Shopping around the world

Bacon and Fozzie have asked us all again to do a shopping trip around the world. The items this month are :
  • Price of internet for one month. - WAY to much!!!! Our  Cable High Speed Internet is $60
  • A pint of Ben & Jerry’s.  If you don’t have Ben & Jerry’s, post what you do have. $3.99 - We prefer Breyers  Gelato and that is $4.49
  • A six pack of Coca Cola. - Can you buy 6 packs??? We don't drink cola at out house but we checked and we could only find 12 packs of cans - $4.99 or a generic brand is $2.78. Mom buys a single bottle of sprite or cream soda for when she makes apples and they cost $1.70 at the gas station.
  • Coffee.  Whatever brand you buy, just be sure to list the brand and size. No coffee drinkers in our house  
  • A regular sized Snickers candy bar. - 79 cents 
  • Grooming.  :) Most of us anipals get groomed.  How much does it normally cost you to go to the spa? FREE - Mom does it at home - she doesn't trust groomers after they cut my fur the one and ONLY time she ever took me! She checked at our local Petco and they said bath and brush and dry is $45.99

  1. yeah, we don't buy much of that stuff that's for comparison, but we think it's more expensive here.

  2. Mommy doesn't drink coffee either! She was beginning to think she was the only one in America who doesn't go to Starbucks!

  3. Thanks so much my friend for participating today - hogs and snout kisses! Mommy LOVES the Breyers Gelato too. She can't get enough of it and it's her biggest weakness. Do you want to come groom me next time? We might have some fun! XOXO - Bacon

  4. Wow your internet is expensive but if it is high speed maybe it is worth it. The rest looks cheaper than here. Have a wonderful Wednesday.

  6. Wow, it must be good to live in the US where you can get ice cream for such a great price :o)I think home made grooming is the best, except you use a tutorial from youtube like my momma, then the result is surprising but super funny :o)

  8. Well done guys. We don't do much of that stuff. No coffee drinkers here. Our high speed is very expensive. However, it is one of Dog Dad's few indulgences.

  16. We don't have the super high-speed internet but that seems low to me. We have a party pail of ice cream sale at $3.99. We don't drink cokes at all. COFFEE we survive on coffee. Off-brand Keurig cups $5.99 or by the giant can at $5.48. Don't eat candy bars but that sound about right. Pierre's grooming is $50.

  17. Your prices are pretty similar to here. My peep didn't know about Bryer's Gelato. She's stopping by the store tomorrow to check it out.
