Title: RRP of regular Whiskas pouches?
Post by: Mark on April 02, 2009, 09:37:30 AM
Our co-op has them on offer, 2 for £5.50 (or £3.99 each)  :Crazy: - surely that isn't the RRP?

Either this is a pricing error or these must be the extra super plus mega mega size pouches!!!  :rofl:

No I think you will find that is the price, I saw them in my co-op too. The price of both Felix and Whiskas has gone up recently. I think in other places such as Tesco I've seen Whiskas at £3.80 and Felix at £3.45. It's really shot up lately. Mind you the co-op is always more expensive anyway.

RRP of Felix is now £3.59 a box, i use it for my lot as a treat and to balance out the cost of their premium pouches but its rapidly catching up in price, no longer a cheaper treat  :tired:

I think the whiskers is £3.38 in my Tescos and its 2 for £5 at the moment. Dont know about felix cos I dont buy it  :shy: All the others I buy Gouremt/ Sheeba are nearly £5 a box. I know things are going up cos my cat shop yesterday cos over £90 instead of £70 something, and the biscuits I get were on offer  :shocked:

I have now gone back to catsan as its just gone back down to under a tenner, I refused to pay over £10 for it with the amount I go through, or the cats shall I say  :evillaugh:

Thanks - I will probably go there over the next few days - I hate to miss a bargain  :evillaugh: - I still have quite a few boxes left from the other week when it was on offer in Morrisons. I really need to find Felix senior on offer as when I went to PAH the other week and it was 3 for £7, they only had 3 left  :tired: - I ended up paying £3.59 for a box in Sainsbury's the other day  :tired:

Ok so can I ask a question?? ......... Am I stupid for buying boxes of pouches at £4.85 a box? Sheeba/Gourmet.  :evillaugh:

I personally wouldnt pay that price for that kind of food CC, I do pay more than that for some food, but at least it has 70% meat in it, Gourmet is only 4%. Anything over £4 a box has to have very good ingredients, or something like a high fibre content for me to consider it.

For some reason though, cats do seem to prefer it but I think it is quite rich. I reserve it for treats. Clapton has one tray a day with his pill hidden in a treat. He wolfs it down so quickly that he doesn't have time to notice  :evillaugh: - I can't believe that single trays of Sheba are 58p in some shops now - they were 38p last year  >:(

Morrisons were doing them 8 for £3 last week MArk. Tino only gets them either when they are on offer, or if we get some donated, I wont pay normal price for them.

I sometimes see them 6 for £2 - I stocked up in Somerfield a while ago but they are now 58p each in there  :Crazy: - Clapton loves the salmon in Jelly one and the pates. Willow loves the Beef one. Her favourite is the game one but you can only buy it in a mixed box of 4 (£1.58 I think)  and you only get one in it  :Crazy:

Thats what I was looking for, but Morrisons are now 8 for £3 - Tino loves the SAlmon and Duck and Goose, tried him on the gravy ones, but he didn't like them.

Post by: Mark on April 05, 2009, 12:16:48 PM
Willow will only eat the gravy ones, Clapton will eat all except the gravy ones, Alice & Kylie won't touch any of them  :Crazy:
