Have just signed up to have the cat food delivered monthly. So just wondering what else everyone subscribes to.

I always have five items to get the 15%, but end up cancelling, moving and adding rather than keeping to the same five.

This is partly because I work out that an item is cheaper or the same as the supermarket price and then it's more expensive next time I need it.

So far, I've had cat food, bin bags, hair dye, essential oil, 20l white vinegar, 10l washing up liquid, mascara, kg bag of prunes, bird seed ...

Never thought of changing but always having 5
I ordered cat food before and they increased the price after 2 months I didn’t realise they could do that

Have you looked at zooplus for cat food? It’s cheap anyway, delivery’s free over £29 & they also have a discount scheme where you pay a small amount upfront & then get 7% off everything.

www.zooplus.co.uk/shop/cats

I did once get cat food from amazon pantry but it took up a huge chunk of the space & I didn’t think it was worth it. (They’re great boxes to save for future use though Grin)

I order most pet stuff through Zooplus, but one of our elderly, and now toothless, cats needs tinned food. One month, it was a deal on Amazon so put it on S&S.

You do need to watch the prices carefully.

Zooplus do Royal Canin too - I get the vet care biscuits for my cats. There isn’t much they don’t do in fact Grin

Box of 40 Felix pouches (not AGAIL) is £10, same as amazon, & 7% off on top.

A special shampoo for DD, toilet rolls, coffee pods, 5L washing up liquid (looking forward to using less plastic through this), sensitive stomach cat food.
Need more ideas to vary them (as I do not plan to use 5L of washing up liquid in a month lol) so keep them coming, ideas and recommendations!

Baby wipes
Cat litter
Cat biscuits
Wet food

Do u not find the toilet rolls and fabric softener cheaper in b & m ?
Do u still get the 15% off if some items are every 2 months ?

OP posts:
Cynderella · 17/09/2018 11:43

You get the 15% for five items. So if you have some things every month and others every five months, you need to juggle around to make it five items for each delivery.

I tend to buy in bulk so only need a delivery every three months. I never have the same items each time. So, if I have five items including coconut oil, but then find I don't need it or it's too expensive, I delete that and add something I do need/is at the right price.

TheQueef · 17/09/2018 13:16

The loo rolls look expensive at 33p per roll 45 roll packs but the middle is smaller so it works out about the same iykwim.

Watch out for the vouchers for signing up to items, you can cancel the second order so benefit on it.

Alfiemoon1 · 17/09/2018 19:57

Thanks will look out for voucher
