    In the Port Talbot store;

    - Always night time maxi pads 89p (will be using these as maternity pads, been told they're great)
    - Seltzers 36 anti acid tablets 79p. I love these, they work really well for my heartburn :)
    - Dog foam mat beds £1.99 perfect for my German Shepherd and Mastiff as they like to curl themselves up, probably a perfect size for a medium dog to stretch out on.

    :)

    I got a storage tub (about 5 litre tall) for 50p in my local store. I think it was because they had no lids but there was one lid left and I managed to get it.

    Now the storage for the kitten's dry food is sorted :D.
