Pet food.

Have you noticed how much pet food has gone up in price in local supermarkets?. I can no longer afford to buy there unless they're on special. I have two cats and one dog and it's costing me almost as much to feed them as it does me each week. I love my pets and always try and get them the best food I can afford. The price of the fancy Feast tins are literally going up in price each month. I resorted to shopping for my pets at Aldi, where price was more reasonable, but even they have gone up by $.30c a tin. I have shopped online with sites such as Pet circle or Petbarn. Where they were very reasonably priced. But now they have joined the rest and I can no longer afford the food there either. I guess it's just a sign of the times along with everything else. But! There are a couple of little gems that I have got onto. Every now and then the Reject shop brings in very cheap pet food of well-known brands. As has Bunnings. These are now my go to shops where I stock up. Thank goodness for them!

I found that the aldi dog food were really upsetting my dogs stomachs. I've since switched to more expensive foods to keep them happy but really struggling with the costs.
