" which was a bad punishment already, the "buckle end of the belt" was considered an even worse punishment due to the buckle usually being made of metal.
It was highly regarded as the worst punishment you could receive back then. However, over the years it has been replaced with less physical punishments such as WiFi restrictions.

Buy cheap, buy twice
When you see two identical products in the shop, one is expensive but made by a well known company and the other is by a brand you've never heard of but is considerably cheaper!
It comes from the fact that most cheap knocks are of poor quality and as a result it'll probably break shortly after buying meaning you'll have to buy another one. Usually when you add the price for the first and the replacement item together, it would've been cheaper to buy the better branded item in the first place.

Steve: Oh my god dude, I bought a new TV three months ago and it's already broken!
Peter: Bugger, that sucks, I'm surprised that Sony TV broke so quickly.
Steve: No, I changed my mind and didn't get the Sony. I found this Gujarati Electronics one which was a lot cheaper so I got that instead!
Peter: Gujarati Electronics? Never heard of them! You know what they say mate, buy cheap, buy twice! Shoulda stuck with the Sony!
