The title says it all. I am making the switch to all canned I think and Friskies is in my rotation. Also, does anyone know where I can buy the 48 pack of 5 oz for $21? Or is that just a SAM's Club thing? I can't get to SAM's this week but the cats are out of canned food.

I just have Angel and I buy the Friskies big cans 4 at a time and they are only 75 cents each at my grocery store or Walmart.. and they last her awhile. I don't have a Sam's club here - but I do know that the packs here are like $15 at Walmart but I think it's for 24 cans. I haven't seen a 48 pack around here. And that's kind of expensive to me paying $15 for 24 cans. Little cans don't last as long with her. Check your local feed store, Petco or Petsmart. :)

The warehouse club stores have the huge boxes of Friskies.

Amazon has the 48 count box: I think online pet stores like Chewy.com and PetFoodDirect.com only have up to the 32 count box.

Stores only sell up to the 24 count box.

You can buy some cans at the store for now while you place on order online or wait to get to Sam's Clube.

THE most economical way is to buy the 13-oz cans at Dollar Tree. If they don't keep enough in stock, you can order on their website and have it shipped to the store for free. If there's a Dollar Tree in your town, of course. Walmart charges, I think, $1.09 for that size can, not sure if that's nationwide or just local. TSC about the same. The 13-oz cans cost much less per ounce than any other size.

If you want to get the 5.5-oz cans, the Sam's Club pack is best. Also Sam's prices on Fancy Feast. When you can't get to Sam's, the multi-packs at Walmart aren't too bad, but chewy may be cheaper.

WM gets the same price for the 13 oz cans here in Florida ($1.08) and that's the price on the website so it must be nationwide. Dollar Tree does have the best price I have seen on those cans too. It would be a waste for me though. Mine wouldn't finish a can in one sitting and they refuse to eat canned food that has been in the fridge. Divas.

Like Willowy said, the Dollar stores sell those big cans of Friskies.  The drawback is that the variety is limited.  The only formulas that I have seen in the large can size are Poultry Platter and Turkey & Rice Dinner.  Of course that's fine for my household because these days the only Friskies recipe I give to the cat is Poultry Platter.

I have a cat named Angel too. :) She is a 13 year old Persian. Blind in both eyes since birth.

Angel is gorgeous, she looks like a sweetheart.
  She reminds me a little of my persian boy, Carleton.  Just wanted to add that I bought a few cans of Friskies to try as a rotation too.  Don't know if they have a Pet Supplies Plus store near you but if so they will match any other vendors price.

Will PSP match online prices? If I bring a Walmart or TSC receipt in, Petsmart will match the price, but they don't match online prices :/.

We have 12 babies inside and more ferals outside, so buy a huge amount of both dry and moist. I just ordered the 32 Pk variety from Chewy.com for $10.87 and the 24 Pk mariners for $11.52. Cheaper than Walmart and no tax with fast shipping. Good luck with your search. [emoji]9786[/emoji]
