i go to a farm shop near us. get loads of free samples enough to feed my dog for a couple of days at least LOL plus their cat litter is very good price,

Well, I had quite a fun time browsing there today but I wasn't over impressed. It didn't have all that much more than my nearest local pet shop. The carriers were quite expensive (as was nearly everything else!) and I just came away with a few doggy treats and a bag of wild bird food. I don't think I'll be going out of my way to go there very often, but I would drop in if I was passing.

I know what you mean. I go to Catterick Market on a Sunday and get things way cheaper there instead.
