I added an include/exclude toggle for Brands. Take a look and let me know if this works for you.

O wow, that's an interesting approach. That would've never crossed my mind without posting this on HN. Appreciate the suggestion.

Thank you. I appreciate it. I love that site and always sat around thinking about building something like it, but for a product I buy frequently. And I finally built it.
