Just wanted to say thank you to all our bargain spotters
Done a few sums and this week thanks to people posting bargain prices I have saved a total of 51.70 thats enough for 1 spay,1 microchip and
1 wormer.
Please keep up the good work folks it really does help.

That's brilliant :wow:
Can we enlist some more eagle eyed bargain spotters? If we all check the offers when we go to the supermarket, it's like giving rescues a £huge donation and it doesn't cost us a penny :Luv:
-
We could start our own Supermarket price checking team all under cover to save us loads of dosh for our kitties and the extra left can be added to our favourite charities or a donation of something to that amount
Good saving just off to Asda for doggie stuff!

Teresa do you not have a cash and carry near you? :shify:
-
Millys mum yes we do but it does not stock the food we need, runs out of stock regularly and works out more expensive than supermarket special offer prices, I stopped using it a long time ago when they refused to expand their lines.

I checked the cash & carry I use for the B&B and it worked out more expensive for cat food than buying the deals from supermarkets. It's pretty much the same for most things in there so I just buy things you can't get in supermarkets like horrible fake milk portions, mini butter portions etc. The one I go to is Bookers, maybe some of the others are cheaper?
-
Wow, that is wonderful!! My problem is I always check the cat food aisle regardless of what I have in, just in case, but I dont always remember them by the time I get home, and time to get on the PC
-
Desley, I take a notebook and I write them down.
Note from my day job - you will save money on your grocery shopping if you use a list (and you can use the back of the piece of paper to write the bargains down! ;D)

I too find that Bookers is often more expensive than the Supermarket.
-
Shall do that Christine - I have to take a shopping list, or I come back without things, but I still buy loads of things that aren't on the list, so i dont save money!!
-
Stick to your list, Desley, and you'll save a fortune. From memory, only one in five people use shopping lists at all, so you're halfway there!
I'd advise everyone to use a list, even if it doesn't come naturally, either to save money (you buy less stuff on impulse) or to save time (you don't forget stuff which of course you then have to buy later).
-
I dont buy less stuff on impulse sadly, I have a compulsion with food buying - and have been using a list for the past couple of years now (before I had the car, I used to map out what I was going to eat each night, and work out what I needed, as to use the local shops cost a lot more!!), and still haven't got out of the habit!!
