    Poster who feeds dog chicken thighs


    Actually this is a money saving concept as it could prove cheaper than buying supermarket dogfood and healthier for the dog or cat.

    £5 voucher tomorrows Daily Mirror, unfortunately £45 spend nowadays, but as I feed my dog a chicken thigh a day buy 6 packs = 30 thighs and that`s £12 spent.

    How much is that per kilo please? The frozen chicken wings at my pet store are £5.95 for 2kg. I wonder whether Aldi might be cheaper?

    Sensitive Baby wipes - I prefer Lidl's to Aldi's, there are 80 in the pack (not 72) and they are really fragrance free, Aldi's aren't, I can still smell them....

    as someone asked how much - Lidl 79 p

    Was in Aldi the other day and picked up one of their 'living' lettuce. A woman asked what it tastes like. Seriously ? It's lettuce :rotfl:

    actually, there are different varieties in the same tray (at Lidl), I pick them apart and plant in the garden. Some loose leaf green, cos, lollo rosso and even bronze arrow, which is my favourite lettuce (previously only available via the heritage seed library!). Taste mix altogether is like lettuce heaven :rotfl:

    Wow, your doggy struck gold with you! :D
    In reply to several posts, she has 1 thigh with her main meal, Aldi thighs are £1-99,a kilo I think, I buy the packs with 5 some have more, but they are smaller, and I can eat them as well. I have a greyhound. That is 40p a day, and it`s pure meat, not processed with any rubbish from the abbatoir.
    Do I need it or just want it.
