steerpike Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Has anyone in the UK noticed large increases in food costs recently? 1kg tub of Natural Instincts meat pre Xmas = £3.20. Same tub yesterday = £5.20 This might be unique to my supplier but I hope it isn't a sign of things to come. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DocsDoctor Posted January 6, 2022 Share Posted January 6, 2022 Tiger has dry kibble which I order online from here - have always found them very reasonable and reliable. I just checked on that, and on the tripe sticks I also buy from there, and so far the price remains unchanged. But human food prices are undoubtedly on the rise - I have noticed that with my own shopping, and so far as Tiger is concerned he was recently switched from a twice-weekly tin of Lidl sardines at 31p, to Asda's cheapest at 34p, after Lidl's went up to 35p . There are also of course still quite frequently gaps on supermarket shelves, thanks to the ongoing issues with shipping and deliveries - I keep bigger stocks of some things than I used to, e.g. the sardines and also the nappy bags I use as poo bags, because both will disappear altogether for weeks at a time. Quote Clare with Tiger (Snapper Gar, b. 18/05/2015), and remembering Ken (Boomtown Ken, 01/05/2011-21/02/2020) and Doc (Barefoot Doctor, 20/08/2001-15/04/2015)."It is also to be noted of every species, that the handsomest of each move best ... and beasts of the most elegant form, always excel in speed; of this, the horse and greyhound are beautiful examples."----Wiliam Hogarth, The Analysis of Beauty, 1753.

HeyRunDog Posted January 7, 2022 Share Posted January 7, 2022 Grace's kibble is still the same price at the moment She either has the kibble from The Greyhound Trust at £40 for two 15kg sacks delivered free or Gain Greyhound Maintenance from Millbry Hill at £32.99 for two 15kg sacks for including £6.99 shipping.

steerpike Posted January 7, 2022 Author Share Posted January 7, 2022 Thanks for the useful responses. I realise I gave a very limited sample! This may be a one off due to supply issues at this vet practice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
