Life with cats

Costs & buying

Purchase prices, repeat orders and what it costs to keep using things.

A useful place to start.

Separate setup from upkeep

Keep one-off purchases separate from recurring bills. Note which costs are estimates and which come from your own receipts.

Use the regular price

Record the price after an introductory offer, delivery fees and the order frequency. A discount on the first box is not an annual budget.

Include the replacements

Filters, inserts and spare parts belong in the comparison. So does the possibility that the thing you already own still works.
