On line store  Reply with quote  

I just ordered some Harrison's bird food from this website: http://www.birdsafestore.com/ and I was very happy with the service. They offered the best price, and it took about a week to get to me in Canada. And in the meantime I was sent tracking information about my order from UPS, so I would know exactly when I would get my package. With duties and taxes it ended up costing about $6 more than me buying it here in Canada, but I would pay more than that in gas money driving all the way to Oakville, which is the only place near me that sells Harrison's. For those in the US though, I think it's a really good price. $28 for a 5 lbs bag!

I know, it is so cheap! In Canada it costs $56, which I just calculated to be exactly 40 euros too!

There's an idea Laughing we'd probably save lots of money on parrot stuff! Maybe we can move in with Cathy? Laughing

I think we can live with Cathy on some conditions:
- That we spend the saved money on toys for Manu & Poppe
- That we win the lottery first, to buy even more toys he he!
What do you say Cathy? Smile

Ya know, it cost something like $48 for Harrison here... Not sure what's the equivalent that is to the Euros... and I'm pretty sure that's the 5lb bag.. I may have to check those prices again though.. So expensive!! but I guess it is the best stuff around to give to the birdie though...

Bih, that's a good price still, because Astralian dollars are the same as Canadian dollars, so yours is about $10 cheaper.

Thanks again Shirin, $$ always helps Smile I'll see if I can ge my Fids to eat this stuff and then if I need to order it again, I'll be back to them! I'm over here grumbling at the price, but if I can get most of the way off seed, then that's money I won't be spending on that side Wink What can I say I'm broke AND cheap!! LOL

Hey Shirin,

I'm just curious, how much is shipping from that online store? and do they international shipping outside of the US and Canada? I have seen a lot of site that only does the Northern American continents that's all... Cheers
