Contest: Betterlife, My Shopping Day | Shopping for the little sick cat

Today I am in a well-known supermarket in Italy. Usually I don't shop here, but I only come here for specific products, because it has high quality products, but it's also expensive compared to other supermarkets in my area. In addition, prices have risen a lot in recent years, and have risen even more in recent months.

However, I find pet food cheaper here than elsewhere. Although today I was not lucky!

At the entrance there is a beautiful flower department which I really like.

And nearby the department for the garden furniture.

In addition, the parapharmacy department where there are usually offers and point systems that allow you to have many useful products at limited prices.

But I don't get distracted and I go straight to my mission! I have to buy some dog pate for my cat... ok that's the question. We have three cats and a dog. One of the cats has teeth and jaw problems, he was missing for days and then came back injured, maybe he was run over and he can't chew kibble.

So for some time I've been buying him pate, but pate for cats is very expensive, so I buy pate for the dog... to give to the cat ok?

These 300 g pate tins cost 0.60 Euros just a year ago, have recently increased to 0.85 Euros, and then to 1.05 Euros in recent months. In fact, I bought very few for the dog, who eats everything anyway, even our leftovers, but now with the cat problem... I let them for kitty.

Only here I still found them for 0.85 and I keep coming here, but today the surprise... they cost 0.99! Failed mission!

Summing up:

Of course we are talking about simple products, because branded products have a price that reaches 3 euros per tin equal to 15 steem.

I can't help it because the little kitty can't eat anything else, otherwise I have to blend the food, but I don't always have time. Moreover, the pate is much tastier than other food and I have to hide the medicines in it! If I use other food he notices! Cats are terribly picky!

However, I also buy something for the dog! He is happy to eat croquettes, but occasionally eats meat too, here a 1.230 g tin of bites costs 1.43 Euros. The price is similar almost everywhere, but there are brands that go as low as 3 euros.

Summing up today we spent 6,82 Euros / 34,10 Steem. We spend something like 60 - 70 euros every month for pets, plus medicines and vet when they need it.

Here's our shopping for today and here's Pisolo kitty hidden in my shoe rack, let's see if it comes out when it's time to eat!
