    My Cat! She's old now and a lot more finnicky about her food. DH and I willingly eat value brands of human food but I prowl the Pet Food aisles to find the latest (invariably obscenely expensive:eek: ) gourmet treats for her.

    Sad or what????????

    In my case, probably food. I do almost all my food shopping at Waitrose (and sometimes go to Borough market, but I haven't been for a while). A lot of what you get at Waitrose is good value - more expensive but better quality - and they're better than most supermarkets at selling fresh food in small quantities or loose, but I'm sure I would save some money if I were to buy the basics at my local Morrisons. But I can't be bothered either to do a second supermarket shop each week or to try to do a shopping list for more than a week at a time.

    Up until yesterday it was CIGGIES.

    Worked out that I was spending a minimum of £2800 per year on slowly killing myself. No More.
