2026.1 | Not sure that is so good a deal | VAXWRK::SKALTSIS | Deb | Fri Dec 02 1988 16:50 | 8 |
| 1. This stuff might contain just ground up clay, but has it been
"sterilized" so as not to have any disease in it?
2. I pay $2.99 for a $25 LB bag of Cat's Pride Unscented or unscented
in the supermarket. 50 LB comes to $5.98, about 60% of what you are
paying

2026.2 | Where's your supermarket?? I paid 2.99/8 lb!! | SOFBAS::MCDONOUGH | | Fri Dec 02 1988 17:12 | 6 |
| Hmm... I'll check that out...
The Speedy Dry IS sterilized...in fact, it says on the bag
"Also an excellent Cat litter"

2026.3 | even cheaper! | PARITY::WHALEN | And may the traffic be with you | Fri Dec 02 1988 17:34 | 2 |
| Demoulas has 25 lb. bags of cat's pride for $1.99.

| I've beeing picking up the CATS PRIDE at the Waltham Supermarket
on Rt. 20 in Waltham, MA. For the past 2 months, the 25 lb bags have
been coming with $.50 off coupons on the 25 lb bags, which the
supermarket doubles, so effectivly I pay $1.99.
Is the $1.99 the regular price, or is it on sale? It might be worth my
while to truck up to DeMoulas armed with a few coupons.

| All I ever pay is $1.99 for a 25 lb bag. Anything over $4.00 for
a 50 lb bag is a rip off.

2026.7 | ZIP-ZORB | SPGOGO::NPAPPAS | Nick Pappas, SPG | Tue Dec 06 1988 09:58 | 6 |
| < Note 2026.6 by CUPMK::TRACHMAN "ZhivagoCats, Ltd..The Inn is Full..264-8298" >
Erikson's Grain Mill in Acton (rte. 27) sells ZIP-ZORB in 40 or 50 lb bags
for about $4 or thereabouts. They are a good source for reasonably priced
canned and dry cat foods as well. They tend to sell in case lots and they
will sell mixed types in a single case -- they understand about fussy
eaters who want variety.

2026.8 | I get it cheaper than any of you :-) | TALLIS::ROBBINS | | Tue Dec 06 1988 10:07 | 9 |
| I've used oil absorber for cat litter for about 12 years now because
it's so cheap --$00.00 for a fifty pound bag.
Of course Dad does sell auto parts for a living... :-) :-)
On the serious side, though, I don't know if it's sterilized
or whatever, but our cats have never had any health problems with
it, and ,in fact, I think they prefer it to the overly-perfumed
stuff sold in grocery stores.

2026.9 | Where does Dad work???? | CUPMK::TRACHMAN | ZhivagoCats, Ltd..The Inn is Full..264-8298 | Tue Dec 06 1988 12:05 | 10 |
| I have used the zip zorb from Erikson's when I worked at the Mill.
The stuff was very reasonable, but I now live too far to get there.
The only negative was the dust - but, from what I've seen lately
every type within reason ($$) is dusty.
re: .8
Does your Dad need another daughter? Where is his autoparts store????

2026.10 | too far to ship kittie litter or kitties | TALLIS::ROBBINS | | Wed Dec 07 1988 09:47 | 10 |
| re: .9
Sorry, Dad's in Florida (where his store is), as are my kitties.
I'm up here in Massachusetts
married to a man who's wonderful in all ways except that he's ALLERGIC
TO CATS! Can you believe it? If he'd told me that before asking me out
the first time, I would have known to turn him down... :-)
So my kitties live with Mom and Dad in Florida, and I had to settle
for dogs, who are wonderful, but not a replacement for my cats.

| Oh! Funny you should say that - now, the first thing I ask a
guy, is "Are you allergic to cats?" and the next thing is,
"Do you like cats?" Allergies are a tough problem.

| We get Tidy Cat III for $1.99 for 25lbs as long as I buy it in bulk.
It comes packaged two to a blister pak and I buy 25 of those at
a time (lasts forever). It is also 99% dust free.

2026.16 | Zip-Zorb in Littleton,MA,too! | SEDJAR::MIDTTUN | Lisa Midttun,261-3450,NIO/N4 | Tue Dec 27 1988 14:30 | 7 |
| Re: Zip-Zorb
You can also get this, most times, at UCF Flame (United Cooperative
Farmers-Farmers Live Animal Exchange) in Littleton, MA. It's on
Rt. 119 (west of Rt. 495). By the way....just for info., I'm not
sure they really have the 'live animal exchange' someone just told
me that that's what the name stands for. Also, they usually have
kitties there from a local non-euthanasia humane society!
