    Subscribe and save deal on amazon. 14kg of bakers complete dog food in most variates for 19 pounds. (23.50) delivered to your door for free. And you can have it delivered by month, bi monthly etc.

    Also pampers nappies 30 pounds if I remember right (month supply) as well as Johnson sensitive wipes I'm not sure exactly what price but I think just over 10 pounds (672 pack)

    Bakers is a poor dog food, much much better quality dog foods out there, Arden Grange would be a lot better also available on amazon.

    Wipes can be found for 8 pounds

    Not sure if it still does but bakers used to contain antifreeze (propylene glycol) to give it the ' soft meaty' nonsense your vet will tell youbto avoid.

    I don't own dogs... I don't really like them either, I saw it and thought it was a good offer... And propylene glycol isn't just anti freeze.. It's also used in the food and perfume industry... It's even in food flavourings, it's liquid alcohol...

    Sorry but I have to say something here. I'm jet lagged to hell so my info might not be 100% correct here. I have a high qualification in science and decades of experience so it riles me when pseudoscience gets a forum. But we can all google. Propylene glycol is an antifreeze but it is 'generally accepted as safe'. Adding salt to water stops it from freezing. Let's ban salt!!

    Ok. Sorry. The amazon deal looks great. Let's give it a chance.

    Exactly... Propylene Glycol is an INGREDIENT in Anti-Freeze, it's a compound, not the whole thing. And in fairness, bakers and any other "bad" brand of dog food is just grand. Never understood feeding dogs and cats vet brand dog food, there's nothing wrong with the supermakets food..

    Just checked again at the prices and will edit the OP accordingly

    You don't understand because you don't like dogs. My dog is part of the family and I want her to live a long and healthy life.
    If this means spending a bit more on her food so be it. Not all of the dearer foods are good , you need to check the ingredients.

    And it's nice you can do that, but not a lot of people can.. A lot of animal shelters for example might benifit from this deal, so someone sees and could pass it on...

    I use the subscribe and save, you have to be careful about what you are ordering as sometimes you might get better value in local chains. I do buy dog food but as mentioned I would not buy the cheap stuff, if you are going for cheap dog food you will probably get better value in local store and be prepared to spend your life picking up dog poo....

    Skinners dog food is good value on Amazon and the premium brands are alot cheaper than in Ireland

    I get nappies every month, they are good value if you buy the large jumbo packs. 240 nappies etc. Again be careful on them because it will give you the option to change up the sizes and stay with same S&S but if you check you can cancel and subscribe to another offer and get same pack for better deal.

    Also if you can try and buy over 5 things in the same month on the S&S, this gives you an extra discount. So if buying something like dog food(ever 3 months) trying and bundle other items with it to get the extra discount.

    Just to jump in, the Bakers Dog Food is rough, sugary, processed muck, and it won't do any good for your dog over the years. It's like eating a McDonald's every day with a few more vitamins chucked in. All branded dog food tends to be like this. After all, Pedigree and Whisks are owned by Mars.

    If you're checking it out, you'll get 25kg of Nature's Kitchen for €25 in any local vet. Good quality, nutrition enriched, and Irish.

    Why would I feed a dog better than myself? I but

    Because u have a choice in what you eat. Your poor dog is depending on you for that he eats


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 1,638 ✭✭✭moodrater

    Don't call yourself a but.

    I think your missed the fact that the better food is cheaper at €1 per kg vs €1.67 per kg for the bakers that vets hate.
