Title: Good price for Applaws?
Post by: Desley (booktigger) on August 16, 2009, 17:15:46 PM: I happened to be at the local RSPCA earlier and they sell a wide range of Applaws in individual tins, and I just need to know if it is a good price before I buy some.

Small tins - 63p (they actually have a flavour I have never seen in PAH)
Large tins - 99p (same as above)
2kg bags of dry - £12.00 (I think that is quite good, as i am sure the RRP of JWB is over £11 now, but the girls had poo issues with it)

Could someone let me know how they compare to PAH please, my home pc struggles with Zooplus.

More than twice as much as Hill's adult. I suppose it is related to the meat content but I am a bit wary of feeding it now. Strangely, kylie loves k/d so I give her a mix - it should average out to normal phosphorus levels.
