Spike's right - unfortunately it's just been on offer (how did you miss that! :eek:) although I'm surprised there was enough stocks as PaddyPaws & I really stocked up!
The last time it was on offer (that I noticed & again stocked up!) was about October last year so it doesn't seem to come on all that often

It was the normal price of 1 x 14kg bag (£10.99) so a decent saving
If you bought 3 lots (3 x 14kg + 3 x 7kg free), you ended up with the equivalent of buying 2 x 14kg bags for around £10 less and had 7kg extraGrocery Challenge £211/£455 (01/01-31/03)

if I can get the tracking under control that would be great, finding furry bed sheets is bad enough but when there's litter in there too, it's kind of gross!
I currently have to wash my sheets twice a week because I dread to think what they'd be like if I washed them less:eek:
I'll get some either once the oko has ran out or a good offer pops up, whichever comes first
Thank god I'm not the only one! My OH goes nuts when he spots the litter, I'm blind til I have my glasses on so I don't see it until it's too late
Unfortunately the GG does track....that is the only downside. I've even got a mat to catch most of it. I have a simple philosophy:
Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches.

I think all litter will track to some extent
I have their trays on carpet runner / carpet offcuts (you know the samples from carpet shops) and then a rubber mat on top of that in front of the tray
I have 2 - this one is better

and I then have a litter mat across the doorway to the rooms where their trays are

Yup, definitely agree about all litter tracking to some extent, I've just found GG to be worse than other BUT it's clumping and long lasting freshness trumps tracking by far.
I've got the grey mat above, will look to get the other mat you've posted too.I have a simple philosophy:
Fill what's empty. Empty what's full. Scratch where it itches.

I've got mats too some cream ones that have squiggly plastic to trap litter, to be fair they do trap a lot, but it still seems to track around the flat :mad: the trays are in the hall behind the front door, the only place they can go.
Im still on the lookout for top entry cat litter trays either shop bought or homemade but as it's the first thing you see as you walk into my flat they have to look good
In my last house I used a plastic crate which was hidden under the stairs behind a curtain, worked great but doesn't look that good!:hello: Hiya, I'm single mom, avid moneysaver and freecycler, sometimes :huh: but definatly
