Title: Price rises at Zooplus
Post by: Tiggy's Mum on March 09, 2010, 13:13:28 PM
Does anyone buy their food from Zooplus? If so have there been price rises on the things you buy? The Bozita has gone up to £1.10 a carton and was wondering whether it's just the Bozita that has gone up or if there have been price rises accross the board.

They do a 54 pack that works out to 89p a carton but it's one flavour, I like the boys to have a different flavour each day and would be worried about them getting bored with just two flavours. Have found it for 92p a carton at Seapets (free delivery over £29 still) so have ordered 100 cartons from there instead - hopefully their packing is better than Zooplus too! They don't do the Beef liver or minced beef flavours though but they do a few fishy flavours that Zooplus don't so will see how they like Plaice and Herring too!

It's been a while between my last 2 orders, but I did think when I ordered a few weeks ago that most of the food seemed more expensive.  I ordered animonda carny, schmusy, bozita and almo nature.  I cant remember what I last paid but I felt that it was all more expensive.

I thought that might have something to do with it, apparently the £ will stay weak due to the strong possibility of a hung parliament. I'm keeping an eye on the euro exchange rate for my holiday money and it was 1.12 arround 2 weeks ago and is now 1.07  :tired:

1Euro = 90p but £1 will buy you 1.07 euros

 :shy: O I C  :evillaugh:

I remember when they were 65p  :Crazy:

I am trying to avoid the holiday subject. Alice will be distraught. She is so needy. I would rather just stay home but OH keeps talking about holidays. I won't be able to enjoy one - I only have to be upstairs in the kitchen and she howls for me.

Maybe OH can go away with a friend and I'll stay here  ;D

I still have my Thomas Cook vouchers OH bought me about 3 years ago - they must be yellowing with age  :evillaugh:

I think you should go - of course you will miss them all but they will be fine and will still be there when you get back  :hug: You can still miss them and have a good holiday at the same time, think of the golden sand and clear blue seas - not to mention all that lovely food and drink :drool;

Broadstairs has all those + I get to sleep in my own bed with no mozzies  :evillaugh:

Seriously, It would mean Alice spending a week alone. She is scared of strangers so would have no company at all.

There were big price jumps some time back, golden grey was 8.99 a bag and now 11.99, bozita was around 60p a carton when i started using it!

Maybe they're watching this as the price has gone back down now  :shify: I ordered from Seapets in the end but will stick with Zooplus in future as had a few problems with the Seapets order  :tired:
